I have installed PM GROWL module and downloaded the jgrowl plugin. The popup is not showing. The process I have implemented is, I uploaded the module put the jgrowl-1 folder into the pmgrowl folder. Activated the module in the administration area and should it just work? I have sent a private message and nothing........ Should the folder inside pm module folder be named jgrowl-1, that is just what it was installed as?

I have changed the name of the folder to jgrowl and makes no difference.

did you clear your caches?

newitt’s picture

newitt CreditAttribution: newitt commented

No I have not. If I go to Admin>Config>Perfomance and click on clear cached data will this do it. People are using this site, so will anything be lost?

nothing will be lost - just the "cache" which is for faster access, so while that is rebuilt, the site may be a bit slower. Otherwise there should not be any data loss issues and this normally happens when running the update functions anyway.

okay cleared cache still no popup. I sent a private message from a dummy account to my admin account and it just comes up on the normal messsage(1).

On that settings page, fo you have js aggregation on?

If so, for a quick check, turn it off, and then have a look at the page source. check where the page is trying to load the jgrowl files from and whether they exist in the correct location.

The only thing I can find is aggregator in modules. I activated this it did nothing. This error comes up everytime I go to send a message.

[Wed Dec 02 12:15:23 2009] [crit] [client 000000000] (13)Permission denied: /var/www/vhosts/domainname.com/httpdocs/sites/all/modules/pmgrowl/jgrowl/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable, referer: http://www.domainname.com/node/141

The referer in the error message changes every time a message is sent.

Also there is no .htaccess file in the jgrowl folder is there suppose to be?

Please help........frustrating

Do I install jgrowl from http://stanlemon.net/projects/jgrowl.html#options or do I install it from the drupal site. which is for drupal 5 aswell as the update? http://drupal.org/project/jgrowl

Please could someone tell me a step by step instruction on how they did it and where they got the files from?

NaheemSays’s picture

NaheemSays CreditAttribution: NaheemSays commented

from the first site and NOT the drupal project for it.

What I did was get it from there, unzip the folder into the pmgrowl directory. then it started working.

You need to make sure that there is a file called "jquery.jgrowl_minimized.js" existing in the "sites/all/modules/pmgrowl/jgrowl" folder.

Cleaning up the issue queue. If someone still has issues, try my patch at #672534: Requirements check for jgrowl and check the status overview page.

I have done everything mentioned above... no luck. Working fine on my development machine (mac osx).

minimized and css are there ...
flushed cache...
uninstalled... applied patch... reinstalled...
still no joy...

On that settings page, fo you have js aggregation on?

If so, for a quick check, turn it off, and then have a look at the page source. check where the page is trying to load the jgrowl files from and whether they exist in the correct location.

I did this ... here are all the sources:

src="/misc/jquery.js?Z">
src="/misc/drupal.js?Z">
src="/sites/all/modules/fivestar/js/fivestar.js?Z">

src="/sites/all/modules/img_assist/img_assist.js?Z">
src="/misc/autocomplete.js?Z">
src="/misc/textarea.js?Z">
src="/misc/collapse.js?Z">
src="/sites/all/modules/tribune/js/tribune.ajax.js?Z">
src="/misc/jquery.form.js?Z">
src="/sites/all/modules/calendar/jcalendar/jcalendar.js?Z">
src="/sites/all/themes/litejazz/js/jquery.pngFix.js?Z">

src="/sites/all/modules/pmgrowl/jgrowl/jquery.jgrowl_minimized.js?Z">
src="/sites/all/modules/pmgrowl/pmgrowl.js?Z">

both files are where they should be... I'm sure I'm not seeing something obvious.

I disabled Tribune ... no change

Please advise

For those that have pretty much 'tried everything' and still can't get the popup divs to work, maybe this will help you. I've been beating my head against a wall for three days on this thing and this morning finally (while working on something else) figured out what was keeping mine from showing. I decided that I wanted 'Clean URLs' turned on, but the test (in D6) said my system configuration didn't support it. Well, I read up on it a bit and found that turning on RewriteBase / would let me use the 'Clean URLs' option. I thought "Cool", then noticed up in the right corner were all the dang test messages sitting there looking pretty in their little jgrowl popups!

So it seems that the pmgrowl needs RewriteBase to be turned on (whether you actual 'use' the 'Clean URLs' option or not).

Maybe this can help prevent someone from pulling their hair out or giving up on PMGrowl. ;)

ok, that explains a few things - in pmgrowl.js the following string are present

Drupal.settings.basePath + 'messages/pmgrowl_json'
Drupal.settings.basePath + 'messages/pmgrowl_close'

which seem (from the above report and from reading the code) to not work well without clean urls.

Ok, looks like we need a patch then to call the urls correctly. Re-titling the issue.
