I have a forum on vb4.1.2. So, to update to the latest version, which files do I actually download? The upgrade instructions suggest to download the latest vBulletin package, which implies all the files....

I have a forum at mysite1.com. It wasn't very successful, so I want to use my license for another project instead on mysite2.com. To save a bit of time, I was thinking about pointing mysite2.com to the...

When you go to my homepage, if you type mysite.com, it goes to www.mysite.com. But if you go to mysite.com/forums/, it stays there, rather than redirecting to www.mysite.com/forums/.

Ok, thanks for that.

I mean my host tried the upgrade themselves and got the same error.

I ran the upgrade.php script but I didn't proceed because I saw the error. I didn't disable plugins and I don't know if...

[Jon12345]

I am not sure if my host did or not. They are urljet so presumably know what they are doing.

[Jon12345]

From memory, it might be 3.8.5. I uploaded all the files and it didn't work. Then my host did the same with the same issue. They get this error:
