Hi,

we are using reviewboard 1.4 for years and out of the way it started throwing extension error. any idea what it could be.. there is no changes in the system. Running on CentOS 6 with python 2.6

simply opening reviewboard url - gives this error message

EnablingExtensionError at /reviewboard/dashboard/Error initializing extension: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'extension_manager'Request Method:
1.4.10Exception Type:
EnablingExtensionErrorException Value:
Error initializing extension: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'extension_manager'Exception Location:
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Djblets-0.7.25-py2.6.egg/djblets/extensions/base.py in _init_extension, line 632Python Executable:
/usr/bin/pythonPython Version:
2.6.6

Thanks,
Lalit Bansal

There's definitely some kind of change that happened. You may find a better traceback in the log file. Probably some dependency got upgraded somehow, or a previously installed but non-active extension got enabled.

That said, "1.4" is not a version of Review Board. If you mean 1.5.x, those versions are more than a decade old and long past end-of-life. We can't do any support for it, even under a paid contract.

Thanks David for sharing this. I found that very old version (EOL'd) is running and working on the upgrade plan. Meanwhile I was trying to bring this back. you are right its 1.7 version (not 1.4). trying to debug more in the logs. 

Thanks,

It sounds to me like you have an extension (home-grown or third-party) that is overriding __init__ but isn't taking the required arguments (extension_manager). You'll definitely want to look at the reviewboard.log and see what extension this is, and determine what was upgraded or what internal code change was made.
