Install errors on EasyCreator 0.0.2 ALPHA

[keran]

Hello,

Thanks for great component. I have some errors :/
I download today the new Joomla 1.5.7 and EasyCreator 0.0.3 and try to instal it. When i install the extension (firefox) it takes a moment and finally displays blank "white" page :/ When i see at the components menu EasyCreator is not there but it is copied to admin and components folders. I try also to run it by typing ..index.php?option=com_easycreator and it shows but when i try to "start" new project or other links it display the: 

500 - An error has occurred.

View not found [name, type, prefix]: starter,html,easycreatorView

Huh,That's not so good 
I think the files have not been copied completely.

Do you install local or on a web server 'out there' ?
Do you have ftp enabled?

You could also try one of the alternative installation methods or simply copy all the files into your "administrator/components" folder as in V 0.0.2.

Please report any further experiences

Very good and mostly important useful component!
Can save a lot of time and help developer in understanding extension development

I have a question indeed regarding naming convention of classes...

I generated a component with template number 4 (comp with admin interface).
The name I gave it is Was
As a result I obtained two controller classes named respectively:
WassController (main controller)
WassControllerWas

I expected the classes to be:
WasController (main controller)
WasControllerWass
(this by compairing other joomla extensions like com_weblinks, shipped with original joomla package)

The same thing happens for views and models...

Am I right or do I miss something?

Thank you very much for your time,
Cristiano

Hi Cristiano,
thanks for your kind comment.

Yes, you are missing something... this type is based on the following tutorial:
http://docs.joomla.org/Tu...n_Administrator_Interface
(note "Hello" and "Hellos"...)

The 's' is added to show it's plural

You will get *two* models (in backend):
was.php
and
wass.php

Cheers,
Nikolai

Glad that it works now. Of course you will not get a link in components menu when the component is not installed 'normally'. If you install local, you should have no problems installing through the joomla installer. Maybe you need to raise the upload_file_size value ?
You can also install EasyToolbar if you would like a 'clickeable' link

A new version will be out soon with some enhancements Please look at our Download section
