Title: Problem after installing 0.96 over 0.86 and SMFRC3
Post by: fugi on October 25, 2006, 05:01:33 PM
I had SMF 1.1RC2 with TP0.8.6.
Then I upgrade to SMF1.1RC3
and then tried to upgrade also to TP0.9.6.
The auto-installation didn't work so, I tried the old good way of manual install.
I uploaded/overwrote all the necessary files
then replaced TPortal.php with the fixed one,
run the Tportal_upgrade.php which gave no errors.

But the problem was that I didn't have any TP bar on the left,
or any other of the TP feautures (not even the TPADMIN link).

I found the premade manual install
http://www.tinyportal.net/smf/index.php?topic=9631.0
files and replaced mine with those.
The TP bar showed up but some problems still remain.

-I don't have the TPADMIN link
-In my profile the TP functions links don't work

-The pms don't show up on the header of the page like they used to.

The theme is the new SMF default theme.
My forum is at www.thmmy.gr

Please provide me with any solution u can think
Thanks in advance

You did greate, and every thing right, exept one little thing ;)

You used the wrong package of the premade manual files i;)

http://www.tinyportal.net/smf/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=9632.0;attach=6630

Find the same files you uploaded from the first package (the wrong zip) and remove them, then upload the ones from the link i posted here instead

F*ck!
Well, if i just upload the files in attachment they will overwrite the wrong ones don't they?
I mean i don't have to remove them firstly, do I?

No nothing happened.
After looking again and again I found that I have downloaded the correct file
I only gave the wrong link.
So it's not that the fault.
Any other ideas?

From what theme did you upgrade the forum and portal?

hm, was it smfone_blue
or the core(default) theme of SMF?
Can't say for sure

Most probably from Core

The thing is that the error you get is with in SMF and not any of the TinyPortal files, so are you sure you didnt get any errors from the upgrade before you installed TP ?

To be honest I didn't check the error log before upgrading to TP,
because I have forum in maintenance and made the two upgrades one after another.

But I do have TP problems, as I said in first post
-I don't have the TPADMIN link
-In my profile the TP functions links don't work

EDIT:
I get "Unable to load the 'tpgallery' template." and so on

Seems to be language strings errors, did you have any other languages installed and set as default when you upgraded ? And what themes are you using ? this is so confusing caues there is no TP admin link in default.

My forum has an other language installed but
I always use English as the default language to avoid such issues.
I also used english while upgrading.

Well, i think this is only going to be solved by starting over.
If you download the update package for SMF 1.1rc3 and extract the files and then upload them manually and really make sure they all get uploaded correct with no broken files. (Backup settings.php and settings.bak.php)
And then do the same with the manual TP package ( need to upload and replace the premade files again as you replace all the files from SMF, dont delete any files, just overwrite them all )

Then download and upload the repair_settings.php from simplemachines.org downloads/tools section and point your browser to the file, follow the steps (it shows what files need to be writable to) and then refresh the site and see if you are home free

What's the purpose of
dbmanual_tp_install.php
Maybe to run it?

At now I don't care so much not having the TPadmin link,
but I care more not having the tp functions in my profile.
Maybe if I run the above file some necessary tables will be created which will solve my problem?

I think that i'm close to the solution of the problem.
What permission should the files
TPgallery.php
TPdlmanager.php
TPlinkmanager.php
etc have? (they r the files of the TP functions)

No they have nothing to do with Tp just yet.
They are only dummy files (not implemented)
I really do hope thats NOT the TP things you think you are missing out on now fugi ???
I will not talk to you for a year ahead if thats what you have been trying to get to work in your forum ?

Gallery items is a dummy file.
Go in to your admin section and turn that module OFF same for the link and staff module, they are not builded in yet, they are just dummy lnks for testing the layouts on the links and the module settings page.

For articles and uploaded files I cant say whay they wont work
But try another time to upload all the files from the manuall TP package here http://www.tinyportal.net/smf/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item443

Extract the files and upload them to your forum and overwrite the old files again. This time, please use another ftp program.
Try FileZilla.
Download it from here and install it. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=21558

When I try to load Link manager from my Admin panel
I get an error "Unable to load the 'main' template"
Is this what supposed to happen -is it also dummy? -
or it should load sth?
