Question

I tried to install the CalendarPlugin. Adding CPAN-Modules HTML::CalendarMonthSimple and Date::Calc completed successfully. Then I extract the tgz-File in my Twiki-Base-Directory and changed the file permissions. But if I use the %CALENDAR%-Tag, it doesn't work. So i tried to run the installer-script and get the following error:

Checking dependency on HTML::CalendarMonthSimple....
Can't locate object method "findUser" via package "TWiki::Users" at CalendarPlugin_installer.pl line 563, <STDIN> line 1.

What I have to do?

I can confirm this as well but don't know what you mean by "layer-8-problem". I'm a newbie .. can you give me a paint-by-numbers solution?

Thanks Sean for the enlightenment. However, still can't get the installer to work. I've tried the upgrade option and watched it load in the files and such, but still gets stuck on "findUser". I've made sure that the plugin is enabled under /configure as well. Checked all dependencies.... Still no luck.

An installer error isn't necessarily a show-stopper: I can't ever use an installer, because my server isn't connected to the internet.

Fortunately the installers are a convenience and not mandatory. Have you tried an manual installation? Just extract the files, copy them to the corresponding directories on your TWiki installation, reset the file permissions, activate it on the configure screen, and re-test.

Thanks, Sean!! I figured it out -- it was relating to an earlier problem I had where my TWiki installation was looking at a different perl installation than my command-line was giving me. Once I fixed that (making sure the perl modules were installed) I simply did the manual install and enabled it in /configure. Works great now.

Closing as question has been answered.
