cannot install admin panel manually with gravstrap skeleton.....

[4evermaat]

Grav v1.1.12 - Admin v1.2.7

I tried downloading gravstrap skeleton 1.2.1 . Displays fine in my browser with WAMP 3.0.6 and PHP7.

Then I proceeded to install the grav admin plugin (admin, form, email, login) and I have this error:

Twig_Error_Runtime thrown with message "An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Identifier "messages" is not defined.") in "partials/messages.html.twig" at line 1."

Grav + admin skeleton works just fine. Then within admin panel, I add the gravstrap theme. And then I just copy the sample /user/pages and user/config from the gravstrap skeleton and adjust the user/config/systems.yaml and user/config/plugins/blog-injector.yaml settings. All seems to work ok.

Seems to work fine. But aren't skeletons supposed to 'work' out of the box so to speak?

Skeletons are supposed to be downloaded from https://getgrav.org/downloads/skeletons in the form of "complete" ready-made packages.

While you can apply a skeleton, there is no testing involved in this situation, as all can change depending on the steps you took.

I tried downloading the Gravstrap theme, and installing Admin

• bin/gpm selfupgrade (update Grav first, as the shipped version is old)
• bin/gpm install admin

I don't get the error.

I remember that error from an old Admin/Login plugins combination, so I guess that is the problem? Are all plugins at the latest version available?

[4evermaat]

Interesting.

The plugins (admin, login, email, form) are all freshly downloaded.

with WAMP, how do you do bin/gpm selfupgrade and bin/gpm install admin . CMD prompt? BASH?

I got it to work doing it backwards (downloaded fresh grav + admin), updated from within admin panel, and then adding gravstrap theme within admin panel. No error, likely because everything has been updated already.

[flaviocopes]

Yes, that's likely the issue. Admin or Login were not up to date. bin/gpm commands are run through the command line (https://learn.getgrav.org/cli-console/grav-cli). You could also update through the Admin panel itself, but since you have this problem, it was not reachable.

Another option is to download the package from https://getgrav.org/downloads/plugins, unzip and then upload via FTP in user/plugins/
