Phoca Forum

Save failed with the following error: Category must have title . [b]SOLVED[/b]

This means that it was not possible to add a category to the Database.
I had this message after ALL my phoca installations.
The sollution is simple.
I Saw there was no Table called Phoca... or something like that . This means .... probably not possible to write to the database. Tables should have been made during installation of PhocaGallery

I made next directories Writable for the USER which had the admin rights . The admin rights where set to : user Admin, but the GROUP belonging to was USERS ... And USERS don't have admin rights. (SO THAT IS A BUG)

So I changed all directory owners of Phoca program from USER into: Group: Administrators (chmod 777)

Directories: TMP, components/Com_phocagallery, and Images/phocagallery

AFTER changing these settings you have to INSTALL PHOCAGALLERY AGAIN, and choose for INSTALL (NOT upgrade).

and.... then it WORKS ....

Problem SOLVED

Success. Michel Blezer

Hi, thank you for the info.

I am getting the same error Save failed with the following error: Image must have title with Phoca Gallery 3.2.1 and Joomla 2.5.6
there is no phoca tables in the datables

when I unzip com_phocagallery_v3.2.1.zip install.sql is empty, install.bak.sql seems ok



thank you

Hi, see similar posts where this is explained. the install.sql is empty because install sql scripts are stored in php script (to be able easily update phoca gallery or other phoca extension). Install.sql.bak file is there to be ready make manual installation in case mysql server has some problem while standard installing of Joomla! components.

that's not a good job for any reasons

There are reasons for this (for example, there were no way to make update skripts changed the columns in database, etc.).
