Hi!
When I try to add a new extension, I always get a fatal error after I push "Apply changes" button:
<i><b>Fatal error:</b> Exponential did not finish its request
The execution of Exponential was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.</i>
The "Regenerate autoload arrays for extensions" button makes the same error.
The eZ and the Apache log files are not content any error about it.
I'm using eZ 4.1.3 with eZ Components 2009.1.2.
Any idea?

Hi,
strange that even Exponential-errorlog does not contain any information about that error. so we are a bit struggled here.
a few questions:
a) can you activate other extensions or does it throws errors too b) has your webserver-user proper permissions to write and create files in the settings/override and/or settings/siteaccess/xxx folders and filesc) also make sure the files in var/autoloads/* are writeable by the webserver-user
if everything fails, try to activated the extension manually by editing the proper files (site.ini.append.php in settings/override as example) and then run 'php bin/php/ezpgenerateautoloads.php' in the shell (i assume you are using linux as server).
btw: what extension are you trying to install? perhaps there is a known issue somewhere.
lets hear how things are going and don't hesitate to check back ...
cheers,chris

hi you will find the real error in the php error log or just enable php to display error: at the top of the index.php add error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set("display_errors", 1);

2 suggestions:
1. Try clearing the cache - either via the admin interface, or via by running the command-line script in /bin/php/ezcache.php --clear-all
2. Check your DB permissions your user has - http://ez.no/developer/forum/install_configuration/mysql_database_privileges

Most likely it is eZ Components related issue as extension activation mechanism require it. However you have to first change error reporting as suggested above to get more details.
