I thought that upgrading from 2.4 to 3.3 was easy??

There seems to be some new file in conf. _basic_config.template.php for some reason. I believe the assumption is that you will open up permissions for the server to write that file. Sounds like a solution to a problem no one had, but hey what do I know.

Anyway I'm guessing but MAYBE b2evo sees that file and figures that means you haven't installed the software yet.

Ditch that file and things might work like normal.

Wow this whole 3.* thing is a joke.

Cool: that makes sense (sort of)...

I gather from the docs that the template thing was so existing files (config in this case) would not be overwritten.

I'll give that a go...

Do you get it working?

Sorry, just got back to this to give it a go...

unfortunately no :( still using 2.4.5

And what seems odd to me is that this error is displayed when trying to access the blog:

This is b2evolution version 3.3.1.

You cannot use the application before you finish configuration and installation.

MySQL error:
Table 'mitup2_b2emitupela.T_settings' doesn't exist(Errno=1146)

Please use the installer to finish your configuration/installation now.

That's a quoted string?? What happened to the table prefix???

Unfortunately not. Still can't seem to find the DB???

This is frustrating...

I wonder if this is due to your server's php version?

You *did* re-upload the /conf/ folder I assume? .... might be worth re-doing as T_ should be prefix_ ;)

Sure did... but I'll do it again and try again...

Found it!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Don't ask me how, but the following code was missing from _config.php

// Load modules:
foreach( $modules as $module )
{
	require_once $inc_path.$module.'/_'.$module.'.init.php';
}

Uploaded again and all good!!

Note to self: Check file sizes after uploading ;)

No worries ;)

I know I said "Don't ask me", but I'd like to ask: Is that odd or what??

It's like it was an old version or something, but I uploaded the same files I did previously, except previously there was a small block of text missing!!

8| 8| 8|

But I didn't ask? :O

Some ftp clients only overwrite newer files or summt .... sometimes causes problems like yours

Other times people omit to upload /conf/ so they don't lose their db connection details. Something that's cured in 3.bloat.+

I was guessing that you came under one of the two ;)
