SMF Support > Install and Upgrade Help
Major SNAFU <yabbse 1.5.4 upgrade>
theoscarspot.com:
I have installed the new SMF. What i have done was:
1- create a clone of my current YaBB SE 1.5.4 database and used that for the upgrade.
2- Installed SMF per the FAQ.
3- Ran the upgrage.php.
4- Deleted upgrade.php
Now, I am having major issues. I have error messages on the base board and a LOT of error messages if I click on ANYTHING. If anyone can tell me where to even start I would be very greatfull. The link to the forum is below.
http://www.theoscarspot.com/forum
For example. On top of the SMF logo <the top of the board> I have these errors:
Notice: Undefined index: display_recent_bar in /home/theoscar/public_html/forum/Sources/BoardIndex.php on line 333
Notice: Undefined index: display_recent_bar in /home/theoscar/public_html/forum/Sources/BoardIndex.php on line 336
Notice: Undefined index: show_member_bar in /home/theoscar/public_html/forum/Sources/BoardIndex.php on line 342
This is the error I see where I assume it should read "The Oscar Spot", which is the name of the board that I entered in the settings.php
Notice: Undefined index: linktree_link in /home/theoscar/public_html/forum/Themes/default/index.template.php on line 374The Oscar Spot
However... these errrors DO NOT appear when I click on the admin screen. It appears to display correctly, but the use of it is still full of errors. I guess I just need a good point at which to start... or should I scrap this whole install?
Grudge:
It seems as if some entries are missing from the database. Can you check the smf_themes table in phpMyAdmin and check whether it has anything in and/or whether it has show_member_bar in it somewhere

Please don't install and copy over then upgrade. Copy then upgrade the copy..... no installation necessary, it'll only cause problems.

Ok, I completely dumped this DB. and started over. I followed the setup instructions and get the exact same result.
The themes table you speak of is there, with 14 records.
0 1 name SMF Default Theme
0 1 theme_url http://www.theoscarspot.com/forum/Themes/default
0 1 images_url http://www.theoscarspot.com/forum/Themes/default/i...
0 1 theme_dir /home/theoscar/public_html/forum/Themes/default
0 1 allow_no_censored 0
0 1 additional_options_collapsable 1
0 2 name Classic YaBB SE Theme
0 2 theme_url http://www.theoscarspot.com/forum/Themes/classic
0 2 images_url http://www.theoscarspot.com/forum/Themes/classic/i...
0 2 theme_dir /home/theoscar/public_html/forum/Themes/classic

?? :-\ ?? I have no idea how to get this working. After I wiped out the DB I tried to do a fresh install (not the upgrade) and that worked wonderfully. Then I wiped that one (becuase it does me no good to have a new board that does not use my current DB), and then I tried the upgrade again. I really dont know what is going on or how to go about fixing it??

Unknown,
I am not quite following you here. All I did was clone my DB so I would not be messing with my current DB for YSE. I originally downloaded the upgrade package, but it did not contain the settings.php files, so I had to download the full installation and get them from there. Maybe I am not quite following correctly. I have just completely wiped this install out again, but don't want to start over until I figure out what I did wrong. Any help you could offer would be appreciated.
