I have no idea where to even post this but I have lost all my custom fields information and pretty much all my settings for my board. I'm actually glad I had done this on a test server or I would have totally lost my entire community.

I don't even know where to begin or what to say.

What steps did you do when preforming this upgrade?

Exactly as the Upgrading your UBB.threads™ 7.0+ blah blah blah stated to the letter.

The bad part is I can't even restore what I had backed up as the one file is to large to put back in using PHPMyAdmin as some PHP setting is not large enough type deal.

Did you happen to overwrite your includes/config.inc.php file during the upgrade?

No.

here is the error I'm getting in PHPMyAdmin: "No data was received to import. Either no file name was submitted, or the file size exceeded the maximum size permitted by your PHP configuration. See FAQ 1.16."

I need to know what file to change and to what to restore my old database. I think it may be /etc/php.ini

I have changed the php.ini settings and still unable to import the file.

I did a command line in mysql through telnet and got all the files in there, I just can not post on the board. It acts like it is posting but nothing new is showing.

Anyone have any ideas?

looks like I will have to use the source command in the database to pull the entire sql files back in to do it properly. Oh well, Live and Learn, LOL.

"LOL" is a good attitude... I'm not doing my update for another 12 hours or so, so we'll see if I'll be LOL'ing or @$%*#%'ing myself
