I followed the instructions to load the Solspace Tags (Version 3.0.0).

Per their instructions,

Go to the Modules tab in the ExpressionEngine Control Panel, find Tag in the list, and click Install.

But no “Tag” exists in the list.

At this point, what I did was remove the Tags tag from very specific templates that we had them in. That has resolved issues with those pages rendering.

Now, when I go back into config.php and change

$conf['allow_extensions'] = "n";

to

$conf['allow_extensions'] = "y";

I get the log in, then when trying to go to the control panel, I get the following error:

Error

Unable to load the following extension file:

ext.tag_submit.php

When consulting their install instructions, it specifically notes:

NOTE: Installations on ExpressionEngine 1.x DO NOT USE the ext.tag_submit.php extension file.

If I look at my previous back ups, that file WAS loaded into the extensions folder.

The reality at this point is that I can now get back into the control panel. I was using very few extensions, and it appears the Solspace Tags might be at the root of the original problem, so I *may* just be OK proceeding without that anyway.

Here’s the only issues I see now:

1. No access to Extensions Mgr (minor for now)

2. Something happened to my File Upload Preferences. When I try and add an image using Upload File, I get this msg:

The path specified in your image upload preferences is not correct

I believe we usually just use “Main Upload Directory”

My hosting company is trying to tell me that the Server Path should be something like:

/www/htdocs/domains/s11/01703/www.firenews.net/images/uploads/

but no luck with that.

Fixed the upload issue with Sue’s whereami.php trick!

cfp700, if you take a look at your exp_extensions table, the entries with extension_id 38 through 47 are related to Tag. If you remove those entries, the Extension Manager won’t try to load the Tag extension any longer and you can delete any Tag-related files from your EE installation. The Extension Manager should then load normally again.

thanks.

where/how do I view teh exp_extensions table?

cfp700,

where/how do I view teh exp_extensions table?

A popular tool for managing a database is phpMyAdmin. Most hosting packages give you access to this tool. This is what you would use to delete those rows in your database.

I would check with your host and they should be able to give you a direct link to phpMyAdmin or tell you otherwise.
