Modules section problems / can't fetch module upodates

[trigem]

Hi everybody,

 

I am experiencing a weird situation accessing the modules section in the back-end one of my Prestashop 1.6 installations. It happens that:

• a very long time passes form the moment I click to enter the section till the moment the page loads (I think more than a minute, seriously!);
• the application can't fetch the list of the modules that need to be updated, it's been empty for weeks and still it is;
• some not installed modules have disappeared form the list: I had to manually load the Google Sitemap module, that should have been included in the standard installation.

 

I can't figure out what is happening, maybe some remote call that hangs up, maybe something related to module updates.

 

It is not the only Prestashop installation I have in the same server: the others, of the same exact version, doesn't have these problems.

 

Some ideas would be kindly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

What subversion of 1.6?

Thanks for replying.

 

It's the last one (at the moment): 1.6.0.9

Have you fixed the bug with the autoload / class index? That does affect the modules.

Doesn't sound familiar, I think I haven't fixed it. Any hints about this?

Any other ideas about this issue?

 

@Dh42, I didn't understand what you mean about "autoload / class index", could you please explain it to me? Thank you very much, you've been very kind.
