A little help Upgrading from 1.1.21 to 2.0.10

Topman · May 28, 2015, 03:55:49 AM

Phase 1 completed.
Forum is working using 1.1.19 old URL and copied database in new location.

I did get this error message when using Repair_settings:
Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in /homepages/21/d424618090/htdocs/brand-newhomes.co.uk/forum/smf/repair_settings.php on line 623

OK
Now I've transfered the 2.0.10 upgrade files to the webspace and change the upgrade.php fril with the hack suggested.
In forum/smf/upgrade.php I get the same "Critical error" message

Critical Error!
The upgrade script cannot find script.js or it is out of date. Make sure your theme paths are correct. You can download a setting checker tool from the Simple Machines Website

Trying the upgrade now:
Admin + Password
Upgrade: "database changes"

After 28 seconds
!!Error!
Unknown Error!

So I am completely back to square one with this!
I'm REALLY fed up now!

Please leave it as it is and PM me the login details to your cPanel (or other control panel you have) so that I can debug it for you. Can only do it in some hours, though.

Topman · May 29, 2015, 02:24:02 AM

Thanks for the offer. But debug what?
The "Critical error" is the script.js file which is there in Default theme! (see attached!)

Or are you saying all my copies of the database have a bug or something preventing the upgrade to 2.0.10?

I cannot (dont want to) give you access to myphp admin with 1and1 as it also gives access to all my other mysql databases.
I may be able (4mb zip file) to e mail the database to you if you PM your e mail address!

Yes

The lack of a default theme entry in the database makes it go wild. And maybe my fix isn't complete enough (I used a slight variation 2 weeks ago to fix *THAT* exact problem, but I didn't save it

)
That's what I would like to debug...

I respect that

Topman · May 30, 2015, 04:16:31 AM

It seems strange (at least to me) that my whole forum works perfectly well in 1.1.21 with the same database.
I use a default theme with the colours changed and a few tweeks of index.php

By the time this gets resolved I will need to upgrade to 2.1!

You use **A** default theme, but apparently not THE default theme... and that is what is causing your problems. I could probably fix it for you in under 30 mins...if you would give me access to your candle and phpmyadmin... I understand why you are hesitant to do so, but there is only so much we can try to do by explanation.....

candle? i think you mean cpanel instead...

Ehehehe

OK I'll give it a try using an "original" 1.1.19 default theme file and try the upgrade.
(Nope didnt work either!)

I will also look to see if it is possible to set up a new myphpadmin account and put a copy of my database in it.

How about this, if your kind offer still stands.
I give you a temporary password and ftp access to a URL witht he forum files in it, which will include the database .sql file.
You can then create a mySQL account add the database and use your own phpadmin to edit it, putting the corrected database back in the webspace.

Topman · June 05, 2015, 06:10:08 AM

Anyone else!

I uninstalled Pretty URLS in my working forum.
I have uplaoded a working set iof 1.1.21 files to a new URL
I have copied a working database and uploaded it to a new mySQL account.

Everything works PERFECTLY in 1.1.21.
I then transfered the 2.0.10 upgrade files and try the upgrade and get the same Critical Error.

Critical Error!
The upgrade script cannot find script.js or it is out of date. Make sure your theme paths are correct. You can download a setting checker tool from the Simple Machines Website

A MONTH and I am no further on!

margarett · June 05, 2015, 06:20:08 AM

Send me that access to your database. I don't need any files.

Topman · June 05, 2015, 07:19:31 AM

Is it possible to just give you the
Database name
Database host
Database Username
Database Password

Because with 1and1 all I do for phpadmin is click a link and it opens.
And I cant give anyone my 1and1 control panel password.
I could e mail you a copy and you could uplaod it to your phpadmin perhaps?

Please let me know is there is a way to do this.

margarett · June 05, 2015, 07:26:50 AM

Yes, that is what I was suggesting

If you provide me your database dump alone I can do it in my computer.

Topman · June 05, 2015, 07:43:03 AM

How can we do this?
I cant see how to do attachments in a PM.
PM me your E mail address?

margarett · June 05, 2015, 07:44:58 AM

I don't believe you can send a database dump via email (unless it's quite small...)
Zip it using a strong password, then upload it to any file sharing service out there. Then PM me the link and the password

Topman · June 05, 2015, 07:53:44 AM

It is about 5MB in size. One reasonable photo!

I cant download it as a Zip and dont know how to convert Zip it

margarett · June 05, 2015, 07:55:44 AM

That's really small. Yeah, email it

I'm PM'ing you my email address.
