Error after upgrade moodle - essential theme didnt start

Hi all,

I am new to moodle. We are testing moodle using the essential theme. Everything works fine.

Today I have updatet moodle to the latest stable version 2.9.x. After the upgrade I copied the essential theme folder to the updated moodle directory.

Now I get the following error message:

Fatal error: Class 'theme_essential\toolbox' not found in /opt/moodle-2.9.1-2/apps/moodle/htdocs/theme/essential/layout/frontpage.php on line 27

Thank you for your support

The file is there, honest: https://github.com/gjb2048/moodle-theme_essential/blob/MOODLE_29/classes/toolbox.php

Check that the file is really there in your installation and you've done a 'Purge all caches'.

When you say 'copied', did you follow the instructions in the README.txt file?

Hi Gereth,

the file is there: ... /theme/essential/classes/toolbox.php

In my case I would like to update moodle. Here is the manual I used:

https://wiki.bitnami.com/Applications/BitNami_Moodle#How_to_upgrade_Moodle.3f

After the moodle upgrade I copied the folder "essential" back to the updated moodle directory:

.../theme/essential/...


Thnx for your support

Did you do as the document told you? Did you delete any tables?

Hi Detlef,

That should have worked.  I've used Bitnami before with Essential.  I'll look again when I get a moment.

Kind regards,

Gareth

Can you describe the steps you took to upgrade your site, as I have never seen htdocs in the Moodle directory before, and wondering if the problem stems from the URL not being correct.

Hi Mary,

'htdocs' in a path like that I've seen and used in a Bitnami installation.  Its fine and will be ok from a running Moodle perspective.

Cheers,

Gareth

Well something is obviously Wrong...so just trying to get more information...if nothing else might help rule out endless possibilities.

Cheers

Hi,

in deed I am using a bitnami installation. Its a quick and secure way to test solutions. The basic installation of moodle works fine.

Hi all,

I tried the moodle upgrade using an alternative theme. Everything works fine!

I want to thank you for your support.
