Hi all,
I have exact the same problem with lifestyl2 template as described earlier in this forum:
www.joomlabamboo.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&view=topic&catid=674&id=115375&Itemid=215
Unfortunately this entry became a ticked and I can't see if the problem was solved and how.
A second problem: Installing Lifestyle2 template stopped working at "Install Sample Data".
After 3h of waiting I cancelled the process.
Would be great if you can help me out.

PS: I did a kind of an experiment with Lifestyle2. Maybe you are interested what I did. Here is the entire story:
1. Installed LAMB on Raspberry Pi Model B:
- Linux raspberrypi 4.1.15,
- Apache 5.4.45-0+deb7u2,
- PHP5, Version 5.4.45-0+deb7u2
- MySql (Server Version: 5.5.46-0+deb7u1, MySQL-Client-Version: 5.5.46)
- phpMyAdmin 3.4.11.1deb2+deb7u2,
- Proftpd 1.3.4a
Installation was quit straight forward, many guides and tutorials to find in Internet.
Now it comes to Joomla 3.x and Lifestyle2 template:
2. JB_Lifestyle2_Quickstart_J336_v1.0.1 Installation
- Unzipped JB_Lifestyle2_Quickstart_J336_v1.0.1 and uploaded to /var/www on Pi via FTP to folder lets call it life2_quick
- Start installation by http://ip-of-pi/life2_quick
- Installation went well until “Install Sample Data”. After 3h and no progress I cancelled the process, guessing there is something wrong:-(
- Tried it again, same effect.
3. JB_Lifestyle2_J2.5_J3+_v1.0.2 Installation
Unzipped Joomla Version 3.4.8 and uploaded to /var/www on Pi in folder lets call it life2_blank
- Start Joomla 3.4.8 installation by http://ip-of-pi/life2_blank
- Run http://ip-of-pi/life2_blank/administrator.
- Uploaded and installed JB_Lifestyle2_J2.5_J3 from Joomla backend
- Installed all extension needed/recommended for JB_Lifestyle 2, as T3 framwork ,jb_zenkit, etc.
One problem: Installation of T3 framework failed, because upload_max_filesize was too small. Fixed that by modifying /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and set upload_max_filesize = 8M. Was before 2M. Now T3-framework installation went through
Called site in browser, and it was fine. Looked very simple, but worked.
4. Checking JB_Lifestyle2_Quickstart_J336_v1.0.1 Installation again
Because of the fixed upload_max_filesize problem earlier I run the Lifestyle2_Quickstart installation again. But same effect. Stopped at the same point at “Install Sample Data”.
5. Comparing DB-Tables of “life2_quick” and “life2_blank” installation
Via phpMyAdmin I compared all tables of both installations.
Found life2_quick has table life2_quick_weblinks which didn't exist in life2_blank, but all the k2_xxx tables were missing here. Also I compared all record for all tables and there was quite a difference here.
I imported all missing tables and records into life2_quick database via phpMyAdmin. Doing this by exporting them from life2_blank database and importing into life2_quick database. Also I imported file sample_data.sql from life2_quick/installation/sql/mysql folder.
Now I modified the configuration.php file from life2_blank to fit life2_quick and copied to ife2_quick folder.
At the end I deleted folder installation in ife2_quick
Called the site in browser and........ IT works!!!
In admin mode I updated Joomla to 3.4.8.
So far so good. But just one small issue. The frontpage looks a bit different from the demo provided on Joomlabamboo site. It starts with the slideshow (showing pictures “A Close Focus”, “A Present mind”, “Hand Down Productive”), and missed the srolling areas (“Narwhal stumptown”, “Food truck tattooed“, “Typewriter sustainab”, “DIY vegan paleo“, “Schlitz raw denim”, “Butcher American App”).
After all this work it would be great to get this small issue fixed.
I'm so happy to get Joomla and Lifestyle2 working on a Pi. Sure, the speed is the fastest, but acceptable for me and even better as my 14 years old Window XP I worked with before.
