I know no one should use magento 1 anymore, but I've got a client who didn't migrate and now his backoffice is not working anymore.
The problem is identified (and can be resolved) : in a third party module (French Chronopost), there is a call made to check the last release (and it's done on EVERY admin page !) on
http://connect20.magentocommerce.com/community/Chronopost/releases.xml
And since last friday at 14h30 UTC+2 time it gives a 404.
The following of the module is garbage as it assume that there will be something in the simplexml_load_file
without testing and so throw an erro when trying to use the $xml
it was suppose to return (and now returning false...)
I can't find any official announcement of the plug being pulled of for the site. Anyone know if there is one ?
Not announcement stating that Magento 1 won't be support anymore after june (we've repeated it several time to the customers), but one specific to the end of the connect20 site.
Thanks if you have more information !
