Maybe I'm missing something, but it appears it's just syntax errors that are stopping the execution. Those syntax errors can be fixed and submitted as a pull request to get them permanently fixed in the Joomla core.

Great. Well to answer your question above then, no, I cannot submit a pull request, since I am not a developer. Neither is tot-to. We are just end users submitting this bug.

No problem (I'm not a developer either, so you're in good company). Thanks for submitting! I'm confident this will end up being a simple fix for a developer, so hopefully we should see it fixed soon.

Can you guys try the fix at #1695 please?

Regarding https://github.com/yajiedesign/joomla-cms.git, it installed fine, but I cannot find any languages. Somehow, the connection to the language server doesn't work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

OK I've got postgres set up on my laptop - I'll try and replicate this!

I've tried to install patchtester extention in order to test your patch by uploading a zip file from my local computer and got this error on the web page:

Is there a way to download a file that can be used with patch utility in the installation dir? I would try that.
Should I post another bug report on extention installation?

Oh, I didn't noticed that there my username, e-mail and password hash are included in the error message. Could anyone please mask them?

#4650 go to github here. And you can edit your post

on the original issue your reporting though - are you using postgres or mssql?

Thanks! I've managed to edit my previous comment.

As I indicated in the origial report, I use PostgreSQL-9.2.9 on Gentoo Linux. Why did you decide I could be using Microsoft SQL server?

Because I completely missed you were the person who initially reported the issue :D The patchester bug has been fixed. I'm just waiting for @mbabker to release a new version of it!

I tested this one using PostreSQL-9.3.5 on Centos 6.5 with php 5.4.16. What I did:

• install the current staging branch
• changed in libraries/cms/installer/adapter/language.php the line as done in #1695; the other line in administrator/components/com_admin/sql/updates/postgresql/3.0.3.sql is already change in the current staging branch
• did a fresh install with the "Extra step: Install language"
• set "Activate the multilingual feature" to No and leave the rest unchanged Result: the installation went fine.

So I did a second attempt, same as above, with setting addionally the

• "Install localised content" to Yes Result: the progress bar run forever and the installation did not finish successfully.

One thing that I also noticed:
With the current staging branche I get the following error, when I try to install a language in the backend (Extensions -> Language Manager -> Install Language etc.):

0 Database query failed (error # %s): %s SQL=SELECT "update_id" FROM "abcd_updates" WHERE element = 'de-DE' AND type = 'language' AND client_id = '' AND folder = ''

With the one line change in libraries/cms/installer/adapter/language.php the error goes away!!

This has been fixed in 3.4 alpha 1. So I am closing this. Thanks everyone for the report and testing of potential fixes!!
