[1.8.x] _basic_config.php

My b2evolution Version: 1.8.x

My blog site is fine for the public

However when I try to log in the back office. I cannot.

What I get is

----------------------------------------------------
Connection Interrupted

The document contains no data.

The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again.
------------------------------------------------

Rather then try to figure out what is wrong, I have decided to upgrade from 1.8.6 to the current version and hope that fixes it.

To upgrade I require a file _basic_config.php

Acording to the documentation for upgrading it is in
/blogs/_basic_config.php

However with me it is in
/blogs/conf/_basic_config.php

I just want to be sure and it maybe a bug in the installation documentation.

/blogs/conf/_basic_config.php is correct

The other problem is it saids to delete all the directories except blogs/media

and not to worry as my skins are a different name to theres. This is true except my skin is in a different directory

\blogs\skins

So if I do what they say it will not be there. So I think I need before installing to copy into the new /skins directory my old skin.

Before you do.... realise that 1.##version skins won't work in the latest 2.## versions of B2, without comprehensive and heavy editing.
