A little help
 

I know this should go to vbulletin.com, but I havent got an answer over there so ill give it a shot here, maybe some good samaritan can help this fool noob...

Im getting the error when upgrading from 3.8.7 to 4.2.2 about unable to create directory to hold your attachments bla bla.

Ive chmod -R 777 every attachments dir i can find...

Did it to /public_html/attachments
to /public_html/images/

to /www/attachments
/www/images/

/home/attachments

Still getting the same issue.. WHAT TO DO PLEASE?

What is it set to in admincp/Attachments/attachment Storage Type

Sir, I cannot go in admin CP... I botched the 1st try. had to reload the backup and try again... It started the upgrade fine till the step 89 with that error.

Is there a way I can enter the ACP?

Im as lost or worse than Limbert's son

Darn why cant I just do a darn upgrade like everyone else? :(

Did you change what is meant to be done in the class_core.php file
Also did you not disable plugins from config before updating?

Whenever you upgrade all of your add-ons/mods should be disabled. Try disabling them all and see if the upgrade works.

Most of them won't work with vB4 anyway.

here is another change to be done

I disabled all addons via admincp before the upgrade.
I can not axs admincp anymore to check or do anything.

Alternatives?

Yes!

If it is not too late STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING!

KEEP version 3!

You'll rue the day you ever "upgraded."
