I noticed SMF 1.1.4 was released a short time ago... seems okay to upgrade based on my dummy forum, but is there anything to watch out for?
No seem'd to work fine on my 2 sites
Can someone with Bloc's team verify that 1.1.4 is OK to upgrade to when using TP 0.9.8.
Steve
- im using SMF 1.1.4
- i successfully downloaded the package
- when e clicked on "Apply Mod", it gave me a result "The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF."
i dont know if its a 1.1.4 issue or my download is corrupt or im missing something
SMF 1.1.4 changes are limited to the "index.php" file in the root directory and an assortment of files in the "/Sources" directory. No template changes ensued with this released. TinyPortal 0.9.8 is fully compatible with SMF 1.1.0-1.1.4.
how come it always gives me a message "The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF."? am i missing something.
Any mod written for 1.1.3 will give the same error if you try to install it with 1.1.4. Until the TP Support have had time to have a look and then update TP 0.98 to work with 1.1.4, I suggest that you uninstall the patch, install TP 0.983 and then reinstall the patch. Likewise if you want to uninstall TP 0.983 from 1.1.4 you will have to uninstall the patch to be able to uninstall TP 0.983, then reinstall the patch.
i got it, i installed TP on 1.1.3 and upgrade my SMF to 1.1.4
IF YOU ARE DOING A FRESH INSTALL OF SMF 1.1.4 with TP 0.983, or you have encountered the error "The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF."" please add 1.1.4 in the package-info.xml after any place that says 1.1.3's using the same pattern as the previous versions compatible.
Or, download and replace the package-info.xml in your package with the one that is attached to this post.
*warning* I'm sure that this is safe, and works, but until Bloc has officially made whatever changes to TP, this is at your own risk.
BTW, it works great for me on 5 sites!
Only five? :P
They all cant have SMF/TP on them :) Just my favs, anyhoo.. I hope that file helps :)
how come my tinyportal panel is blank?

what other mods do you have installed?
And BTW, as mentioned. This 1.1.4 patch primarily works with the index.php file. I did notice one of my sites with a modified index.php(experimented with meta tags and some other stuff, I forget) didn't install correctly, forcing me to use a backup index.php, and everything was perfect.
nothing much.

Look at the stickies in the Installations board here.. or the Docs.

can you specify the link
Upgrading existing SMF sites with TinyPortal already installed will not cause any problems.
New installs of TinyPortal should only need the file: package-info.xml updated to include: <install for="1.1.4, 1.0.5, 1.0.6, 1.0.7, 1.0.8, 1.0.9, 1.1.10"> in the file.
Note:
It's not recommended that you do this for every package that fails, now.. or in the future. It's there as a safe guard. outdated packages could cause problems if there are major changes to the SMF files.

change your language to (english) ::) , no english utf-8 :-\ under server configuration.
woot got mine to work, the xml idea was what I needed :) thanks for the info.
I did a fresh Install of SMF 1.1.4 today for a friend, then I installed TP 0.9.8, it said no problems in the installations but it didn´t do anything, the Mod was installed in the Package list, but neither anything was to see from TP, and the files werent copied at all and probably also didnt had any database and file changes. Tried it now the 2nd time, same result. The Folders and files have the right permissions but it still doesnt work.
What can be the problem ??
You need i believe?.. to have TP already installed, then upngrade
It's the same way as always, the manuall install will work for you.
And how to is in the doc section and in the install board.

Why do i need to have TP already installed when I just installed FRESH the new SMF 1.1.4. which would kinda negate the fact that TP could be installed before, right ? ;)
So does TP not work with a fresh Install of SMF 1.1.4, do I have to have an older Version of SMF before ? Because when I make a fresh Install, of SMF 1.1.4. and then TP, i can hardly have TP installed before, can I...
Anyways, thx, then i unfortunately have to do the manual install. Weird though, it always usually worked with the normal install. No idea why it should not this time. What can effect this ?
There is already a topic about this in which some answers were given.
I went ahead and did the 1.1.4 upgrade to two forums with TP 0.9.8. Package Mgr upgrade worked flawlessly.
Just installed version 1.1.4 and tried Tinyportal with the modified xml, but still no joy :(
I cannot log out after doing the upgrade 1.1.4.
I'm using helios Multi TP
This is error message I receive in lower right corner of screeen
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tportal_version() in /home/domainc/public_html/forums/Sources/Load.php(1726) : eval()'d code on line 510
------------------------------
I cannot go into admin section as well, even though it lets me click on it and insert my password.
WHen I click logout I get below error message
An Error Has Occurred!
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.
------------------------------------------
I have tried loggin out and back again, but it doesn't work.
Oops! I went back to it and it let me login and logout, but the TP isn't working.
So... the original thing about not letting me logout was probably a session timeout or something.
Regardless, The same error message is still in lower right corner of screen.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tportal_version() in /home/domainc/public_html/forums/Sources/Load.php(1726) : eval()'d code on line 510
So... I could just some help
I am having the same problem and I am new at this.. I had just installed the 1.1.3 of the smf, and had everything working great, but now that the 1.1.4 update has been out, it messed me up so bad, I was getting the 404 errors, and I really want to use them both, but I want whats best for the forum.. if anyone has any advise at all, please help. I would like to get my site stable. thanks..

