ipplan fails with no such file or directory PHPLIB.php

[Deep6]

Binary package hint: ipplan

IPPlan fails with the following error:

PHP 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.3 (Linux)
Unknown error type: [2] require_once(/usr/share/ipplan/menus/lib/PHPLIB.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory Line: 540 File: /usr/share/ipplan/ipplanlib.php

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/usr/share/ipplan/menus/lib/PHPLIB.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /usr/share/ipplan/ipplanlib.php on line 540

It appears as though the entire menus/ folder is absent in the 4.86 release,

I get this same bug.

There is no link to the directory ipplan in /var/www for /usr/share/ipplan
and the module is not activated in apache.

/var/www# ls -laF

[kelargo (kelong-2000)]

this let me move forward and get to the install screen ..

/var/www# ln -s /usr/share/ipplan ipplan

I am not sure if this is the "best" solution...
not sure how apache modules are properly added .. ?

Just one question ... did you have a look into the documentation in /usr/share/doc/ipplan/, especially into /usr/share/doc/ipplan/README.Debian?

You can read there:

The default ipplan alias in /etc/ipplan/apache.conf has been disabled to
prevent the alias from affecting every virtual host. Feel free to re-enable
the alias if necessary.

Deep6: To get the menus/ folder appearing, you need to remove the comment before "Alias /ipplan/menus /usr/share/php/libphp-phplayersmenu" in /etc/ipplan/apache.conf.

You have to ways to come to your situation:

* Installing ipplan out of the box, so you should have read /usr/share/doc/ipplan/README.Debian and even /etc/ipplan/apache.conf. If you have done that carefully, you probably will have a look into /etc/ipplan/apache.conf and sort out, what you wan't todo with it.

* Upgrading ipplan from former version should ask you about the changes to /etc/ipplan/apache.conf and you should have seen that there was added an alias for /ipplan/menus, which is commented out by default.
