SP Pabe Builder - Extension without Name and Type

Asked by Alvaro 11 months ago Last activity 11 months ago

To move my sites, I create quickstart packages from scratch.

The problem I've had with Joomla 5.4.0 (and possibly Joomla 6) is that when installing Joomla with SP Page Builder, I get the following error message: "The install adapter does not exist." and the installation stops.

After investigating, I found that the problem is an extension record with no name and no type in the #__extensions table. This record is created when SP Page Builder is installed, and the only field with a value is PARAMS, which has the value: {"sppb_color_variables":[]}

The Joomla 5.4.0 installer uses refreshManifestCache(), and when it encounters an extension with no name or type, it doesn't know which manifest to refresh and stops.

I think this needs to be fixed. If it's a bug in the SP Page Builder installer, it should be removed, or if this is necessary for sppb_color_variables, they should improve it because an extension without a name or type isn't possible.

Regards

Hello,

Thanks for your time.

I can see the issue. You’ll need to manually delete two specific entries from your database.
Please open your database and, in the #extensions table, manually delete those two rows.
After that, you can continue with your process.

Thanks for your understanding.

Best regards,

Hi, yes, I had deleted it. But in my case there was only one. I suppose the other entry appears when installing Easystore?
Now that they're aware of it, I imagine they'll improve it in the next version.
