Problem and solution after Gantry update

[Amicus]

Hello.

I'm using jDownloads 3.2.41. Yesterday I have updated my Gantry framework to version 5.2.13 on Joomla 3.4.8. and couldn't access my jdownloads page.
After that update instead of my downloads I see only empty page. I have tried everything I could remember but no luck. On the end, I installed older version of the gantry-4.1.30-rocketlauncher_j34 and gantry-4.1.30-rocketlauncher_j34 and everything is OK now. So DON'T update gantry framework on Joomla 3.4.8. if you are using  jDownloads 3.2.41.

Hi
Thanks for the hint.  Have you told the Gantry people of the problem?

It might be part of the preparation for Joomla 3.5 where there are some changes made by the Joomla! people, which are sometimes very annoying.
For example http://www.jdownloads.com/forum/index.php?topic=8783.msg35970#msg35970
Also "we must first change all JString() to StringHelper() . The JString is deprecated in Joomla 3.5 to be compatible with PHP 7."
