Upgrade vShare v2.4 to vShare 2.5

[admin]

If you are using vShare 2.4, you can upgrade to vShare 2.5 If you are using older version, you must first upgrade to version 2.4.

You can see vshare upgrade instructions from your version of vshare at

http://www.buyscripts.in/vshare-release.html

Before upgrading take a backup of your site including database.

If you are not familiar with installing scripts or upload in BINARY mode, don't do it yourself, get some one else to do this for you.

HostOnNet.com provide vShare upgrading for $5.

Updating files and Templates

To upgrade, download

http://www.buyscripts.in/vshare/upgrade_2.4_to_2.5.zip

Upgrade will overwrite existing files that have been changed from last release.

If you made changes in templates, you need to make the changed in the modified templates. You can compare two files using WinMerge.

Unzip and upload all files and folder to your server in BINARY mode. Overwrite existing files.

Upgrading Database

After all files are properly uploded, run the upgrade script by visiting the url

http://yourdomain.extn/install/upgrade_2.4_to_2.5.php

This will take care of database upgrade. Delete install folder after upgrade is finished.

My database was damaged in the transfer with an error. How can I get round this?

Current DB version : 2.4
ERROR: Unable to execute query

ALTER TABLE `signup` ADD `adult` TINYINT( 1 ) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;
Duplicate column name 'adult'

admin can you please stick to a standard when you change templates in future, sometimes you add Indentation to templates and sometimes you dont...then next update you swap it all round again. this makes it very hard and annoying to update all the templates with winmerge.

mods or plugins would be great. i agree, i made too many changes and i like how things are.

OMG...I just upgraded to 2.5 what the HELL MAN!?!?!?!?!?!

User profiles have NO PERSONAL INFO

for some reason the person's name has disappeared...

(DID YOU GUYS CHANGE the path to where someoene's name is??@?@?@?@?) WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT!?!?!?!?

what was the reason for 2.5 anyway? I saw absolutely NO changes except for the admin which has new colors and then the other ton of errors

Please help!

I have upgraded one of my sites to v2.5 and when I use the import video feature inside the admin area I get a white screen. I am not referring to the import folder. I am referring to the import video and not the folder.

Basically, when I input the information and press submit the screen does white.

This is what I have done to resolve, but with no Success:

1. Uploaded all files again in Binary
2. Reinstalled entire site from scratch

Neither of these fixed the problem.

Lastly, I am using PHP4 on my server and not PHP5. This cannot be change as I am on a semi dedicated server.

Please help!

This error is bacuse the field is already in your table.

Have you run the SQL file in phpMyAdmin ? Just open the SQL file and see all fields are on phpMyAdmin.
