Comments extension: 500 Internal Server Error

Teyo_Tyree · October 11, 2007, 8:25am

I am a new radiant user am have some difficulty getting the comments
extension working.

I have svn exported the required extensions code to:

/var/radiant/extensions/comments and /var/radiant/extensions/admin_part

and have successfully migrated the database:

rake db:migrate:extensions

If I enable the extensions and in the admin interface and click on any
of my existing pages or the comments tab I get:

Status: 500 Internal Server Error Content-Type: text/html
Application error (Apache)

Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action
(like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html

I also get an error in the production log:

NameError (uninitialized constant

I assume it has something to do with the route in
comments_extensions.rb, but I don’t know enough about rails
applications at this point to really even hack a fix.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Teyo,

Which comments extension are you using? I know there’s a couple;
mine’s at http://svn.artofmission.com/svn/plugins/radiant/extensions/
comments/

One thing I noticed is the path to your extensions doesn’t look right:

/var/radiant/extensions/admin_part
“admin_part” should probably be “admin_parts”
… and I’m not sure about “/var/” - is that the same as “/vendor/”?

Hey Ryan,

I am indeed using your extension. Sorry about the typos in my first
post it was late. The correct path is
/var/radiant/vendor/extensions/admin_parts &
/var/radiant/vendor/extensions/comments.

Are you using the latest version of Radiant?

If not, you may be having problems with the routes that the comments
extension is using. I recommend updating to the latest Radiant. Let
me know if you already are, and I’ll look into it further.

So I completely reinstalled radiant on a virtual machine and
reproduced the same issues I have with the comments plugin. I just
don’t know how to proceed. Any debugging suggestions would be
awesome. I really want to use radiant for a project, but I
absolutely have to have some commenting functionality.

Teyo_Tyree · October 11, 2007, 7:59pm

Ryan,

I am using radiant 0.6.3. Then latest version of admin_parts and the
most recent version of your comments extension.

Teyo_Tyree · October 15, 2007, 5:46pm

Hi Teyo,

You’ll need to install the will_paginate plugin (svn://errtheblog.com/
svn/plugins/will_paginate). Make sure to put it in:
RAILS_ROOT/vendor/plugins/will_paginate

I’ve updated the README file to reflect this requirement. Sorry for
the confusion.

I am still trying to debug the issue. The routes seem to be loaded
correctly. From script console:

Additionally if I connect to my development environment:

http://radiant/admin/comments I get the following error:

NoMethodError in Admin/commentsController#index

undefined method `paginate’ for Comment:Class

RAILS_ROOT: script/…/config/…

I am running rail 1.2.5 so pagination is still built in.

Still working on debugging this myself but any help would be awesome.
