Installation Question Reply to topic


Hi all and first want to say thank you for developing BlogsPlus. It is really in needed!
I uploaded all files but not sure what to do next and don't want to lose my old blog entries so I am asking some hints to install.

So after uploading the files what should I do? Do I have to unintall my old Blogs first and then reinstall? Any hint is appreciated.
Thanks
Eddie

It should simply upgrade your previous version BUT back-up your original files and database tables first. If you have an issue, just post back here.

When I clicked on the Blog Index, it says Welcome, you need to install the module first!

Did I do anything wrong? Thanks for the quick response.

As with any module upgrade, you need to upgrade it first,
admin.php?op=modules

Find your module and click the edit button, then upgrade.

Hi Phoenix, after clicking on 2.0.1.0 Upgrade to 9.1.5 I got a database error. I tried to reuploaded all the files again and still get the same database error.

hmm, an indication of the error would help.

Possibly the admins error tho I thought I had eliminated it.

Check your cms_admins table - you may already have an entry for radminsblogs - delete that entry from the table and you should be good to go.

It does not give detail about the erro. it only says that and "The webmaster has been notified of the error" and I keep checking my email and have not seen the error. I am checking the cms_admins table now.

I checked cms_admins table and there is no radminsblogs entry yet.

hmm, I could have sworn that might have been the error.

admin.php?op=settings&s=8
Change the first 4 settings to "Yes" and you should get an indication of the error when you install it again.

Hi Phoenix,
Here is what I got:

modules/Blogs/common.php
Notice line 25: Undefined index: Blogs
includes/db/db.php
CMS Warning line 75: On /admin.php?op=modules&upgrade=19 While executing query "ALTER TABLE cms_admins ADD radminblogs TINYINT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT ''" the following error occured: Invalid default value for 'radminblogs' In: /home/angkorth/public_html/includes/classes/installer.php on line: 94

hmm, that's very odd - the installer shouldn't be trying to do that Confused

approx lines 117 to 119 of cpg_inst.php, change to if ($prev_version == '2.0.1.0' || $prev_version == '1.0') { $installer->add_query('ADD', 'admins', 'radminblogs TINYINT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0'); } and try it again.

I also notice your LEO doesn't seem to be working on your site - do you have a problem with your htaccess file?

Hi Phoenix,
I've gone through a few steps beyond the installation and it seems like everything is working. I am checking to see the rest of the module to see if there is anything wrong but it seems like it is good now.

Thanks so much for walking this through with me!

What do you mean about LEO is working? Can you explain a little more? I am not very technical as you can tell.

I'm sorry you encountered so much trouble - not seen that one before.

Regarding LEO - when I click on any links on your site, I get errors.

You have LEO on which means a typical link like,
index.php?name=Forums
then becomes
Forums.html
