    I just spun up a new WP 3.6.1 install. It successfully downloaded and installed CBOX 1.0.5.1, after Activate, it gets to Install BuddyPress/Continue to intall plugins. On the next screen are installing plugins/connection information with my ftp credentials (which are cached but I’ve also tried entering them again). I click “Proceed” and it just pauses for a bit and goes back to the Install BuddyPress/Continue screen.

    Where would I find errors?

    by the way, the connection/ftp information works in other contexts because I can install or delete other plugins using the same process.

    I suspected file permissions. My hosting is Windows/IIS, and I need to grant write permissions where required– where is it required?

    I tested by changing wp-content and all below to 777 for the IIS user, then trying the Install BuddyPress/continue -> and I got the “Installing Plugins…” on the second attempt (the first one timed out). You should document your file permission requirements.

    Now Activating Plugins… next error, suggestions?

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare bp_core_enable_root_profiles() (previously declared in C:\inetpub\vhosts\PepperellHamlet.org\httpdocs\wp-content\plugins\buddypress-group-email-subscription\bp-activity-subscription-digest.php:697) in C:\inetpub\vhosts\PepperellHamlet.org\httpdocs\wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-core\bp-core-catchuri.php on line 332

    function bp_core_enable_root_profiles() in the bp-core-catchuri.php is not protected with if ( ! function_exists( ‘bp_core_enable_root_profiles’ ) )

    As it is in the bp-activity-subscription-digest.php

    Isn’t this a fundamental bug during install? Why am I hitting it? Seems like they are activated in the wrong order by CBOX.

    Starting again.. ..this time CBOX does the activation and moves on. This is the kind of trial and error I would hope to avoid.

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.
