XF 1.3 Trying to Upgrade

[Vidmarc]

Upgrade from 1.2.3

I've uploaded all the new files but when I try to do the upgrade it's trying to do a new install and asking for my server details etc. I seem to remember having the same problem last time I upgraded.

Any suggestions?

Are you sure it's upgrade package, not full package?

 

[Vidmarc]

I downloaded the upgrade package.

I downloaded the upgrade package.

Download-upload again to the correct folder on your server.

I followed the instructions and uploaded all the files. Baffled.

Why can't XenForo be upgraded like WordPress via the admin area?

I've submitted a support ticket.

What's the full name of the folder on your computer?
Is it xenforo_1.3.4_**********_upgrade?

I have responded to your ticket.

You wouldn't happen to use Transmit, would you?
Typically, incorrect settings in an FTP application are the cause of this.

xenforo_1.3.4_**********_upgrade

Yes, I'm using Transmit.

In which case you need to set it to merge, rather than overwrite.

As I said in the ticket, you will need to ensure config.php is restored as it will have been removed.
