Sorry, the profile you have chosen cannot be loaded.

Posted by Joseph Lau on March 30, 2013 at 3:04pm

When I install OpenScholar, I put all the OS files into .../apps/drupal/htdocs/profiles/ and run localhost/install.php.

The message, "Sorry, the profile you have chosen cannot be loaded.", appears after I choose the language.

What have I done wrongly?

What language did you choose?

What language did you choose? I don't know if Open Scholar supports other languages (I could be wrong though). Also, aren't the openscholar files that you downloaded a complete install package? I've never had to move files around. I have always just treated the open scholar files as if I downloaded vanilla drupal and was going to install it. The only difference being of course that I chose the OS profile when prompted to choose a profile.

(1) English as default.

(2) Is the path I set wrong?

What else is in your Drupal

What else is in your Drupal Folder besides htdocs? All you need to do once you untar (extract) the files is to put them in an empty folder called drupal or openscholar inside the html-public folder on your webserver. I'm not sure why you are putting the files inside the htdocs and profile folders.

Profile problem solved, but another problems come

Posted by Joseph Lau on March 31, 2013 at 12:36am

I solved the profile problem by creating a new folder, openscholar, and followed the same as standard folder or minimal folder in Drupal.

This is the next problem:

Warning: in DatabaseConnection->__construct() (line 304 of C:\BitNami\wampstack-5.3.23-0\apps\drupal\htdocs\includes\database\database.inc).
Warning: htmlspecialchars(): Invalid multibyte sequence in argument in check_plain() (line 1572 of C:\BitNami\wampstack-5.3.23-0\apps\drupal\htdocs\includes\bootstrap.inc).

And, I cannot log in the server by using "root" and the password I set previously.

How can I solve it?

Single and Multi Application

Posted by Joseph Lau on March 30, 2013 at 6:42pm

I think it should be a difference between single and multi applications. When I installed BitNami WAMP, it already includes 2 applications: Heroku, and phpMyAdmin. Each application includes 2 folders: htdocs, and conf.

What should do I next?

I have the same issue

I had the same issue. the openscholar profile folder is wrong. It's like /profile/openscholar/openscholar/

I moved everything to /profile/openscholar and it almost worked. until I got this error in Configure Site step.

Call to undefined function field_attach_load() in /var/www/includes/entity.inc on line 321, referer: http://acamedium.com/install.php?profile=openscholar&locale=en

I am facing the same problem

Posted by Nicholar on July 23, 2013 at 3:20pm

i was unable to install it successfully. Maybe the key lies in the install.core.inc file?

<?php
function install_load_profile(&$install_state) {
  $profile_file = DRUPAL_ROOT . '/profiles/' . $install_state['parameters']['profile'] . '/' . $install_state['parameters']['profile'] . '.profile';
  if (file_exists($profile_file)) {
    include_once $profile_file;
    $install_state['profile_info'] = install_profile_info($install_state['parameters']['profile'], $install_state['parameters']['locale']);
  }
  else {
    throw new Exception(st('Sorry, the profile you have chosen cannot be loaded.'));
  }
?>
