Error: invalid omeka_version_constraint

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Hello,

Excited to try out this module with Omeka S. I've just installed Omeka S 1.0.0 beta and attempted to install FileSideload 1.0.0 alpha but am receiving this error in the Omeka S Dashboard in place of an Install button: "Error: invalid omeka_version_constraint." Took a quick look around but not sure where I've gone wrong. Any clue what might be going on?

Thanks!

The reason you're seeing that error is that the current version of FileSideload requires a newer version of Omeka S. The "official" preview release of FileSideload will come alongside the version of S that it requires (1.0.0-beta2).

If you want to try it out now, you'll have to also check out the current version of S from Github.

One question: does it just say "invalid omeka_version_constraint"? It should also be showing you the constraint (i.e., what version is required).

Hi, As far as I know I have the most recent version of Omeka S available--where might I find 1.0.0-beta2?

Yes, it says only "invalid omeka_version_constraint". No version is given.

Thanks!

That's the thing: we haven't released beta2 yet, which is why there's no release of FileSideload yet, because you need S beta2 to use FileSideload.

You're using just the in-development code of the module from Github. If you want to try that out, you can, but you'd need to also use the in-development code for S, the "develop" branch.

Both the S beta2 and the official beta release of FileSideload are right around the corner, so you could also just wait for those to be ready in the coming weeks.

Ok, thanks. I was chomping at the bit. :)
