I also get "Error in Package Installation when upgrading from 1.1.12 from 1.1.11, using the update link in the Admin center (I presume that goes to a patch).
At least one error was encountered during a test installation of this package. It is strongly recommended that you do not continue with installation unless you know what you are doing, and have made a backup very recently. This error may be caused by a conflict between the package you're trying to install and another package you have already installed, an error in the package, a package which requires another package that you don't have installed yet, or a package designed for another version of SMF. " However, my error is in "7. Execute Modification ./Sources/Subs-Package.php Test failed
Since I am not as Tech Savvy as most of the folks here, I am afraid to proceed with the install. What should I do?
Get this:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/downloads/smf_patch_1.0.20_1.1.12.tar.gz
Upload it into your Packages directory. Then, go Package Manager and apply it.
Being a good admin, you WILL backup, first, won't you? ;)
I uploaded it to my packages directory

I got the patch as you directed. I then uploaded it to my Packages directory. I went to Package Manager to apply and got the same error message.
you will need to manually apply the patch to that file, do you have any mods on your forum?
What that error means, is that the edit it wants to make can't be fulfilled, because the line of code that it's looking for has been changed.
Most likely by a mod.
If you look through the edits, here:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/upgrades/index.php?action=upgrade;file=smf_patch_1.0.20_1.1.12.tar.gz;smf_version=1.1.11
You'll be able to make the edit that fails, manually.
I think a manual edit is over my head. I'll just leave it like it is.
Thanks anyway.
You might be surprised.
Those edits scared the ****** out of me, first time I did any.
As long as you keep a copy of the original file, in case you screw it up, you'll be fine. :)
Thanks. This seemed to work for me. I was having 4 failed templates, did the manual on the Smiley and News. I went to upgrade, and they were still listing as failed, but I proceeded and all appears to be fine.
Yeah, it WILL still show the errors.
You do the install, THEN do the manual edits, usually.
Still, if all works, then all's good! :)
