TinyPortal v0.8.6

[Jeff]

I am trying desparately to upgrade to SMF 1.1 RC2 and TP V0.086, but for the love of GOD, I can't get the package manager to work.

550 Failed to change directory.

What in the world am I doing wrong... 

I have 6 forums to upgrade and cannot do any as I can't get this through my testbed.  The 1.1 RC2 upgrade goes fine, but TP is not upgrading....

You mean you cannot install TP v 0.8.6?

[Jeff]

that is correct. 

In using the package manager to upgrade TP v.8.6, I cannot make it work.

Please copy and paste any install errors here, but then cancel the install, and we will help you figure it out.

package manager - browse packages
    I see TP 0.86 listed there.  Click apply mod

prompted to enter FTP information.
Enter FTP information:
localhost port21
uname - xxxx
password - xxxx
local path to SMF /forum

I know the uname & pw are correct.  Click proceed and get the same screen back with:

550 Failed to change directory.

I have CHMOD'd directories & files to no avail...

Look in my sig form Basic install guide link. You may have to do a manual install. It is not to hard really. But this sounds like a server configuration problem.

[borgBOB]

You could also try to uninstall the old tp first.

Fugi, I did not get any explanation on this..I can only guess it has something to do with a security module or something. But I know very little of these things.

[Jeff]

how exactly does one 'uninstall' the old TP version?

[borgBOB]

If uninstall is not an option, then do a manual install.
