Hi coming back to you about the issue for the installer and maybe its some calling backs to Stackideas still in this installer? Get stuck and when going back to EasySocial backend I got this info see attachment image..
 
What you think? I still struggeling with new host but I could install other extensions there but is not 100% up and running there yet
 
Cheers!

Please deactivate Foundry REST API plugin and other old, outdated StackIdeas instances and retry the installation with the version 1.3.

We tested this installer successfully on Joomla 5.4+ and 6+.

Our EasySocial full installer doesn't call for a valid API key unless there are other SI-instances installed and active on your site, which try to trigger an additional launcher/download from the StackIdeas update site. 

Alternatively provide login credentials to your site (private message or via email) so I will assist you to install it 😊

Hi Stephan 

You cannot "update" EasySocial.
Just take the newest full installation package from your downloads-section (version 1.4, 7.12.2025) and drag/drop it onto the extensions/install area in the backend.

It doesn't require an API key, as this is not a launcher but the full-installer package.

It will upload completely, unpack and install as it should.

Best regards,

Ok I understand now you see understand the problem? 😁

CreativeGraphics Support

I understand now what happened (see attachments).

There is a corrupt EasySocial installation from 2023.

A lot of remaining files are still in the key-directories of the component. 

Like that, I think it won't work. 

Some of these old files, I removed to test. 

But there may be a lot more of them.

I guess, we must start from scratch with EasySocial.
Deleting everything (incl. DB-Tables) and do a clean fresh install... 😞

Hi ok this is the latest update?

0

So pls let me know today bcs I want to cancel this hosting today later or tomorrow latest.. looking forward to hear your comments
 
cheers!

This was due to the Module "EasySocial Toolbar". 

This is/was a special module, which is not included in the newer EasySocial packages anymore.

It should have been removed via maintenance script back in January 2024.

I deactivated the toolbar module on your site and everything went back to normal 😊
The all-inclusive module for all SI-extensions is the "StackIdeas Toolbar".

It has been the replacement for the EasySocial Toolbar Module.

This is/was one of the remaining files from a 2023-installation on your site, too.

I retested the full EasySocial installation on your new/test-hosting and can confirm that it all completed successfully on your restored site (from Akeeba).

No error 503 (server error) appeared. 

I close this ticket as it is hosting-/a server related issue (execution time, RAM).

Thank you very much.
