Hi,

I have found the following change fixes the blank screen problem with the admin screen "Edit Settings"...

Swap the last two lines around in the function "function editSettings( $option )"

It was...

   HTML_extcalendar::editSettings( $option );
   include( $comp_path.'/admin_settings.php');

Swap around to this and save changes...

   include( $comp_path.'/admin_settings.php');
   HTML_extcalendar::editSettings( $option );

I didn't have to change anything else.

Hope it helps someone else.

I don't get this error on any of my servers so i can't test it. We would LOVE some independent confirmation on this long-standing, annoying problem.

If this is real, it would be an awesome fix! Thanks richandleacv.

Hi,

I meant to say, the text to swap around is in the file admin.jcalpro.php approx line 447.

Hopefully a few people can try this out and confirm it works for them too, as it has worked for me.

Rich.

Hi richandleacv,

Thanks a lot for this fix. Ive been playing with this component and this blank screen thing left me puzzled.
Thanks for posting the solution. I now have access to the settings page.

It didn't help me. I still get the blank screen. I would really love to try out this component. To the admins/developers: If you need any details from me regarding this problem, please send me an email.

Aztrid, does the GZIP disable solve the problem?

Aztrid, does the GZIP disable solve the problem?

No, I also tried that a while ago.

However, I tried installing the jcal component on a different web hotel. It seemed to work without problems (except it complained about the Danish languae file but i should be able to fix that myself).

It is probably my service provider, one.com, who is not up to scratch with technologies. I think I will just move my sites to another server, if this problem cannot be solved otherwise

Well, it seems that your issue is different from the GZIP issue, which is important to know. Thanks.

Worked perfect!  Thank you.

This change has been committed to the repository and will be available in the next release.

Why can't you update the current version? The download i got today was bad when you have the fix already.  Can't you push out a maintenance release?  This is a serious issue that would stop anyone with out programming knowledge in their tracks.

1. Themes between versions are not compatible, so pushing out numerous releases is a pain for many using customized templates. We plan to address this in the future, but for now we are stuck with it.

2. The repository has never been tested in the wild, so releasing it as a solution to bugs in the stable release is not wise.

3. The repository version is not complete. Numerouse contributors have their tasks at varioous stages of completion, preventing a whimsical release.

4. There is a work-around available as described in the JCal Pro documentation and a sticky thread here on the forum (disable GZIP) and a fix available here on the forum. That's quite a bit of coverage.

admin.jcalpro.php

I don't see that file at all . Do you mean admin_events.php ? I don't see it in the include directory either. Of course this happens when my boss asks if he can add stuff to the calender and I'd never checked that out from the front end  tks.

The path is  / administrator / components / com_jcalpro /

And the fix worked!  Thank-you!
