Hi everyone,
this is the first time I am using the forum, so forgive me if I am not following any proper code of conduct that I should. Anyway, going straight to my problem, I am trying to do a system backup (System/Tools/Backups) and when I enter the link, I already have a number of errors shown on the console of firebug. Here:
TypeError: ({initialize:(function (a, b){ this.reset(); this.rollbackUrl = this.backupUrl = ''; this.rollbackValidator = new Validation($('rollback-form')); this.backupValidator = new Validation($('backup-form')); }), reset:(function () { this.time = 0; this.type = ''; $('use-ftp-checkbox-row').hide(); $('use_ftp').checked = false; $('ftp-credentials-container').hide(); $$('#ftp-credentials-container input').each(function(item) { item.removeClassName('required-entry'); }); $('backup_maintenance_mode').checked = false; $('rollback_maintenance_mode').checked = false; $('exclude_media').checked = false; $('password').value = ''; $('backup_name').value = ''; $$('.validation-advice').invoke('remove'); $$('input').invoke('removeClassName', 'validation-failed'); $$('input').invoke('removeClassName', 'validation-passed'); $$('.backup-messages').invoke('hide'); $$('#ftp-credentials-container input').each(function(item) { item.value = ''; }); }), backup:(function (type) { this.reset(); this.type = type; this.showBackupWarning(); return false; }), rollback:(function (type, time) { this.reset(); this.time = time; this.type = type; this.showRollbackWarning(); return false; }), showBackupWarning:(function () { this.showPopup('backup-warning'); }), showRollbackWarning:(function () { this.showPopup('rollback-warning'); }), requestBackupOptions:(function () { this.hidePopups(); var action = this.type != 'snapshot' ?

And then, no buttons work. I am circumventing the problem by simply doing a tar of my magento directory and mysqldump, but I am very worried about why this is happening. Can someone help?
Thanks
Fred
Solved! Go to Solution.
So! Mistery discovered! I had under System/Advanced/Developer/Javascript Settings
Merge Javascript file = YES
I thought it would improve site performance with that. IT DOESN'T and it creates a bad and big javascript that doesn't work. I will open a ticket for the developers, but for me this issue is closed.
Sorry for bothering everyone and I hope it helps others.
Thanks
Fred
Hi everyone,
I am still having problems and now I see that the problem maybe related to a prototype.js. See here:
I don´t want to go around changing code from magento. Is this the only solution? What is going on? Thanks for any help.
Hi,
my problem is not going away, quite the opposite. Now I am finding more and more admin functions that are not working. Examples:
1. backups - this was the first one.
2. CMS;editing static blocks
3. Promotions/Rules for the shopping cart -adding or editing any rule
the list goes on, but important is that it is always @ prototype.js
It fails always on the call to a <function>.prototype, saying it is not a function. This one here was AdminBackup but there are others.
I now updated my version of prototype.js on ./js/prototype/ to the latest 1.7.3 with no luck. It seems it fails on.
var $continue = new Error('"throw $continue" is deprecated, use "return" instead');
I am not very good on Javascript and I am trying with firebug to identify what the problem could be but if anyone can give me help I would appreciate. If someone could at least point me to where or what to look at.
Many thanks
HI... I really need help on this. I am testing another instance of magento where I don't have the problem, and there, the javascript is not combined into one big file. Could this be the problem? And how can I stop magento from combining? thanks
