Problems installing Joomla templates

ray_finkle said 1 year, 1 month ago:

Hi guys. I’m at wits end here with the problems I’ve been having installing templates. I’ve gone through the Joomla template manager and it always times out. I’ve used your FTP manager but there are always errors after unpacking. The remnants of what has been discovered through Joomla are there but aren’t accessible or selectable options.

Here’s a few of them:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in D:Hosting8859765htmljoomlalibrariesjoomlainstalleradapterstemplate.php on line 530

Fatal error: Call to a member function setDebug() on a non-object in D:Hosting8859765htmljoomlalibrariesjoomlainstalleradapterstemplate.php on line 543

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your time.

From the supplied errors, there appears to be multiple scripting errors within the template.php file. You may want to verify with the provider of the template that there are no issues with it.

Additionally, for further assistance with installing a Joomla template, check out the link below:

http://docs.joomla.org/Installing_a_template

If you can provide any more information such as the URL or domain where this error can be seen, we may be able to take a closer look.

Hi there bryceh.

Thanks for your reply. All of these templates are legitimate. The errors are occurring with every single one I attempt to upload through Joomla admin and via FTP. Most recently after attempting a new batch, these were the messages that occurred:

Fatal error: Call to a member function setDebug() on a non-object in D:Hosting8859765htmljoomlalibrariesjoomlainstalleradapterstemplate.php on line 543

I’m no stranger to installing Joomla templates on other hosting options, but I’ve never encountered such a variety of errors. The domain is tomhodgson.net, but there’s nothing visible yet for you to see, and at this rate, probably will never be. Thanks in advance for all your time and help.

Note: Those last two error messages on line 102 appear now whenever I try to enter the Template Manager in the admin panel, which has now become completely inaccessible aside from those errors appearing.

I found a thread on Joomla forums where other users has similar issues in Joomla 2.5 for installing and discovering new templates that you may find helpful:
