The above mentioned does not work. At all. After upgrade I try to log into the forum (or the adm-section) and it just re-routes back to the login-form.

All forums seems to be gone too, and the number of users registered in the database is not concistent with what is actually there.

A clean install of 2.6.0RC3 works like a charm.

The box is Linux, Apache 2.0.48, PHP 4.3.3.

Any ideas?

The forums only appear gone, because the consistency checker (mandatory step after upgrade) didn't run.

The solution is use the upgrade script at: http://bb.prohost.org/upgrade.tar.gz

Nope, same shit happens, the upgrade-script exits with the following, and it does not look like the concistency checker runs...:

Removing Index conf_key
Removing Index referer_id
Removing Index avatar_approved
Removing Index acc_status
SQL Upgrades Complete
Adding GLOBAL Variables

PLEASE REMOVE THIS FILE (/local/www/www.klanen.no/docs/buko/upgrade.php) UPON COMPLETION OF THE UPGRADE PROCESS.
THIS IS IMPERATIVE, OTHERWISE ANYONE COULD RUN THIS SCRIPT!

Did you run the consistency checker?

No, how could I have done that when the login-window is all that appears? Both for /adm/ and / of the forum root.

See the attached files, it's both the gui and the html-source outputs...

Some more info...

When testing the upgrade I do a copy of the original installation for both the database (mySQL 4.) and the WEB-tree. I change config and rebuild themes under the copy to ensure that apart from the actual physical location it is 100% correct and equal.

Since the original is in production I cannot test directly on it. I'm root and have shell-access, actually I do all things apart from rebuild themes and the upgrade itself from shell.

Before the upgrade the database has 771 active users, after it has 534. In the fud23_users table. So, it is safe to say that the upgrade "cleans up" more than it should Wink

In the upgraded database it has:
- 3 categories (3 in the original), fud23_cat
- 14 forums (14 in the original), fud23_forum
- 16 groups (16 in the original), fud23_groups
...and so on, the only table that seems to get messed up (I have not checked all tables) is the fud23_users.

I have also ensured that the "Administrator" users password is the same in the copy as in the original after upgrade.

So, I'm rather stuck Wink

Just upgraded now, and it worked. That is the actual upgrade in terms of giving output. I had to run the concistensy checker manually (from within adm of corse) after install, and then it appeared to have content.

However! The upgrade reduces number of users from 773 to 531...

I have no idea what else the upgrade has done to the database...

If you wish, I could give you the database tar'd... I guess it is also possible to grant you access to the server via SSH2, all software (Apache 2/PHP and mySQL 4) runs off the same box.
