Setting a test forum
Hello,
Below are the steps I followed while setting up a testvb : 1. Have got a folder - forums in public_html & live_vb354 database for the live forums. 2. Have got a folder -testvb in public_html (all files copied from live forums folder in server) & test_vb354bk database for the test board. 3.Have edited th config.php of testvb to make the db name to be - test_vb354bk Now here are my clarifications: 1.Do I run a upgrade script for the testforums - testforums/install/upgrade.php? 2.Any edits required for the setting AdminCP >vBulletin Options > Cookies and HTTP setting > Path to save cookies? For info the Path to cookies in my live forum is "/" 3.Any edits required in the .htaccess file of testvb? Please clarify. As I am having issues of links in live forum navigating to the test forums and vice versa. Let me know how to fix the issue. |

Is this a test site for mods or you made a copy to test an upgrade to vB 4.0?
--------------- Added [DATE]1261062595[/DATE] at [TIME]1261062595[/TIME] --------------- Ok well no time to wait so I'm assuming since you posted in the vB4 area it is for vB4 Test Upgrade. Quote:
1. If your ready to test the copy of your live site for upgrade to vB4 then yes but you need to upload all the vB4 files before you run the upgrade script. Also have you disabled all mods etc and reverted to the default style? More info on disabling mods here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...grading-to-4-0 2. I would set that to the folder the name i.e. it should have it selectable so yes. Also make sure in the admincp the url's have been updated to reflect the new location of the site since it believes it is your live site, you and me know it's a test . 3. I would rename it and see if it works without it. There is some info here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...-URLs-htaccess but if your using UTF8 or any languages you will need to enable the low quality urls I forget the term they have in admicp. Gold release should be monday. Mike |
