Hello there.
Ii have forum 1.1.12 version, and want to upgrade it to 2.0RC5.
Ive downloaded and uploaded RC5 large upgrade pack, and start upgrade.php file.
I followed the steps and everything with upgrade went fine, with no errors. After last step was done, when i click on link to forum, i just have white page. :'( :'( :'(
I dont understand what im doing wrong? I also checked all my forum settings and paths with repair_settings and it is fine, but i still cant browse my forum.
Any suggesion pls?
p.s - i have backup of all files and database, so i can repeat upgrade process again, but i dont know if that will result different?
p.p.s - I dont have to uninstall mods before upgrade, right?
Thanks for your answers.
The advice is to uninstall mods, typically though you can just upload the upgrade files and then re-install your mods after that. Of course you are moving from 1.1x to 2.0x and you will find quite a few will not work or need newer versions.
I would take a look at your server error logs to see what is going on there.

Thanks for you answer.
I have just about 30 mods installed at 1.1.12 and i dont need them to work on 2.0 as well. I just want to upgrade forum without problems. I cant uninstall mods because there is a number of errors for every mod, and error log is full as well, but forum works fine.
I just tried to upgrade again, ive restored 1.1.12 files and backup and upload large upgrade again, run upgrade.php with no errors, and i still cant access my forum.
I will now look trough server logs to see if there is something that can help, and i will post it here.
in what way can you not access your forum?
Hello there Illori.
I just get white page with no errors or nothing. Just clear white page. I cant access to ssi_examples.php too if that matters.
sounds strange, have you by chance asked your host if they can look into the issue? it may be a configuration issue.
Here is errors from server error log that is related to forum.
[Tue Apr 05 00:03:53 2011] [error] [client 178.222.125.109] PHP Warning: require_once(/......./Sources/Subs-Db-mysql.php) [<a href='function.require-once'>function.require-once</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /....../Sources/Load.php on line 2519
The IS a Load.php file, uploaded from original upgrade pack.
Also this error:

I will now try to upgrade forum on other server that i have and where i previoulsy upgraded one other forum.
Any suggestion on how can i fix this error and make my forum work pls?
the error message about Load.php may be an issue with file permissions or ownership, it is hard to tell exactly by that error message. the other message about SimpleSEF.php you will need to contact the mod author or the support thread for that mod as it is not part of a default smf install.
Thanks for your help huys, ive sorted this out.
I just clearder htaccess file whick has some codes that simple sef and pretty urls have added, and now it works fine :)
Thanks once again.
