Not sure, but it looks like uploadprogress.so has a problem - ask your webhost to disable this extension in php.ini?

(To repeat the Post in the Blog and keep Bug tracking in one place
The mobile app (together with rc7) has some minor flaws:
- The sorting of the different data entities is somehow unexpected (first max numbet of actions, avg. number of actions and visitors, unique visitors and the total number of actions/impressions somewhere in the middle)
- the graph of campaign-sources is rotated in zoom-view. I have not tested other graphs.
Tested with rc7 (de) and piwik mobile 1.7.0

This looks fantastic, but I'm unable to track goals via javascript and rely on the php tracking api. Any idea when the new ecommerce features will be added to the tracking api?
morrack, ecommerc features are already in the Javascript API, as explained in: [piwik.org]
And you will find the same Ecommerce functions in the PHP Tracking API as shown in the list of functions in [piwik.org]
@Patrick Schoenbach
What RC are you using? please upload the latest RC, then what error message do you see?

> On a clean install of RC7 PrivacyManager is not activated by default,
Thanks, fixed in trunk!
> "Table `usr_web35_2.piwik_session` doesn`t exist."
Somehow the update was not executed, from core/Updates/1.5-b5.php
'CREATE TABLE piwik_session
id CHAR(32) NOT NULL,
modified INTEGER,
lifetime INTEGER,
data TEXT,
PRIMARY KEY ( id )
) DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8' => false,
);
