I think you have to go the long way on this, it the core is broken, nothing will work no matter what we do.

So follow this.

1. Set your forum to SMF Default Core (even if it is a mess it have to be set as default)
2. Browse to Simplemachines.org and download the update package from there.
3. Extrach the package, and upload overwrite all the files with the ones from the package.
4. Point your browser to the DB update file /yourforum/update.php and it will fix any errors if any in the DB

That will take care of any errors in the SMF files (also remove your mods, but there is no other way to save your forums content.
NEVER leave the Default theme, this is what you have to use until everything is back on track !!

1. Eather you install the TP V.0971 from the package manager no (This is the FIRST mod you install, not anuthing else)

2. If you get errors from the installer, (shouldent be any with fresh files from SMF) but IF. Please come back here with WHAT error you got and we take it from there.

DONT install any other themes, or mods until I say it's clear to do so now  ;)

I just ran the "big update" pack for SMF 1.1.1 with no errors.  After the update however, the CORE theme is still broken to hell.  I think I will do a complete, fresh, reinstall of SMF.  Please advise on how I can export / import the tables so I dont lose any data. :)

G6Cad

1, backup the TP-Downloadsfolder if you have any downloads in your site, and the Attachments folder
2. Backup the 2 files in your forum root called settings.php and settings.bak.php
3. REMOVE ALL files from your forum folder

4. Download and extract all the files from the FULL SMF install package to your local machine.
5. Upload ALL the files to your forum folder

6. Upload and overwrite the settings.php and settings.bak.php, tp-downloads and the attachments folder.

Refresh your forum

7. Install TP to your forum now BEFORE you install ANY thing else, no themes, no mods no nothing before you have it working in the default theme.

DO NOT TOUCH THE DB IN ANY WAY !!

A fresh install using the old settings.php file returned the same error.  I'm ont he phone with my host.. appparently the database is somehow broken..

MattMcFarland

WHEN TRYING TO REPAIR THE DB:

UNIQUE and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `ID_TOPIC` UNIQUE and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `ID_MEMBER` More than one INDEX key was created for column `ID_MEMBER`

Please NOTE: I did not modify the DB manually in any way shape or form. Just did a manual install of TP unto a non-modded SMF site.

MattMcFarland

I've got together with level 3 on my host.  We have tried everything.  We tried doing a manual table export / import on a fresh install and the settings.php overwrite.  Nothing works.  This database somehow is broken.  Please tell me I can salvage the data.. :(  I have a years worth of posts etc.. the damage is phenomenal..

MattMcFarland

Fixed the issue by duplicating the current theme.  Dont ask me why it worked.. I'm still working on this...The JAVA scripts are broken too...Oh man.... I'm ready to bang my head against the all  :tickedoff:

MattMcFarland

UPDATE:

Wiped Server Space, Installed SMF, THen INSTALLED TP, then copied the config files over.  Heres what happened:  The site looks right, but the JAVA SCRIPTS are broken.. THis is because something inside the database is not right and could VERY WELL BE a TinyPortal Issue.

NOTE: I did NOT touch the DB in ANYWAY. Just like you told me.. I followed your instyructions to a tee. I took this very seriously

G6Cad

How on earth will you get things to work when you dont read the support I give you.
I take it more or less like you arent very interested in the support as you dont follow what i take my time and write to you.

Look up in my last post before this.

DO NOT TOUCH THE DB IN ANY WAY !!

As you refuse over and over again to follow the instructions from me, i stop my support in this thread.

Just so you know, you would have had a working forum a long time ago if you just took the time and read what i wrote to you, and trusted me with that i actually KNOW this.
But now you are free to proceed in your own terms and ways.  ;)

I did everything. and NO I DID NOT TOUCH the DB.. Guess what? IT DIDNT WORK.  And you're telling me I'm not listening?  RIGHT AFTER STEP 6 I NOTICED THE SITE WAS STILL BROKEN.  YES I DID EVERYTHING YOU SAID.. After your support didnt work I took the next step to see if I could move the DB over manually, it didnt make anything worse at all so what gives?  I did a fresh-reisntall just like you told me.  I never touched the DATABASE.. I dont know where you're getting that.

Listen: I GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT and I TAKE IT VERY SERIOUSLY and I haven't a clue what you're talking about.  I also have backups (30 of them, daily backups) of the system...

Now its your turn to listen:
I did EVERYTHING YOU SAID.. IT DID NOT WORK.  I THEN TRIED A FRESH REINSTALL (do I have to iterate that one?  its simple..) and everything WORKED UNTIL I MOVED THE CONFIG FILES OVER (you know what those are right? the settings.php file?  Yeah.. That's not a DB IS IT?)

Conclusion:
the DB is SCREWED UP!  TP broke it.. I didnt.. I did everything you said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STEP BY STEP!

PS: The manual databse move was done in phpMyAdmin and moved from one backup dfb to another backup db with the original DB INTACT! That's still the one I'm working with!! It was just to move it over since your Idea of moving the php file over did NOT WORK.
