Step by Step Instructions to upgrade from v1.4 to v1.5

[jasonsn]

Hey Everyone!  Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to upgrade from v1.4 to v1.5?  I am using LeapFTP to upload files.

[Killer Possum]

All you do is upload all the files in there respective folders and then type the url (http://www.mysite.com/YaBBSE/) that your board isloacated at and trail it will upgrade.php. Then follow the instructions. Once done delete the updrade.php and upgrade13to14.php file and your good to go

Ok, step by step.

1)Backup, both download a copy of the yabbse directory and use phpMyAdmin or phpMyBackup to backup your database.

2)Get a cup of coffee and calm your nerves, this is easy.

3)Upload all of the new files in the 1.5 package.

4)In your browser goto your forum's url but replace index.php with upgrade.php.

5)Run the upgrader.

6)If successful, continue, if not copy down the errors and post them here.

7)Browse your forum and make sure things work

8)Delete the .sql file and upgrade.php from your yabbse directory

One word of warning, version 1.5 is buggy.  So either wait for 1.5.1 or use the bugfix mod that [Unknown] wrote.

2)Get a cup of coffee and calm your nerves, this is easy.

Can someone upgrade them for me?

[jasonsn]

If you can just pm me for the details of information you need.  My forums address is http://jasonsn.ath.cx/yabbse/index.php.

Here is the error I got when I upgraded.  Error: MySQL said:

Can't DROP 'membername'. Check that column/key exists

done.

Yesterday my admin account worked but then it stopped working.  It is taking forever for me to receive my password.  Can anyone help me out here?

Just the other day I was logged in automatically every time I visited them.  So I forgot what my password was.  http://jasonsn.ath.cx/yabbse/index.php

My password for my server is **** and **** and username and host is jasonsn.ath.cx.  That is for you people to fix it and upgrade it for me.  Thanks again.

You need to run the upgrade.php again, but first make Settings.php writable.

Can you do it for me?
