SMF 1.0.4 released

[Grudge]

mennou, that looks like you are installing the mod - not uninstalling it? If you get that and you haven't run it maybe your Packages directory isn't writable?

ping, you don't need to run upgrade for this update. Also, pm_ignore_list is a 1.1 feature - you should *NOT* be installing 1.0.4 on a board running 1.1 - 1.1 is newer!! (Charter Members)

Heh. downgrade your forum!

[Jounouchi]

Woot~~~
Finally release. >_>
Wanna try it now.

For someone using Spam-me-not, what happens if you replace the current spam-me-not zip file in your Packages directory with the attached version? I imagine it was because you installed it on 1.0.2 then upgraded to 1.0.3 where there are no uninstall actions defined - I've basically just added an uninstall action for it.

I get a big red "modification parse error" and if you try to "proceed" it will say no such file, even though the uninstall is there where it's looking...

I just u[pgraded, and it upgraded perfectly.

*faceplants* Now I feel just exceedingly dumb! Thanks for pointing that out, Grudge! Too many version numbers floating around my head.

what do u mean i shouldn't have to  install 1.0.4 ?

[Gary]

No. Since you're not a charter member, you should have installed 1.0.4 its the person who posted above you, ping, who shouldn't have installed it.

Just upgraded with the package manager (I have 4 mods installed) went like a charm
thanks

Right,

Let me get this straight - you are running the Spam-Me-Not mod, and that is the reason you haven't installed 1.0.4. As long as you haven't done any "partial" installing - try running the attached mod. It will appear in your admin center as "spam-a-lot uninstall" and should uninstall the spam-a-lot mod. Note it will still say the mod is installed - but will actually be done.

If this doesn't work I'm afraid you'll have to do the standard upgrade path which is:

1) Go to downloads page here - download package_1-04_upgrade.zip
2) Extract it to your computer, FTP all the files to your server*
3) Reinstall all your mods (They will all be uninstalled when you do this)

* Note: If you have modified the default theme do NOT overwrite index.template.php or style.css in the Themes/default directory.

I've read thru this thread but still not sure I might screw things up.

In terms of mods:
used the uninstall-spam-me-not succesfully
uninstalled faster parsecode

G&S Sticky - currently installed
On-line users today - currently installed

I also have hacked various files:
boardindex
boardindex.template
index.template
post
subs-post
style.css
stats.template

sorry for being so thick, but what's the best way to upgrade?

thanks

Dam I hate a manual install of something, I am having Yabb 1.3X flashback.
I know I can manually do it by editing the file but why push out a update that is not ready and has issues with "Faster Parsecode" esp since it was just updated to work with version 1.03 ?

The upgrade is ready, it was released to fix a potential security hole, it can't be helped if the changes made conflict with mods.

Can you not uninstall the conflicting mod and then update?

I have to uninstall most manually, like FP and for the life of me I can not get the Banner Manager 3.4 to uninstall even by hand
Those 2 really piss me off to no end
Not sure why the FP is a issue with my sites, strange but when I flashed it to 1.03 the FP stayed and worked fine even before they updated it.

I will install a test forum and then copy my old forum over it and do some testing, my main site has  Coppermine Photo Gallery & Mambo & MKportal integrated all under the same DB so I get nervous when I have to do a manual "over-write" upgrade vs a "flash" one through the admin center.

I am not knocking SMF its 1 zillion times better to work with than Yabb but many are running the FP due to its add on toys

Well, I upgraed 4 forums using Package Manager and checked for some of the errors I read about in this thread. So far so good, everything seems to work fine on all 4 forums. He crosses his fingers

rhizome,

If you now try the package install does it report any errors? Looking at what you've written it *should* work.

Hi Grudge

I get:

1.    Execute Modification    ./changelog.txt    File not found
2.    Execute Modification    ./changelog-themes.txt    File not found

All others operations indicate success.

Dunno where these change log files have gone, but should it affect the upgrade if they aren't there?

thanks

I get:

1.    Execute Modification    ./changelog.txt    File not found
2.    Execute Modification    ./changelog-themes.txt    File not found

You can ignore those 2. Just hit 'proceed'.

Going to upgrade as soon as I inject/restore SQL

[dustrho]

I had 1.0.3 and I'm having problems doing the upgrade to 1.0.4.  It kept giving me the error message, " The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted."  So, I tried going into the Package Manager and every time I click on the Package Manager link nothing happens.  WTF!?

Cool - everything went fine.

Thanks for the support and quick replies.
