Question: 

Hi,
i tried to upgrade the package 2.1 (which is still 6.13) to (core) 6.14.
Backed up db and files
Disabled alle the modules (except core) some sub(?) moduels are greyed out (could not unchech it)

After saving* I got this Fatal error: Call to undefined function simplenews_user_is_subscribed() in xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/walkawayght.com/includes/common.inc(1655) : eval()'d code on line 4

Any ideas what this means?

* I think it was that error just after saving. I cant login anymore I m getting this error allways trying to login at http://walkawayght.com (its deleted now)

Hi,

Check the simplenews block. I am guessing you have entered some custom php code in the 'show when' block. See if there are any ' or " in there and retype them.

5. try updating that module

Submitted by xdemianx on Tue, 10/27/2009 - 21:07.

try updating that module (simplenews and all simplenews related), might be incompatible with 6.14, anyway what does your /includes/common.inc line 4 says? just wondering.

6. No, you don't need to do

Submitted by dorien on Wed, 10/28/2009 - 09:19.

No, you don't need to do that. It's the custom code that's inputten in the the block under the visible when section.

Please paste that code here.

If you delete it, you will also get the upgrade working. The newletter block will just show always, not only when the user is not yet subscribed.

7. I had to delete the complete installation,

Submitted by wmb on Fri, 10/30/2009 - 10:24.

because i couldnt go back or log in after this error. So i will try to reproduce it with another test installation. The only explication i have is, that i have renamed the newsletter to Walkawayght newsletter, but not change the code.
<?php
$match=TRUE;
global $user;
if (simplenews_user_is_subscribed($user->mail, 19)){
$match=FALSE;
}
return $match;
?>
Can the change of the name have caused that?

Submitted by dorien on Fri, 10/30/2009 - 13:08.

You need to make sure that you replace the 19 with your vocabulary for newsletter.

Also, if you updated simplenews, see if the latest module still has a simplenews_user_is_subscribed function (see in the .module file if you can find any). I thought it was still there.

9. what do you mean with "your

Submitted by wmb on Sat, 10/31/2009 - 17:40.

what do you mean with "your vocabulary"? I did not changed anything in the actual/last installation. So what should i change?
I have only changed some design/theme issues, not updated the simplenews or other module. Hence I thought it must work with the original package, but it does not. I disabled all modules again step by step. FOA it worked, but after 3rd saving the error apears again. Fatal error: Call to undefined function simplenews_user_is_subscribed() in /home/walkawai/addons/walkawayght.com/includes/common.inc(1655) : eval()'d code on line 4

The desaster is, after that I can not log in anymore.
I have to upload again the whole package and to try again if it works or not!

I have purchased the package, because you promised running it "out of thre box". I knew thats not possible for a Drupal newbie, but now im struggling with issues, they have nothing to do with my little knowledge of Drupal.
Pls update the package, it wasnt updated since August 12, 2009, to core 6.14 or/and correct that simplenews-script.

Hi,

I just reread your first post and you said that you disabled all of your modules. Than that's probably it. Try upgrading without disabling them, for a small upgrade it's ok.

11. thanks, but the error has

Submitted by wmb on Mon, 11/02/2009 - 12:35.

thanks, but the error has occupied all. After uploading 6.14 or uploading only the sitefolder, the error remains. No login anymore (i have set the site to offline modus, as recomended everywhere). In all instructions i have checked, they say i should disable the modules also with a smal upgrade.
Ok. I will upload the package again and try to upgrade without disabling the modules. I hope this will work.
Dorien, thats imho is serious bug, you have to fix.

I upgraded the core of the package to 6.14 easily. But it is essential to leave the modules as they are.

I'll be doing the rest soon and upload when complete.

me? nope, i was looking for a good cms so i found drupal, then i tried to make a website but it was so basic so i found doriens book and bought it, then, 3 months later, i created The FoodLinks. i dont know much about code either i cant even make my own php scripts but i have learned a lot of css and html, but yeah takes a while to get used to drupal functionality but when you do... you get addicted xD

>i have learned a lot of css and html
aha: that´s it from my point of right brain view. css and html is still coding for me ;))
I would need a real right brain tool like Rapidweaver (Artisteer is not really ready for working) for drupal . Maybe the upcoming Aquia Garden comes closer to that.

I have a lot of content here to "convert" in social networks here, translating, etc. If you are interested in a colaboration, pls send a note offline.

22. The package is updated.

Submitted by dorien on Wed, 11/11/2009 - 20:08.

The package is updated.

23. Thanks Dorien, I have already DL the package some days ago.

Submitted by wmb on Fri, 11/13/2009 - 11:54.

(first version) I have noticed that it was not complete. (I have DL it again and now it seems complete). In the first version the folder "includes" was missing, so i used the includes folder from 6.13. What is this folder for? Can i exchange the folder includes or have you changed more? Or will it make trouble, if i only exchange the folder includes?

24. Hi, The package is complete,

Submitted by dorien on Fri, 11/13/2009 - 13:23.

Hi,

The package is complete, I did not change it. The includes is a standard folder from D6.14. You need to use the newest.
