Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? Yes, its my ticket ;)
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Joomla! version: 2.5
PHP version: 5.2.17
MySQL version: 4.1.20
Host: (webreus.nl)
Admin Tools version: (2.2.a3) -> and local: svn772

Description of my issue:

Hi, I just tested dev release svn772 which includes the fix for deleting PHP changes entry's. Now it works OK.
Because I have some other problem with trombinoscoop which a client is using I didn't have time to do an overall test.
Is there anything else included in this release that I should test?

Perfect! Thank you for your feedback :)

There are no other changes in this release. That was the only change. Hint: clicking on the Release Notes tab in each dev release you can see the change log to the immediately previous dev release or, if a previous dev release was not available, the previous stable release.

Just a matter of reading... ;) Normally I do better. But some F****** extensions are not working right after J2.5. they did in the Alpha versions. You'll always see that live is different once you're out of the 'sandbox' ;)
That's why I was in a hurry...and didn't think about the release notes.

Thanks again for this quick solution.

Oh, tell me about it! My extensions were working in the beta and RCs, then broke as soon as 2.5.0 Stable was out. And I had to re-release everything.

Sometimes it's not a problem with the extension authors, but features creeping in to or changing in Joomla! after a beta freeze. Which, of course, completely beats the purpose of having betas and RCs of upcoming Joomla! releases, or for a developer to test with them as it's CERTAIN that your extensions WILL break as soon as the .0 Stable is released >:( And this places our users between a rock and a hard place. They can't upgrade to the next stable because our extensions broke due to last minute changes in Joomla!. They can not stay in the current release because it's not secure. And who gets the heat? The developers, who are busting their asses trying to prevent this unpleasant situation by testing with all pre-release versions of Joomla! and STILL get the blame.

PS: I hadn't slept for more than 8 hours in total over two days, fixing issues caused by J! 2.5.0 and trying to prevent complaints by users regarding J! 2.5.0 compatibility.

It is solved, had to put modules/mod_trombinoscope to allow direct access dirs so style.css.php can be executed. Just like the template dir. Hope it's not a big security issue, can't find alternative for trombinoscope...

Yup, that makes sense and no, it's not a huge security hole (unless that PHP file is very badly written, of course!)
