When is Isotope 1.3 available?

Is there anything that can be said about the release of isotope 1.3?

I'm planning some projects and it would be nice to know how to schedule them timewise...

The best we can say is "soon". I know that's not very helpful, but you can always grab the latest builds form the SVN here:

https://winans.svn.beanstalkapp.com/isotope/trunk/

The beta 1 doesn't install on a fresh system. This is the error I get:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception Exception with message Query error: Incorrect key file for table 'tl_iso_cart'; try to repair it (SHOW COLUMNS FROM `tl_iso_cart`) thrown in /usr/home/trusure/public_html/trusure.co.za/system/libraries/Database.php on line 642

Once I installed all the database fields, it shows some column modifications as a second run, so I'm not sure what triggered that... It had lots of primary and secondary index changes... After that the database update fails with the above message.

Now I don't know if this is correctly installed or not?

Are you using 2.10RC1?

nope. 2.95. I'm unable to install 2.10 RC1 because the installation fails. Why is it only designed for 2.10?

Hmmm... Your error may simply mean that you need to repair your tl_iso_cart table before installing. Can you try that?

Technically it will run pre-2.10 but installing will definitely bring up some issues.

how do you repair a table, I've never had to do that?

In phpMyAdmin you can select a table and then there is an option to "Repair Table". Otherwise you can run the following query on the table:

REPAIR TABLE tl_iso_cart;

It is rare but it happens - tables can get corrupt- and the repair table function will generally clear that up.
