Should I removed mods/T P befpre upgrading?

I think they are intact, because he did tell me that he backup the databases before he did a restore.  And he had restored them whent he restore of the backup failed.

The DB was there and intact, but not accessable for some reason i still dont know why.
But i manage to get to export it to my local machine, then removed the old one, then uploaded all the files from my testsite, got permission errors on all files, deleted it again, uploaded a fresh set of a full install 1.1rc3 (that i had a hard time find, case SMF was down, and when they came back, no file were there as usuall), Uploaded all the new files again, run the install, it was there Uploaded the full package of TP, ran the install, worked like a charm
Then went in, deleted the db from the fresh install, imported the old DB, ran the install files from both SMF and TP and now it's up and running with all content there
This was by far the hardest support i have done so far, but  i fixed it, the tea taste GREAT right now

Marian, ou have a working upgraded forum now, both SMF and TP are updated to the latest versions, all you other mods are gone, so those you want there you have to install again, but really check that they are working with the never versions before you install them.
The themes you have will work, but give errors, so eather uninstall them and just leave the default themes (Core, babylon, Yabbsee) and then install new themes that works with your setup now, I have 19 themes for SMF 1.1rc3 and TP V.095 in my download section, you can also find them in Crips board here in the forum.
Remove all the old themes and folders from your forum before you install new ones, that way you keep your dirs clean and easy to maintain there

Thanks G6 and I have shown my appreciation with a donation for Dennis, which I was going to do anyway next week, but I decided to put it on my credit card and make the donation now, and thanks again.Ã,  I was so sure everything was gone and I should have never attempted this on my own, next time I won't.Ã,  I know what my limitations are, LOL.

Now, to find new themes!Ã,  :up:
