Admin Config Double Entries

[Michele]

Just installed a new version of 2.1 along with the patch.

I first tried to install it and it failed because I had not transferred my domain and the install script failed to recognize the ~ needed in my account name to access the files on my new host.

I transferred the domain name and reinstalled.

Now while everything seems to be working so far, I do have a strange thing going on.

From the Configuration menu - any option presents me with double entries.

For example:

Path & URLs
Path & URLs
Base URL to script
Base URL to script
Site title
Site title
Path in filesystem to script
Path in filesystem to script
Directory where eSyndiCat is installed
Directory where eSyndiCat is installed

It doesn't seem to be doing this anywhere other than the Configuration settings. i.e. create categories, etc.

Can I fix this somehow without having to delete everything and start over? Keep in mind I'm on a stupid dial-up account and re-uploading will take a long time.

Same question asked here: http://www.esyndicat.com/forum/about9203.html

Please close this thread as the other has included a screen shot.

Hi Sergey, Michael has done a lot of work for me this morning!

It's a bit rough around the edges - but I'm back online!!!!!

He has already fixed whatever was doing that. Hopefully, he knows what fixed it so we can document it here and help the other person.

Hello, Michele!

There isn't any strange in this issue)) I don't know what is the reason. Probably you try to upgrade in several time or something else...

But - the issue of such broblem - double rows in your `config` and `language` tables.

Be careful with managing of you database!)) I am glad that can help you with this problem)

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

I just installed eSyndiCat Pro v2.1.02 for the first time today. I'm having the same Admin Config menu 'Double entry' problem as what's posted in this thread.

Was anyone able to fix this? I don't see an answer on the forum.

What do I need to do to fix this? Or, please send me a link to another thread that lists how to fix this.

Thank for your speedy help with this.

Hello MootMop,

Try to run this query via admin panel of eSyndiCat or phpMyAdmin:


DELETE FROM `prefix_config` WHERE `id` > '204'


Don't forget replace "prefix" to your real table prefix.
