If after your failed installation you can see JReviews in the components menu in the Joomla administration, you can skip directly to step 3.


1. [Joomla 1.5] Find the highest id in the jos_components table and update the numbers 116, 117 and 118 below by using the highest id + 1. If the highest id is 200, you would replace 116 by 201, and so on.


2. [Joomla 1.5] Copy the queries below, with your updated numbers and run them in phpMyAdmin.

INSERT INTO `jos_components` (`id`, `name`, `link`, `menuid`, `parent`, `admin_menu_link`,`admin_menu_alt`, `option`, `ordering`, `admin_menu_img`, `iscore`, `params`, `enabled`) VALUES(116, 'jReviews', 'option=com_jreviews', 0, 0, 'option=com_jreviews', 'jReviews', 'com_jreviews', 0,'js/ThemeOffice/component.png', 0, 'limit_special=10ndirtitle=1n', 1); INSERT INTO`jos_components` (`id`, `name`, `link`, `menuid`, `parent`, `admin_menu_link`, `admin_menu_alt`,`option`, `ordering`, `admin_menu_img`, `iscore`, `params`, `enabled`) VALUES (117, 'Configuration& Management', '', 0, 116, 'option=com_jreviews&act=about', 'Configuration & Management','com_jreviews', 0, 'js/ThemeOffice/component.png', 0, '', 1); INSERT INTO `jos_components` (`id`,`name`, `link`, `menuid`, `parent`, `admin_menu_link`, `admin_menu_alt`, `option`, `ordering`,`admin_menu_img`, `iscore`, `params`, `enabled`) VALUES (118, 'Enter License Information', '', 0,116, 'option=com_jreviews&act=license', 'Enter License Information', 'com_jreviews', 1,'js/ThemeOffice/component.png', 0, '', 1);


3. Create the two JReviews component folders, if not already present, in:

  • /administrator/components/com_jreviews
  • /components/com_jreviews


4. From the JReviews component zip package, extract all files, except jreviews.s2 to the /administrator/components/com_jreviews/ folder


5. Rename jreviews.s2 to jreviews.zip and extract the files/folders to /components/com_jreviews/


6. To finalize the installation, login to the administration and enter the following url:

  • http://yourdomain.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_jreviews&url=install&sql=1