Might I suggest that blanket statements like this can cause trouble ... seeing as how there are several people in this thread and in others who ARE experiencing problems when upgrading existing installations.
That said, I have successfully upgraded both of my sites without any trouble.
Hmm I am sorry for this, I saw this thread when I first needed help for my site.. now after reading, it seams that the upgrade for the 1.1.4, shouldnt be rushed.. my bad.. I went ahead and got it up on my site.. no upgrade for tinyportal yet, so, now i will be busy taking the 1.1.4 off so that i can drop down, get that, then the tiny, and if I am not mistaking, I have to get some kind of patch? for the upgrade to the 1.1.4 for this all to work right??
lol I am so new I have no sig.. nada, thanks for listening to my rant and maybe so I will have a rave!! Peace..

If that's the case... what do you do to go back to the 1.1.3? My site users are gonna be upset.
I need to do something, maybe just copy the 1.1.3 files over the 1.1.4 will get it.
Anyway, if anyone knows a sure way to do it. There are probably more than a few of us that were too hasty to upgrade to 1.1.4.
Thanks
I don't know why it won't work for me - changing the package-info.xml. I downloaded the modified xml file that works, replaced the original in the zip file with the downloaded one, but it still won't work. Very strange?
updated 4 site with no problems at all -- lucky me
Same error or it not being compatible with this version of SMF? Or is there another error?
bad luck me....my case:the tiny portal doesnt match with the latest smf version.
If you read some of the threads on this, you might know why.. and the reason people don't read the existing thread(s)?? Coz people keep starting new ones.
Just says "The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted." I'll download the tinyportal again, just in case it is was corrupted when downloading?
i just follow the link in the admin section, and everything went well :)
There seem to be a million topics, which one would you be referring to? I have gone through pure hell the past 24 hrs since the 1.1.4 upgrade came out. My TP started to fail. I have since uninstalled and reinstalled both SMF and TP THREE TIMES. Right now I have a fresh SMF 1.1.3 with 1.1.4 patch installed, no TP. I am kind of leery of installing it yet.
Any more topics created regarding this will be locked.. As you can see, people are finding it difficult to follow.
I have merged some of these 1.1.4 topics, so if they have become a little out of sync.. apologies.
The reason is because people are getting confused of which topics to follow, or even find.
Please only use this topic.
Ok, ty Zetan, I am sure you are sick of this questioning line. But seriously, I have a fresh 1.1.3 install with 1.1.4 do i dare install TP and do the xml overwrite with it?
If you are seriously concerened about upgrading with the current TinyPortal, then I suggest you all wait until an official update is released.
Is it possible to just remove the TP .098 for now and keep a good working forums.
I still need to keep the Helios-Multi template working.
I've got a headline thing now telling users certain site features are down for Maintenance.
My forums is working with a big error message at the bottom of the screen.
I had logout problems, but I've not heard if any users are having logout problems.
reupload the files from the SMF package and you will have a clean SMF install. Offcourse ALL mods will be gone when you do that.

I had ads management package. I went into package manager and deleted it.
Now I only have the TP.
So, are you saying I should DL a complete new install version of SMF 1.1.4 and then copy the files over my current installation?
Domineaux, your line of questions is really SMF related. If you want a clean SMF install just install the SMF files again. That will rid your forum of any code related to mods.
on my site (running TP.98 and SMF1.1.3 and many mods) the update worked fine..
Indeed BlueSteel..any existing TP installations should not be touched by the SMF update. This site was just now updated, no hassle at all. But of course, other mods may need work.
Update from SMF 1.1.3. to 1.1.4 didn't work using the package manager.
A small upgrade did the trick, but after the upgrade to 1.1.4 TP 0.9.8 was gone!
Re-installing TP did not work.
Have to built the site again I am afraid.. well, tomorrow is a new bright day :)
(Off course there is a DB backup made before the upgrade.)
so bloc with1.1.3 ugraded with patch to 1.1.4 no tp installed, is it now safe to install tp?
