Well...I hate upgrading...

Ok, I'm on 6.5. I entered the Member Area and see that in order to upgrade to 6.7, I have to do a full upgrade. Fine. I downloaded the zip file, opened the read me file and got to Step 2.

"Paste this link into your browser: http://www.infopop.com/support/ubbclassic/install.html and print out the INSTALLATION instructions."

Whoops...there are no instructions for V7...unless I'm completely missing it. All I see is V6.

Reading on...

"NOTE: If you are upgrading an existing licensed board, you need to download the "upgrade" release zip from the Member Area. This is a full installation zip, which is only suitable for new installations or upgrades from the UBB.classic(tm) Trial Version."

I am upgrading...but from V5...which I thought I just read I have to download the full version because I can't move from V5 to V7...so the "upgrade" does not work for me.

Step 2...I'm lost. This is going well...

it isn't 7.0, it's 6.7. The install instructions are for 6.x (meaning all of version 6's dot releases).

You can use the upgrade, you are upgrading from a previous dot release. You're running 6.5, not 5.5.

Why don't you just ask me on AIM like you usually do?
