Hello,

I've got everything quite up to date - but it seems I have a hard time getting to run any theme.

Drupal version : 8.0.0-dev
Drush version : 7.0-dev
PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.9

But:

 sudo drush pm-download adaptivetheme
PHP Fatal error:  Class 'Drupal\Core\Session\AccountInterface' not found in /core/includes/bootstrap.inc on line 63
Drush command terminated abnormally due to an unrecoverable error.                                                                                                                          [error]
Error: Class 'Drupal\Core\Session\AccountInterface' not found in /core/includes/bootstrap.inc, line 63

If I try to use the backend, I receive a white page of death. (with the URL and with the tar.gz upload)

Same with other Themes as well. :-/
What do I do here?

Thanks,
Transmitter

PS:
Just extracted AT Core and Pixture Reloaded into my theme directory and got an error when I wanted to install AT Core:

Uncaught PHP Exception Drupal\\Core\\Config\\ConfigValueException: "theme.at_core.mobile key contains a dot which is not supported." at /core/lib/Drupal/Core/Config/ConfigBase.php line 223

Do I just need to wait or do I do anything wrong?

-dev is being worked on nearly every day. I suggest working with the most recent beta release.

You mean of Drupal Core?

I'm using: drupal-8.0.0-beta9.tar.gz to install - but drush says otherwise. Maybe it's just a bug/display error?

AT only has a dev release currently - if I'm not mistaken?
https://www.drupal.org/node/519586/release?api_version[]=7234

Do you have a theme up and running? I couldn't find any demos/screenshots of a finished theme either.

Anything else ready to use - or simply too early?

use in what way? for production its too early. For testing 'core' and such its fine. Production sites should not be built on D8 until RC's are released. Mainly because beta to beta upgrades are not supported.

Use in the sense of .. it's being displayed and I can see anything that looks like a design.
I tried now like 15 themes - 13 throw errors and can't be used (as a theme) at all.
2 seem to work without major errors but have now css, no stylings whatsoever.

So since then I'm wondering whether I do anything wrong or there are really 0 themes out there which display anything that looks like a page/design?

And no, it's not for production.

you'll have to search the D8 issue queue for similar reports. It's quite possible the theme system is being worked on. I've only tested D8 with core themes.

First D8 theme I ever used successfully outside of core was Red. That was over a year ago on a pre-alpha version of the D8 core. I'm now using D8 beta10 which just came out a few days ago. I would imagine the handful of themes back then would have expanded a tad by now. The old list was: red, litejazz, fontfolio, business, mayo, garland.

Transmitter’s picture

Nope - I tried all of your suggestions with a fresh D8, beta10 and none is usable. Garland seems to be close to almost not major technical problem - but that would be the design I'd like to avoid looking at.

Probably we'll just have to wait some weeks or month until the theme developers caught up. :)

The first error

sudo drush pm-download adaptivetheme
PHP Fatal error:  Class 'Drupal\Core\Session\AccountInterface' not found in /core/includes/bootstrap.inc on line 63
Drush command terminated abnormally due to an unrecoverable error.  

is because you are trying to use the wrong version of Drush. For Drupal 8 you need to use the latest version of Drush.

Regarding the Drupal 8 themes, there will be errors until the beta versions stabilize and there are less changes to the core :)
