7.3 Upgrade....

Posted: Thu Aug 19, 2004 4:05 pm

Since 7.4 came out, I haven't upgraded my site from 7.3....I don't think I have upgraded to the latest patches....and I know I haven't upgraded to phpbb 2.1.0

What I'd like to know is what i should download and use to upgrade to 7.4 with the latest patches? Is there an all in one 7.4 package with the latest patch(s) applied already? If so, where is it?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

In the downloads.

Hmmm....didn't see it before. DOH! So just edit all the files I need to edit (for the modules/blocks I have installed) then upload and run the upgrade script from 7.3 to 7.3 and I should be okay, eh?

I've considered blowing my site away, and just uploading the 7.4 patched fresh, as I am having some issues with saving some settings in some modules and admin settings....but maybe 7.4 will solve it..... Confused

Hmn not sure it will help with that if there is some mysql tables that are bad,extra or something upgrading won't normally be the answer for that. You might consider just dropping and recreating the troublesome tables before dumping the whole site. Keep a backup for sure either way before going on!

Well, my current issues are:

1. I am currently having issues saving some settings in Sentinel....(some settings won't save)....

2. Some of my members are reporting they cannot edit their account information for some reason....although I can go in and edit their info myself and it's fine. (this only affects a couple people out of 200+)

3. I cannot add new Admins via the Admin page....I have to go in via phpmyadmin to do so....and then I can edit their information, but I get a blank page when I try and add a new admin and it never adds them....

I don't know why these things are occuring....but they are....nothing was changed or added recently (last 3-4 months) other than sentinel, but I had removed protector when I put in Sentinel....so who knows if I missed a comma or semi-colon somewhere in uninstalling Protector, that could be causing all of this....*sigh*
