No you won't. Hope this does not bother the DGT team :)

well, it shouldn´t since it´s kind of a "common" solution to all people that can´t be arsed to deal with all the chmod and stuff :)

HOxxy,

I've tried upgrading from 3.6.8 PL2 --> 3.71. PL2 but still getting the same 3.6.8 PL2

Done following all steps from your sig & DGT instructions.

Any solutions?

Arghhhh.... my fault.... my fault... sorry... I've found out the error.

Now I'm using the 3.7.2..... thanks for the tip....

(I HAVE to read in-between lines........)
 
@ Morpheus = Hahaa, I was looking for that last night when i was upgrading my board.... :( lol

@ Lacroi = This is because the files uploaded did not overwrite the old ones. You used cPanel file manager too extract the zip, correct? Won't work, upload the files manually.

@ Sh4d0w = In your FTP/cPanel File Manager, right click, and select where it says "CHMOD". CHMOD is just file permissions (can access/cant access) etc.


Cheers,

I dont get it, which is the keygen? i cant find it

ok i got it. Some of the checks failed, is it ok/is it normal that it happened?
 
I had actually posted this to the wrong thread about 30 minutes ago, I deleted this post from that thread and reposting it to the correct thread.

DGT_Released.nfo
Before installation or updating vBulletin you must:
1) Check the release with validator.php to make sure, that it does not
contain any changed files or just use our release without keygen.
2) CHMOD all files 0777 to write the new data in them.
3) Execute keygen.php
4) Remove keygen.php from server after genering and enjoy.

WARNING: DON'T FORGET to return CHMOD back beforå start using your
forum. It's safety requirement!
Click to expand...


#2 States that you should CHMOD all files to 777 to write the new data to the files.

Then the WARNING States Not to forget to return the CHMOD back before you start using the forums.

Not all of the files had the same CHMOD did they?
What CHMOD do you return them to?

I did the CHMOD 777 without looking to see what everything was before doing so. :(

What To Do Now?
What Do I CHMOD All The Files Back To?

Thanks.
HF

{EDITED}

Never Mind!!!
I Followed Hoxxy Install Guide and Found My Answer.

can i know how can i make directly CHMOD 777 to all files & vice-versa??
I am using C-Panel 11

WS_FTP is a pretty popular FTP program to use.

You can do all the CHMOD in one CTRL-A + Right Click + Properties + 777 + Ok
 
I received the follow error trying to upgrade to 3.7.2.

Any ideas?

Fatal error: Could not open /home/MYINFO/public_html/forum/includes/xml/bitfield_vbulletin.xml in /home/MYINFO/public_html/forum/includes/class_bitfield_builder.php on line 126
Click to expand...

All files are Present and Accounted for.
The file class_bitfield_builder.php is CHMOD to 644 and the Folder Includes is CHMOD 755

I'm stuck.

Theres a link to an install/upgrade guide in my sig' it covers "how to..?" for keygen and non keygen versions ;)
Click to expand...

ok sorry i didn't see that, anyway i installed mafiascript's release, thanks.
 
Well,... I'm still unable to get my vB to upgrade but i have a question,...

Once done using the Keygen.php and getting your Licence Number and Customer Number, Does this give you the ability to use the vBulletin.org site using that info? Or does it still not work and you need a purchased copy of it from them?

you wont be able to access the vbulletin.com(.org) site without a legitimate license from them. i would not even attempt it, they may have systems in place to shoot down your site if you try to verify a generated key.

Okay,... I wasnt sure. Thank You for the info.

I wont even click on a link to them from here. I alway use copy shortcut.
I know they have systems to track where people have clicked from and what websites they have just visted to get to them so thats why i always just copy the url and open a new window and then paste it in the address bar.

Heck they can track your IP, Web Browser, Screen Resolution. Your OS, Country, ETC,...

But Anyway,...

I figured out what my problem was with the error message above!

Using Hoxxy Upgrade Post Step #5 says to CHMOD the files and Directories Back to 644 and 755 then do either your Install or Upgrade.

Well,... The only way i was able to get mine to work was to do the Upgrade First after doing the KeyGen and then CHMOD all the files and Directories back after Upgrade finished.

I'm not sure if others had that issue or not but that was the only way to resolve mine.

So far everything seems to work except for some missing images which i need to re-upload, No biggie. I made a backup of the whole directory and database before upgrading so i just need to work on it.


Thanks for your Reply GJComputer.

Is this a better release to use than mafia's version? Since this one has a keygen for the board or does it even matter what version I use? I have mafia's version installed right now, but will just over right DGT's version on mafia's if that will work ok with out messing up my forums.

Thanks for the info guys.
 
Seems as if there is a call back in this one as Someone has sent me a email from the host and I only setup the forum the day before.
