Restoring problem

[Dave Rosteck]

Thanks for the reply. Anyone else please?

[Dave Rosteck]

I want to restore my old 3.8 forum on a new server and upgrade it to 4.0. The database restore goes fine but I'm not sure about the files on FTP.. I'm guessing I upload the old 3.8 files (with my customized...

Problem solved. It was indeed Apache which was the causing the problem so we downgraded it. This can be closed.

[Dave Rosteck]

So I realized this is a server issue of mine as images on aren't displaying outside of my forums as well. What I should I be looking for here?

[Dave Rosteck]

Nope, this is a fresh install so that's why this baffles me. I actually did the opposite of what you said uploading wise, did it again the right way and still not working.. Could this be something server...

[Dave Rosteck]

Thus barely able to even navigate through my CP. I'm guessing something needs to be CHMOD but don't know what to look for plus the image paths appear to be correct. Help please?

[Dave Rosteck]

I know this is probably better suited for vbulletin.org but I can't any replies over there.

I'm looking to call the header and footer templates in my non-VB site so when I change styles,...

[Dave Rosteck]

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the info and I now understand how that works. However, I found that I didn't really need this in the first place. Since I was having problems with the <hr> code...

[Dave Rosteck]

I'm sorry, I'm having trouble understanding this. I'm assuming this conditional would be placed over $postbit in the pm_showpm template? If so or not, could you please tell me exactly what I have to do...

[Dave Rosteck]

Could you show me an example of how to do this? I tried creating a custom postbit2 template and the few different ways I tried calling it, either the entire table wouldn't show at all or the table would...

[Dave Rosteck]

Is there anyway to use a alternate postbit for PMs and reduce the width of it? Reason I ask is because in a new style I created the PM postbit is the only area of the forums that stretches the layout....

[Dave Rosteck]

That did the trick! Thanks Colin.

[Dave Rosteck]

I had a recent server move and ever since then I can't use my other non-default styles. The thing is, the quick drop down brings me to one page of one of my non-default styles but after I click another...

[Dave Rosteck]

YES! Thank you so much Steve, you've been a tremendous help. Now I just hope I can do this process one more time and not screw up.

4.1.22-standard

I did the backup via SSH flawlessly. However, I think I had problems with the restoring part via SSH. I believe that caused a database error however when I did the restore...

[Dave Rosteck]

Both servers are running the same MySQL versions. However, I noticed the old server has PHP version 4.4.4 while the new one has 4.4.7 if that even matters. I've also been getting auto e-mails to upgrade...

[Dave Rosteck]

I received yet another error:...

[Dave Rosteck]

I'm guessing I would open the dump.sql file or would this be done elsewhere such as MyPHPadmin?

[Dave Rosteck]

Yes, I know for a fact the user exists because I'm the admin and I even viewed my profile. Strange thing is, one of my members actually signed in and posted while I can't... I have a feeling something...

[Dave Rosteck]

This is strange, I never recieved the e-mail... :\
