Hi Brett,

No, I kept copies of those config files in a separate folder.

I've actually solved it, though I have no idea WHY.

I copied the upgrade files over the existing installation (after making a backup of the directory first!), and made sure the config files contained the correct paths etc... No joy.

Installed the previous release version back over the directory (without deleting content first), and still no joy...

When I renamed the ubbthreads folder to .bak, and renamed the backed up (working) version to 'ubbthreads', it worked.... So, after keeping a copy of the working folder, I deleted the contents of the install that didn't work.

I then installed the current beta into an EMPTY folder, copied my existing config files into it, and hey presto, no php errors!

I have no idea why, but it seems that installing the 'upgrade', over the existing install caused the problems.
