Upgrading a broken SMF forum
Arantor:
Hardly surprising it couldn't be found, /news2/index.php&theme=1 is not a file that's present.
Try /news2/index.php?theme=1
CapadY:
Forum is shown, only the theme isn't taken up. So I am pretty sure it's a settings problem.
I've send you a PM
agcornell:
I'm going through every single folder in the themes folder and changing the permissions settings.
It looks like I'm going to have to do this for everything folder by folder. :/ No changes to the look yet but still a fair way to go.
Folders: 755 Files: 655. Previously they are reading: 644
Will continue.
MrPhil:
Files should never be 655. They should be 644 (unless you want read-only, which is normally 444).
Use the "find" command to change all folders at the same time, and all files at the same time.
I think you should have fixed the 1.1.11 forum first, then upgraded to 2.0.2.
agcornell:
Thanks for that MrPhil. Will change - and thanks for the file tip.
I was hoping that the upgrade would overwrite how the themes were being handled. It looks the same as before the upgrade even though everything is otherwise 'working'.
I noted that in other areas using FileZilla can treat files without extensions as ASCII files. I've been doing binary ftp transfer to avoid that, using a different FTP program. I'm wondering if maybe there was a pre-existing condition that got brought over?
