TOPIC:

I have quadruple-checked to make sure I'm using the right version. the package is:

Joomla4_breezingforms_191_UNZIP_FIRST.zip

Inside the package, is a file called build_943.txt



installing package: com_breezingforms_joomla4.zip


I have installed this over the top of my previous installation of BreezingForms multiple times.

I have never used any custom code for BreezingForms -- have never used any pieces or scripts.

I have cleared the cache on my browser, just in case.


Still I am getting the error, Class "JRequest" not found.

Ok, can you please enable the debug mode of joomla and then post the output of the errors that occur at the bottom of the screen when you get that error?

PS: btw. did you try clearing your browser cache when re-downloading? I had that once, too that I got the same file from download cache in Windows.

Regards,
Markus

First, as per my previous response: "I have cleared the cache on my browser, just in case."

Here is the output of the debug when I attempt to display a form:

Alright, this is the content plugin. I have recently fixed this, as well. You need to re-install it from the main package, as well as you had an outdated version of it.

You nailed it!

I did as requested and the forms are now showing up and that error is gone:

For what it's worth, as I still have debug on, I'm getting some warnings which may or may not create a problem. Upon loading a form, I get this one:

<b>Warning: botBreezingForms_replacer(): Argument #1 ($matches) must be passed by reference, value given in /home/customer/www/rescueparrots.org/public_html/stage/plugins/content/breezingforms/breezingforms.php on line 124</b>

When I press "submit" on that same form, I get the following:

<b>

The last error having to do with stdlib.english.xml -- I did follow the instructions to install that package, but I didn't get a warm and fuzzy feeling that it actually did install it. While the package is not sitting there waiting to be installed anymore, I never really got a confirmation that it installed properly when I tried to do it.


For what it's worth, after turning debugging off, I'm still getting the TCPDF Error listed above.

I found a potential fix to the botBreezingForms_replacer() warning in Forum entry #280665, but the file recommended there (Breezingforms_2022-12-27.zip) seems to predate your fix, because it put me right back into the JREQUEST error situation again.

Is there something else from the 943 build package I can install to fix this?
