I copied my live gallery site and database over to a test domain and then ran the upgrade scripts.
If I remember correctly my site was at 4.6.6 so ran the upgrade script...
"Upgrade complete! You should continue to upgrade47.php"... ran the next script which created records 144 to 164 into the settings table.
"You should continue to upgrade482.php"
I tried running this file but it kept telling me that it couldn't connect to the database - I even tried replacing the cvariables in the .php script with the real database name, server IP address, etc and still received the error message saying the script couldn't connect to the database.
I got frustrated at that point and the nly way I managed to get it all working was to install PhotoPost 4.8.5 as a fresh install (now can I restore my database files so that all of my photos, comments, etc are returned?)
I copy & pasted the output in my browser when I was doing the upgrade... now that I've gone back to that log things are looking clearer to me and I have worked out that upgrade482.php is probably the script (which I didn't manage to get to work) that created various records including the cokkie records which are now causing so many people problems. A note to myself when upgrading PhotoPost in the future... always copy & paste the output because it'll help me work out what may be broken if I have a problematic upgrade.
