XML error when trying to install sample data

  • XML error when trying to install sample data

    Posted 16 years 10 months ago
    • Hello everyone, ahead of time thank you for your help.

      Have loaded up a few templates before and have never seen this error, but it happened twice today with 2 different templates.

      When clicking on "Install Sample Data" server returns error "Error: the XML response that was returned from the server cannot be processed."

      Rocketlauncher pack: Joomla_RT_Chromatophore_j15 and Joomla_RT_Catalyst_j15

      note: installed terrain tribune_j15 last night with sample data and it worked fine.

      Any ideas??

    • I am not entirely sure about that error but I got the error when I accidentally clicked it twice, so you may wish to check your database to see if the tables have already been inserted.

    • deleted & re-loaded site, still same error when trying to load sample data.
      Only clicked on it once.
      Was able to continue with setup then access site but with no data included.
      Strange....

    • Thanks! Great suggestions, there are a number of threads talking about this problem.
      When I get a chance to work on this, I'll post my results.

    • Found something interesting.
      Thought I would check out the version of Joomla in the Rocketlauncher downloads.
      The ones giving the XML error seem to be 1.5.2, but those with 1.5.3 seem to work just fine and install the sample data.
      Looks like a bug in 1.5.2. Might be something to look at in packing the downloads with 1.5.3 if that's something that could be done relatively easily.

      Thanks for your help and I hope this helps also.
