There are many on this forum who would like to help you. Could you provide some additional information regarding your ProcessWire installation, third-party modules installed and any other special setups/configurations you may have made?

Sorry you ran into those problems, however it was suggested that you try the 2.8 version instead of going for 3.x version right away.

Sorry about that, I fully understand. You can also try the Legacy Version 2.8.62. "Same as 3.x but without namespace, for full 2.x compatibility." Upgrading from ProcessWire 2.7 Upgrading from 2.7 to 2.8.x Login to the admin of your site. Edit your /site/config.php and set $config->debug = true; to ensure you can see error messages. Replace your /wire/ directory and /index.php file with the ones from here. When you've confirmed a successful upgrade: Replace your .htaccess file with the included htaccess.txt file, OR if you have made changes to your .htaccess file, you may want to apply any changes manually (see instructions in section above). Remember to restore the $config->debug setting back to false in your /site/config.php file.

Is there a critical reason that you are still working on an older version of ProcessWire? Have you tried to update to a current version? Thanks.

If you are not having this problem on a fresh install but only on one particular PW installation, how are you sure that this is a PW side issue?

I would suggest that you coordinate with your hosting provider, as you have many infrastructure errors that only they can correct. Please make sure you give them these same errors listed and they should be able to help you. Once that has been taken care of, let's see if you continue having problems with installing ProcessWire.

Some hopefully helpful links: https://processwire.com/api/variables/pages/ https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2016/07/the-aesthetic-of-non-opinionated-content-management-a-beginners-guide-to-processwire/

If there are issues with a given module, you can always post your query/questions in the sub-forum for that module: You can also report technical issues/possible bugs with modules directly at the particular Project Page (Github) location: https://github.com/adrianbj/AdminRestrictBranch On the ProcessWIre Modules Page, for each module --- it lists the links to both the Forum Support and Project Page (Github): http://modules.processwire.com/modules/admin-restrict-branch/ I would encourage everyone to use these essential resources to let the module authors know about bugs, possible changes or any other issues with their module. Most module authors are willing to make changes to how things operate based on the comments or queries from module users.

You would install both. The first module backs up your MySQL database. The second module listed has many options to make the backups you created with the first module automated. That way you don't have to manually make a backup.

I see you have added additional information. Please check that the database listed has the correct permissions/privileges: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/privileges-provided.html Your web host provider can assist you to tell whether this database still exists and provide guidance on getting things working again. Good Luck.

Sorry to hear that. For the future, you may want to look at the following modules for backup: To get a backup that will save a copy of your MySQL database: https://modules.processwire.com/modules/process-database-backups/ To automate that process, the following module is recommended: https://modules.processwire.com/modules/cronjob-database-backup/ Note: There are many other useful backup modules for ProcessWire that will provide some relief in case you have a problem.

I don't know if you have this installation on a web host or local. If on a web host, most (not all) companies will be able to restore a MySQL database for you.

I agree with all that you are saying, however I also think that people want more choices. It may be complex setting things up, but what does it hurt to find out how to make it work? I know I am interested in learning how to make the different AWS services work with ProcessWIre.

Go to Setup/Templates: You should now be able to add any additional fields that you need.

Can you please be a little more descriptive of what problems you are having, so someone can adequately help you (i.e. what errors are you getting)? Thanks

Here are some links that should give you some insight to where CSP is at: https://www.w3.org/TR/CSP2/ http://caniuse.com/#feat=contentsecuritypolicy2 https://content-security-policy.com/ https://www.keycdn.com/blog/http-security-headers/ Microsoft - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/dev-guide/security/content-security-policy Google - https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/security/csp/ Mozilla - https://hacks.mozilla.org/2016/02/implementing-content-security-policy/ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CSP Opera - https://dev.opera.com/extensions/architecture-overview/ It is also known (reported) that Safari may not be so CSP compliant. I don't believe that Apple has an official Content Security policy. Best Regards, Charles

Could you please explain what you actually did (please give some details) and maybe someone can help you? Thanks.

I would be interested in this service.

A Followup This was an interesting conversation by all parties. What I didn't get was what actual syntax that was put in the /site/config.php file. While this may not matter to more experienced users, it makes a difference to others. My sites don't use Multi-Language and I was still confronted with the error that @EyeDentify noted in the original post when updating an existing site to ProcessWire 3.0.55 This is what I put in the /site/config.php file to make error go away /** * Installer: SetLocale Setting * * This is now needed since ProcessWire 3.0.53 to set local information * */ setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8"); As @matjazp stated, it doesn't really matter where in the file this goes. What was confusing to me is that most other settings in the /site/config.php file started with $config and it wasn't clear whether this setting needed to follow that style. As I said, it may not be important to experienced PHP users, but knowing what to put when confronted with this warning is helpful. As an aside, it would also be helpful to know the exact syntax that is needed if using the init or ready files. Maybe I have missed something in reading all this that should have been clear to me and excuse me if I have. If what I have used is incorrect, I ask that someone provide the correct format (styling). Thanks.

@justb3a, I see you are extra busy today releasing new modules. Great work!

Yes, I agree. I also believe that It's the infusion of new talent (new users) that will help make that possible. Being able to convey the web building/designing process into words takes a special talent. Unfortunately, in the Tech world it's not always the most talented that have the teaching/mentoring gene. I believe that as time goes on, there will be individuals who will step forward, volunteer their time, and make the technical aspects of ProcessWire easier for the new users. I've been here since 2012 and have seen a remarkable increase in participation and better (more complete) documentation. The ProcessWire community is still quite small compared to others (WP, Joomla, Drupal), however the exchange of information on this Forum is the best that I have ever seen.

@mikeuk, Sorry that you had problems with ProcessWire. We are glad that you have taken the time to try out ProcessWire. Hopefully you will hang in there and will stick with this vibrant community. Numerous members are extremely helpful and go out of their way to help people with their particular problems. I believe anyone can learn from this community and we also would benefit from your future contributions. It can be extremely difficult when things don't quite work out as you had planned. Fortunately, we all learn from these disasters. The important thing is that our community will always be there to help troubleshoot or explain how things work. I believe with time, you will look back and be very pleased that you hung in there with us.

Are you able to test with PHP 7.x? If so, it would be interesting to see what the results are. Thanks.

Maybe rarely used by some, however I make use of it. There are many ways to do many things in ProcessWire, i would hate to lose any functionality or convenience. My two cents on this issue.
