After installing a Magento 1 extension or Magento 2 extension you get the following error message, e.g. if you try to login the Magento admin backend: Mage_Core_Exception: Mage registry key <...> already exists The solution is very easy in most cases: If you recently installed a new Magento Extension, please confirm that you followed all installation steps that are mentioned in the README file of the module. In all other cases especially assure that the Magento cache is cleared, e.g. by emptying the var/cache/ directory in a Magento default installation and that the Magento compilation process has been triggered (if enabled). If you need help with this problem, just contact me.
