2.8 TO 2.9 DOC's

[xrayhead]

Ok

Where do I find the infomation to upgrade from 2.8 to 2.9.

I have looked in the download centre and all over the board but it only details upgrading to BV3.......

EVEN in the online manuel it only go's on about VB3 upgrade (however it dose say if you are on 2.8 you will need to go to 2.9 first, but no link to info on this).

A link to the files needed and upgrade docs would be good!!!

Xray

PS, I have been looking for this for 2 days now!!

I have been to this page before and read ALL the instructions.
Here is the problem I have. In the CUT bellow it says I have to upload the upgrade php file's for version 2.2.8.
Only problem is in the ZIP file at the bottom of the page you only have the following files!!

upgrade1.php upgrade10.php upgrade11.php upgrade12.php
upgrade13.php upgrade2.php upgrade3.php upgrade4.php
upgrade5.php upgrade6.php upgrade7.php upgrade8.php
upgrade9.php

~~~~~~~~~~~CUT~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.Upload all the files except install.php
2.Load up the following web pages in your web browser.
3.When you are done, be sure to delete all the upgrade x.php scripts.

From 2.2.8

It tells you how to get to 2.3.5 if you just want to upgrade to 2.2.9 to upgrade to vB3 run

However it would be advisable for you to first upgrade to 2.3.5 then make a backup and ensure the forums are in good standing, then upgrade to vB3.

OK

I understand now about the upgrade, but where do I get the following PHP files from???

upgrade22.php
upgrade23.php
upgrade24.php
upgrade25.php
upgrade26.php
upgrade27.php
upgrade28.php

They are not in the zip file on the upgrade page and they are not in the VB3 software I downloaded!!! I can not find anywhere a reference to where these files are.
Now do you see the problem I have?
