Problem Installation Fabrik 3.5.1 to Joomla 3.6.5

[Jalex123]

Hello Comunity

Please I need your support , see when I installed Fabrik 3.5.1 to Joomla 3.6.5, there is error message:

Warning: include(../../../administrator/components/com_fabrik/header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/viapresi/public_html/components/com_fabrik/helpers/html.php on line 10

Warning: include(): Failed opening '../../../administrator/components/com_fabrik/header.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/opt/alt/php56/usr/share/pear:/opt/alt/php56/usr/share/php') in /home/viapresi/public_html/components/com_fabrik/helpers/html.php on line 10

could you give me some advice? is Fabrik 3.5.1 compatible to Joomla 3.6.5 ?

Thank You so much for your time,

Regards,

Jaime Alex Tumialan

Fabrik is compatible to J!3.6.5
I can't see any problem installing Fabrik3.5.1.

Which php version are you running?

That error looks very wrong. There is no administrator/components/com_fabrik/header.php file, and components/com_fabrik/helpers/html.php does not try to include it on line 10, or any other line.

Can you look at your components/com_fabrik/helpers/html.php file, and compare it with ...

https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/blob/master/components/com_fabrik/helpers/html.php

... and see if somehow an extra line has gotten inserted before the ...

defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');

If so ... we need to figure out how that got in there. It certainly isn't in our install ZIP or in github. It looks to me like some kind of hack.

Found this thread because I was getting the same error. I checked my /com_fabrik/helpers/html.php file, and yes, it says 'include('../../../administrator/components/com_fabrik/header.php');' on line 10. I removed it and reloaded the page. Error's gone. FYI.

Thanks!

Where did that package file come from?

That line of code has never existing in our code, in the ./components/com_fabrik/helpers/html.php file, and there has never been a headers.php file. I've checked our package ZIPs on our downloads site, and they don't exist in that.

So I'm at a loss as to how this has shown up in the code. It would seem to indicate that someone is hacking sites.

Hi, i try today (new test version) upgrade joomla to 3.6.5 and also new fabrik 3.5.1 and i get also this messages and in file components/com_fabrik/helpers/html.php i have also code like this:

/**

*
* @package     Joomla
* @subpackage  Fabrik.helpers
* @copyright   Copyright (C) 2005-2016  Media A-Team, Inc. - All rights reserved.

How did you install Fabrik?
Downloaded package via Upload Extension package file?
Install from web?
Joomla's update manager?

I've found and fixed the issue in the pkg_fabrik_3.5.1.zip.

We'll be making an announcement tomorrow, meanwhile I suggest you check to see if there is a ./administrator/components/com_fabrik/header.php file on your system. If so, delete it, download a fresh copy of the latest install ZIP and reinstall it.
