Vb4.2 + Pp811 navbar problem
 

Just upgraded to vB 4.2 and Pp 8.11

I cant access my adm-index.php I get the error
"You are not a valid administrator or moderator!"
the Pp navbar is not there

I dont find the source-vb42.xml file but other 2 are 777

I can't access my vB forum if the old photopost navbar plugin is enabled error given is "I cannot connect to the database."

well did you run your upgrade for example if you upgraded from 8.0 to 8.11 there is an upgrade where as if you ran 8.1 there is not. based on the error your saying I would think you have not ran your upgrade which adds the usergroup captcha field which is why you can not get usergroup perms.

There are 3 xml files in the install directory the ones we note on the documentation.
Your correct action would be to upload all the files except the 2 config files and run the upgrades you where suppose to run. Once you do that follow the instructions for upgrade and go to your admin panel and generate the xml file and install it into vb.

The only way your going to get an error on your forum is if the xml is not correctly permissioned so that it can be saved with your proper site info.

The documentation was extensively reworked with the series 8 to make it easier to follow telling you step by step what to do.

I was looking for the XML's in the Pp root dir ;)
and did not run the upgrade...

Fixed now, thank you Chuck

Yep number one issue of Photopost 8. We state in the announcement to read the documentation on upgrade since alot has changed in how things are handled in PP8 and no one reads the documentation and everyone comes here saying there is a problem. ;)
