Upgrading 1.1.4 to 1.1.5 problem

[Jumbobeef]

I tried to apply this to one of my 1.1.4 forums, which is (almost) default.  No mods, apart from users online today.  It failed and I got this:

Lots of errors there........

this is weird, I did mine with over 50 mods and it installed successfully first time *scratches head*

[matasanos]

i have the same error...and change 1.1.3 to 1.1.2 doesnt help

[Zetan]

Bah!

An Error Has Occurred!

Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.

Tried logging out and back in again, same error.

SMF 1.1.4 / TP 1.0.5 , Quite a few mods installed and a few custom code edits. First time I've had any problem upgrading.

[Bancherd]

Except for the "brd-bug fix" which I had to do manually, everything went smoothly for me. 

[Jumpmasterrt]

I just upgraded and except for my package manager not working (again, but i think that's my host issue) this is the only other issue I found.....

the highlighted areas USED to say [ Uninstall ] now, nothing.

The red circle? I have no clue. I uploaded the files and that's what happened... it auto installed. It's a previous issue I've addressed in the appropriate forum

[Zetan]

Each of the packages you have installed have a file called: package-info.xml

If you open that file and find the line:

Code Select Expand

<install for="version numbers here">

add ,1.1.5

and this line:

Code Select Expand


<uninstall for="version numbers here">

Again, add the new version number to be able to uninstall. You need to do this with every package.



Still not managed to update my site, upgrade, update, webinstall do not work and return:

The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted.

[Zetan]

Oky.. Thats our site upgraded. Got there eventually

[JimM]

Upgraded flawlessly after the changes made by Compuart.  Thanks

hi, my co admin upgraded to 1.1.5 today, and now we've got lots of errors and plenty of issues. She didn't uninstall any mods, and now we can't get access to parts of the forum the mods provided. The address still takes you there, so it's still there. But no one can register and i dont' have the option to uninstall some of the mods. The question i have is.

Is it safe to uninstall the upgrade?

Did you try this?

[Jumpmasterrt]

No not yet, was about to and then post back with the results.

[foolinthemoon]

Did you try this?

Okay, i did try that, and it worked, however, when i goto uninstall it, it gives me some errors like Test Failed, which i realize might be because of a) the upgrade b) the MANY other mods that have overwritten these files before adding new code or c) something i did which could also be a byproduct of b d) missing files (which shouldnt' be the case!)

I don't know how to successfully uninstall everything i have and reinstall it. Do i have to wait till these mods are upgraded (especially since i went in and manually added 1.1.5 to the package-info.xml) and now my downloads mod shows up twice in the menu!

[Jumpmasterrt]

Where do I find the XML file other than inside the .zip file? If that's the only place do I have to unzip, change, rezip and reupload to the server? If so should I FTP it or use Package manager?

**Edit** Well I figued out why some of the packages don't give an uninstall option and others do. The one's that do have the uninstall option do NOT have the SMF version number in the .xml file and the ones that don't give the option do have it.

So I suppose the above question still remains.... how best to edit the .xml file.

I know I'm a noob, but... I have a file manager package installed, so i used that to download the file to my desktop, extracted the files, changed the according files with notepad , zipped it back up(made sure they kept the right name)  and re uploaded using the file mananger.

If you have that package, it's worth a shot. and if you have it installed but can't get to it in your admin panel, try adding this behind your address.   /index.php?action=filemanager   It worked for me.

[Jumpmasterrt]

Yeah, I just FTP'd them and it worked fine. In all cases I added the number instead of changing them. It's all straight now.

Hi all any help appreciated, I am trying to upgrade our forum from 1.1.4 to 1.1.5 but get the error "The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF"
I have tinyportal; and some mods installed maybe this is the problem , I hope i don't have to uninstall everything to get the patch working as it as  is a large forum with many members for a gaming community, disruption would cause so many problems.
Any help appreciated greatly.

[Jumpmasterrt]

Are you trying to do it directly from Package Manager? If so, download it to your computer and then upload with Package Manager and install it that way. It did the same to me.

Hi I tried to upgrade our forum everything looks ok, I only got this message:

31.      Execute Modification      ./SSI.php      Test failed

I'm afraid to click at "install now"
