UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic UBB.classic 6 Support HELP! Upgrade failed!

I just followed the instruction to upgrade from 6.05 to 6.1 - and got this! Everything else looks fine on the backend!

http://www.sbtontheweb.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

Crap - I didn't even notice the new 6.1 beta bug section...sorry...

did you check each setting section like you have before or did you use the upgrade button?

I followed the upgrade instructions exactly - closed the board, uploaded everythign to the appropriate directories in ascii mode, used the Upgrade button, updated member post history, then rebuild forum stat files, opened the board. I have since repeated the whole thing twice, I also tried the ultimatebb.cgi file from the full version. I also tried it uploading in auto mode, no difference whatsoever. every test file works, all the path tests and whatnot still come back fine. The cp.cgi works fine, nothing reports any problems - it's just acting like the ultimatebb.cgi file isn't a valid file/script!

I have also tried all the maint. options.

I looked at the script code and since I'm not a programmer, I can't tell if there is something obvisouly wrong - I comapred the general layout of the 6.1 to 6.05, and tried a few things. I notice in the 6.1, there is a BEGIN statement, but no END - I tried fooling around with things (under another file name, not replacing the ultimatebb.cgi file) - if I changed the BEGIN to eval, instead of the 'page cannot be displayed' I get a 'script produced no output' - so it's not the server - it really is processing the script - it HAS to be something in the code itself!

Brian I'm going to move this to post install trouble shooting.


Did you make absolutely certain to upload ALL of the modules over again, in ASCII?

If so do me a favor and fill out a trouble ticket and I'll take a look at it for you. In the comments mark attn to me please.

I'll do it again, but yes, I'm sure.

I filled out a trouble ticket when I made this first post. It's # P-2001-0728-11-MERCER-EK

I'm on it now.....

I'm still reuploading everything again - just to let you know - I'll let you take it from here.
