Title: Nothing happens upgrading 2.0 to 2.0.1
Post by: dcltdw on September 21, 2011, 06:21:23 PM
The "SMF 2.0" did not change at the bottom of the page, even though it says it was installed correctly.
My Admin center still says I need to upgrade.
When I run the upgrade again, I get "already installed".

Any tips on what I should try?

Thanks so much in advance!

If after refresh also shows the same, see here (http://custom.simplemachines.org/upgrades/index.php?action=upgrade;file=smf_patch_2.0.1.tar.gz;smf_version=2.0) only error in index.php , maybe..also see in Administration Center>Support Information>(more detailed)

Tried logging out and back in again.  No change.

When I go to Admin -> Main -> Package Manager, I see:
QuoteA few security vulnerabilities have been identified in SMF 2.0. You can install this patch (click here to install) to install the security patch for SMF 2.0.

I click on the link and get:
Quote

Package downloaded successfully
The package has been uploaded successfully

SMF 2.0.1 Update[ List Files ][ Install Mod ]

I click on Install Mod and see:

Quote
Install Mod
This package is already installed, and no upgrade was found!

You should uninstall the old version first to avoid problems, or ask the author to create an upgrade from your old version.

Please remember to always make regular backups of your sources and database before installing mods, especially beta versions.

Any help, please?  It looks like part of the system thinks I'm at 2.0, but the package manager thinks I'm at 2.0.1.

your copyright says you are using what version?

if you go to the package manager and click on the advanced link what version does it show? if other then 2.0.1 [given your copyright says 2.0.1] click revert and save the page.

Sometimes packages are locked to early versions of SMF but remain compatible with a newer version. Here you can choose to "emulate" a different SMF version within the package manager.

Emulate Version: SMF 2.0
Revert
Apply


So should I revert to 2.0 and then try the upgrade again?

all it would do is make sure the text is correct and you save the page and try again. if that does not work you can always try the large or small upgrade package depending on mods you have installed, or you can do the edits manually to do your upgrade.

Okay, keen.  Should I uninstall all my mods before upgrading to 2.0.1?

Okay, next dumb question.

I've uploaded the tarball and unpacked it into smf/Packages/smf_2-0-1_upgrade
I cd into that directory and run php upgrade.php
It fails, saying it can't find Settings.php

I'm guessing I need to have untar'ed this into somewhere else.  Do I want to untar it in my smf/ directory, clobbering everything in its path?

you need to make sure all the files you have uploaded override the existing files, then run the upgrade.php script. you do not upload or extract the files into the packages folder.

I'm seeing the exact same thing here.  Tells me to update, when I do, it says it completes successfully, but doesn't change the copyright, and doesn't appear to have taken effect at all.  Just as those above, I get the same screens they are getting.  I have tried to revert to v2.0, but again, nothing happens and I get the same thing when I go to the package manager.  Further, I did try logging out and back in only to see no difference.

TIA for any help
