Your site looks like it is failing to connect to the database. Is the information in your config.php file unchanged? Is your SQL database up and running?

After you FTP your files to get 4.2.1 loaded again, go to
http://www.yoursitesname.com/forum/install/upgrade.php in your browser. (This information is from a previous post in this thread)You will need to enter your customer code from vb and then the update is done automatically. Apparently, there will be an option presented to you to select the version. Information given was select the left option to get 4.2.1. Before you do ANYTHING else after the update completes, you should go in and remove the folder called /install/ from your server. This is from a 70 year old. Consider that as you proceed! The message above that says you can reload 4.2.1 is news to me. Prior to that, I thought you had to get the ISP to do it from a backup. I was told you can't go backwards in vb updates. But WHAT THE HELL DO I KNOW! Elmer --------------- Added [DATE]1381419869[/DATE] at [TIME]1381419869[/TIME] --------------- OK. STRAIGHT UP! Does anyone know for sure that you can reload 4.2.1, run update, select from a "choice" the version that you want, and go back to 4.2.1! I need a confirmation on this! If it is correct, v4.2.2 is fricken history on my forum. I will go back to v4.2.1 immediately. Elmer |

Does anyone know what the benefits of 4.2.2 are over 4.2.1? Will my forum run faster with a new version of PHP? Or is it mostly updates to Facebook + PayPal and adding Panjo? I don't use any of those things, so I don't want to pursue this headache if it's not going to result in any performance or security improvements.
Thanks! |

I have the ISP making backups every night so I'm pretty sure they can put me back to "Monday" as I did the update on Tuesday morning. If they put me back to Monday, won't I be on 4.2.1 sans posts of Tuesday and today? Elmer --------------- Added [DATE]1381420533[/DATE] at [TIME]1381420533[/TIME] --------------- Quote:
Dude! If you're on 4.2.1 STAY THERE! I wish to hell I had. Elmer |

You don't need a backup, upload the 4.2.1 files then run the upgrade.php it worked for me on all my sites I tested this first on my test site to make sure it worked first
Just make sure you pick the left side option when going from 4.2.2 to 4.2.1 |

Ok thanks Elmer! Will do. I'll duplicate our current forum in a test directory and run the upgrade to see how much would break.

I wish I had the "smarts" to do this before I did the upgrade. I might not have multiple threads and a ticket open on here now. Elmer --------------- Added [DATE]1381423642[/DATE] at [TIME]1381423642[/TIME] --------------- Status. I reloaded 4.2.1 back on my forum. I lost NO post data. I turned on my 1 product that failed because of 4.2.2 I can now upload attachments. Let me know when 4.2.3 comes out and I'll watch from the sidelines and see if there are any repercussions from the update BEFORE I update. Thanks to all that responded. I staying on v4.2.1 for now. I'm too old for this nonsense. Elmer |
