Upgraded to 2.5 - now all styles and templates are gone!

ChrisFrez · March 7th, 2006, 12:37 PM

Just did the upgrade a few days ago, and our VB3 integration is completely gone. All it show is white page with black text, etc. The listing images are intact, but there are not other images or table borders, etc. The funny thing is that there is a basic table at the top of the page that says "PhotoPost Classifieds 1.0".

What did we miss?

Okay well if you upgraded from an earlier version did you go to admin => edit integration and fill out the new config file variables for the new integration settings in vb3? Looks to me like you overwrote config files header files the whole nine yards.

ChrisFrez · March 7th, 2006, 04:04 PM

If I got into admin->edit integration the default stuff is in there. However, if I look at my config-int.php file in my home directory of my classifieds, the correct settings are in it. If I try and update the default settings in the admin->edit integration it never takes. File attributes is 777 on the config-int.php.

The classifieds connects up to my database no prob, it's the style integration that seems to have been lost in the upgrade.

Chuck S · March 7th, 2006, 04:50 PM

There is no config-int.php file in our Classifieds distribution it is config-intr.php and you must set the proper paths and turn on the integration. The upgrade docs have a note about this.

ChrisFrez · March 7th, 2006, 06:00 PM

I guess i'm a little confused then. In the admin -> edit integration it says config-int.php on the screen, not config-intr.php. Here is a screen capture:

I also read through the upgrade docs included with this version, and I don't see anything referencing config-intr.php in those as well. Here is the upgrade doc that came with 2.5:

Quote:

IMPORTANT - DO NOT SKIP

. Backup your database before doing this upgrade.
. Ensure you upload all the directories (except uploads, which is just a directory to
seperate upgrade scripts, but which files need to be uploaded to the main PhotoPost directory.

UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS

0) Download and unzip the latest build from the Members Area.

1) Check for new config-inc.php variables, some recent additions are:

$cookie_domain has been added for website cookies. I highly recommend setting this to ".youdomain.com" where yourdomain is the name of your domain. This will enable cookies to be read across your website regardless of the URL (i.e. galley.website.com and forums.website.com). If you are using a forum integration you must have this set in both your forums and photopost.
$vblicense is for vB3 users and is required to encrypt your passwords. Without it you will not be able to login to VB3.

2) Upload all files - except config-inc.php, unless you modified it from the ZIP file - to
your server. You do not need install.php for an upgrade.

3) Depending on which upgrades you need, you should upload all these files to the MAIN PHOTOPOST CLASSIFIEDS DIRECTORY (or, for advanced user,
upload only those scripts you need to execute).

4) Run upgrade.php and depending on your version, run any necessary upgrades.

5) When done with upgrades, remove the upgrade*.* files which you uploaded from this directory.

6) You are done!

Please read the CHANGELOG.TXT FILE so you know what to expect from version upgrades.

Maybe i'm missing something here?

Just place the proper settings in there and yout good to go.

The filename changed in 2.41 to prevent conflicts when running the photo blocks from classifieds and our other products on the vbulletin forum

ChrisFrez · March 7th, 2006, 06:30 PM

I copied the file over and all is good now

Thanks.

I've unzipped the download onto my local drive and getting ready to do the upgrade from 2.0 -- but I only see upgrade.php and not any files for the jumps between 2.0 and 2.5.

Roll me a bone here -- where do I find them?

Chuck S · June 17th, 2006, 07:45 PM

Upgrade instructions are located in the documentation folder of the download and should assist you.

Basically upload all files except the config-inc.php file and run upgrade.php and select every upgrade from 2.0-2.5

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 04:00 PM

I did read the Upgrade.txt -- and where I'm confused is in it it says:

Quote:

Ensure you upload all the directories (except uploads, which is just a directory to seperate upgrade scripts, but which files need to be uploaded to the main PhotoPost directory.)

First off -- this is in the Classified 2.5 files -- not Photopost albums. Secondly -- there are no files in the uploads directory except an empty 1 folder and an index.htm file. So where are these upgrade scripts that I'm suppose to upload?

Quote:

Depending on which upgrades you need, you should upload all these files to the MAIN PHOTOPOST CLASSIFIEDS DIRECTORY (or, for advanced user, upload only those scripts you need to execute).

What are the names of these scripts and where am I suppose to find them. I have a upgrade.php in the main directory -- but nothing else named upgrade*.*. I've looked through every freaking directory -- and don't see any other scripts Up*.*. I do see ZipData1.sql-zipData4.sql -- should I assume that these are the files names of the mysterous Upgrade scripts?

Quote:

When done with upgrades, remove the upgrade*.* files which you uploaded from this directory

Since there is only one file in the entire 2.5 zipped files with the filename of Upgrade*.* -- I want to verify I understand the process before I do the upgrade, as I've never had one of the PP upgrades happen without a problem (I've never had a problem upgrading ZenCart, Vbulletin, Simple Machines, phpAdsnew, Portals.......so I can't that much of a dumbass) and getting answers quickly on these products doesn't happen.

Clearer instructions on what every upgrade means will help.

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 05:24 PM

OK -- after spending an hour searching the forums for more on this and finding nothing -- I looked at the code in the upgrade.php and it would appear that all of the scripts are in that -- and not individual files that one would upload as the upgrade document would leave you to believe -- is that true?

Since I'm at 2.0 and need to get to 2.5 -- it would appear that I will see a screen asking what version I'm running -- and I'll select 2.0. It then looks like it will then instruct me that it will run upgrades to 2.3, then 2.4, then 2.5, and finally the zipcode upgrade.

Is this correct -- do I upload all files but the config and Install to the server (will I need to change the CMOD of any files because of overwriting files?) and just run the upgrade.php as above -- or are there actually version scripts I need to find from somewhere?

Chuck S · June 19th, 2006, 05:45 PM

You upload all files except the config-inc.php and run upgrade.php and run the applicable upgrades and then delete upgrade.php

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 05:53 PM

alright -- I'm going in

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 06:16 PM

OK -- in the second step (2.3) I got the below errors.

Done! You should continue to next step

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 06:22 PM

I continued through the other steps -- and it looks like it took except for no thumbnails. I guess I'll try to rebuild those now.

On the impost zipData files -- when done I got the following message

Quote:

Preparing to insert Zip Code data...
Zip code data installed. You can the zipData.sql file from your server.

should it say: Preparing to insert Zip Code data...
Zip code data installed. You can DELETE the zipData.sql file from your server.

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 06:27 PM

On the index page -- I don't have any thumbnails, but I do on the category pages.

When I go into admin to scan the database and tell it to "Check for and create thumbnails" I get the following message:

Unable to read the format of file: /home/moparsty/public_html/classifiedads/data/4/90401968_CHRYSLER_For_sale.doc

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 06:28 PM

Ok -- when I go and rebuild all Thumbnails -- it put them on the Index page.

Chuck S · June 19th, 2006, 06:29 PM

We do not do non image files such as doc files in classifieds

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 06:37 PM

Valid point -- I wonder how it got there in the first place?

What was that first group of errors about?

Big Kahuna · June 19th, 2006, 06:54 PM

I've gotta tell you this went pretty smooth compared to previous upgrades. I'm really happy about that -- as I'm too swamped to add to my problems. I'm looking around at the new options -- and Im impressed.

In the back of my mind I wonder what if any problems I'll have from the errors that appeared in the 2.3 upgrade.
