Has anyone had problems with installing 4.1, on step 9? It hangs at that step for me... Only the header loads, no errors.

I had the same problem, but the store seems to have installed ok. I haven't found anything that isn't working yet, but I still wonder if everything that the install was suppose to do got done.

I found out the issue is due to an as-yet-undetermined-by-me setting in PHP. To get X-Cart to fully install properly without quitting during the install procedure, I had to modify install.php

Search for any instance where 'init.php' is included in a function. add the following code somewhere within that same function (I usually add it either right over the 'include' statement, or after the opening brace of the function):

Code:

        global $HTTP_SERVER_VARS,$HTTP_GET_VARS,$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS,$HTTP_POST_VARS, $HTTP_POST_FILES;

        global $reject,$__name,$__avar,$GLOBALS,$HTTP_ENV_VARS;

What happens is prepare.php is called by init.php, and depends upon several variables in PHP being available for parsing. Those variables are not automatically registered as globals within a function (on my PHP install), so that results in prepare.php failing, killing the install script.

Wow, seems there are problems with this new version. Should I wait a little bit a new version with patchs? Thanks for your advices.

You shouldn't be surprised if there are bugs in this release. You should go back in this forum to the release of 4.0.0 and look at the dates between releases and the number of bugs fixed.

4.0.1 was released 2 weeks after the initial release and had fixed OVER 60 bugs. It wasn't until 8 months later with the release of 4.0.12 when it was finally announced as stable.

Of course going from 3.5 to 4.0 may have been a more difficult transition than going from 4.0 to 4.1?

I am a new customer and wasn't around during the 3.5 to 4.0 upgrade. Were the software changes drastically greater than the current upgrade? Can we expect a stable release sooner than 8 months?

the 3.5 change to 4.0 was fairly drastic, this 'unstable' period should be noticeably lesser, imho

Just completed an upgrade from 4.0.18 to 4.1. Everything is great except for the following:

1. It took quite a while to complete the upgrade because it initially failed on the following:

Code:

ALTER TABLE xcart_pricing ADD INDEX pv (productid, variantid);

I decided to walk through the upgrade process removing items it was choking on until it completed. This took a while.

2. master and other accounts cannot login. Not with the password that was already set, 'master', or empty. I have a script I used with b1 that helps to reset the password and it worked without modification (in case you have a copy of my script, this might be helpful). It's odd that the same problem still exists. Hopefully I won't have to write something to convert passwords from 4.0.18 to 4.1 to fix the rest. :wink:

3. xcart_categories_subcount is empty making it impossible to search products or see category products from the admin. Anyone have a fix for this? Otherwise, I'm hoping the tables line up close enough to make manual export/import possible.

4. The xcart_images_* tables are empty. No products have pictures.

It is quite possible that #1 is causing the rest, but I'm not sure that is the case.

Have fun! :D

When I go to the advanced search page and I try to perform a search in any of the extra fields that I set up under 'search also in', I get this sql error.

Code:

I hope X-cart will release ver 4.1.1 update soon to address all of these issues mentioned.

Is the 4.1.0 version ready to rock? or is it still a bit unstable? I looked at it when it first released and posted then. I read through all the forums threads since then..

Balinor any advice? Exp users?
