Did you run the upgrade files as instructed? From your first post, I'm guessing you upgraded from 1.1.x, but didn't run any of the upgrade files as instructed.

[sportsfan]

I upgraded from 1.1.6. I couldnt find any complete upgrade instructions, I am new here, so that doesnt help. i went through these support forums and the only thing I saw that had to be done was to upload the new files and overwrite the older duplicate files. Then, i deleted the install1, upgrade1, 2, 3, and 4 files like the upgrade said. Thats is basically the summary of what has been done. I knew it sounded too easy......geez!

Upgrade instructions: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...threadid=13574

[sportsfan]

It sounds as if the thing I did wrong is that I did not run the upgrade1.php script. Is this done in the control panel?

[sportsfan]

I cannot access my control panel now either. How can i fix this?

[sportsfan]

As a note, I have already imported all of my members and posts from my UBB. Can I fix this problem and save all that work? If so, how?



Thank You

[Mike Sullivan]

Well, you shouldn't have been able to do anything on any page because of the session table and userfield table. So you still need to run upgrade1.php as per the instructions in that thread.

[sportsfan]

I cannot access my board, so how can i do this? The files are all on the server again. I made sure they were all uploaded. The new files overwrote all the old files.

I hate making stupid mistakes!!!

go to http://yoururl.com/forumsdirectory/admin/upgrade1.php
then http://yoururl.com/forumsdirectory/admin/upgrade2.php
then http://yoururl.com/forumsdirectory/admin/upgrade3.php
then http://yoururl.com/forumsdirectory/admin/upgrade4.php
then http://yoururl.com/forumsdirectory/admin/upgrade5.php

then you should be all set.

[sportsfan]

ok, that link worked. Here is what it tells me:

Please be sure to upgrade your config.php to vBulletin 2.0 standard before continuing with the upgrade.


What is this about? I uploaded all the files that were in the upgrade zip file????

[Susan]

in the beta package there's a file called config.php.new. Add your config information, rename the script config.php and upload.

[sportsfan]

ok, I got the config done. Now when i try toaccess my forums, I get this error:


Warning: Access denied for user: '[email protected]' (Using password: NO) in ./admin/db_mysql.php on line 31
