Hello,
My webhost recently upgraded from PHP version 4.4.9 to 5.2.17 and my S9y 1.5.2 install is now dysfunctional. I see mention in the installation notes about needing to be on S9y 1.5.5 or later. I attempted to do an upgrade to V 1.6 after backing up my database and then expanding the contents of a Serendipity install archive over top my existing installation but I can't seem to trigger the upgrade. My blog location: http://klyment.com/serendipity/. Help, please. =) I hope it's something really simple I've overlooked.
Thank you. =D
Upgraded from PHP 4.4.9 to 5.2.17, S9y 1.5.2 not upgrading?

This might be a change of your physical path, Try to find out ... and if so, you might be able to reset it with your Database Admin Tool, like PhpMyAdmin, with
(Note: change the table prefix to yours)
Your errors were:

Code: Select all
UPDATE serendipity_config SET value = '/home/new/full/path/' WHERE name = 'serendipityPath';

Ian,
Thank you for your response. =) It appears as though my physical path was changed from /hsphere/local/home/klyment/klyment.com/serendipity/ to /hsphere/local/home/klyment0/klyment.com/serendipity/. I updated the serendipityPath variable in the serendipity_config table with the new path but am still getting the same error and am still not able to invoke the upgrade. Anything else I could check?

You still have that error.
Warning: readfile(../menu.htm): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/klyment0/klyment.com/serendipity/content.php on line 23
Is it there?
Is it readable?
Is it an embedded installation? Check all path settings.
Where do you have other full path settings?

Re: Upgraded from PHP 4.4.9 to 5.2.17, S9y 1.5.2 not upgradi
Sorry . . . I changed it back to the original setting but have changed it back again to the current physical path.
I removed what was on line 23 of content.php (it was calling menu.htm . . . used to be a menu bar tacked on below the blog) but the error still seems to be showing up for some reason.
I changed all other instances I could find of the full path: two more in serendipity_config related to anti-spam log files, one in serendipity_pluginlist related to serendipity_event_bbcode though the search brought up an additional 55 entries all in serendipity_pluginlist but I wasn't able to see the full path visible anywhere in each of the records.
Again, do I need to trouble shoot this before I can invoke the upgrade? The upgrade/installation documentation specifically notes that I need to be on S9y 1.5.5 or later if I am running PHP5 on my server. I'm hoping that an upgrade will "magically" make everything work again.

Try to clean up the files in templates_c. There all compiled templates reside.Klyment wrote:I removed what was on line 23 of content.php (it was calling menu.htm . . . used to be a menu bar tacked on below the blog) but the error still seems to be showing up for some reason.
Serendipity is magic!! Yes. But you will need to solve that first, I assume.Klyment wrote:Again, do I need to trouble shoot this before I can invoke the upgrade?

check into http://www.klyment.com/serendipity/sere ... _admin.php
and check all the absolute path settings in configurable options.
If this does not clear things up:
* try a different templates style.
* check again sitewide absolute path settings
* did you ask your ISP about changes?
* check /tmp path settings to be writable
* ....
* make sure your .htaccess and serendipity_config_local.inc.php files, the plugins/ , uploads/ and templates/ dirs are really writable
* upgrade your Serendipity (it can't get more worse, than now)
*
* always clear browsers and smarty compile caches to be sure a reload hits the truth.

Re: Upgraded from PHP 4.4.9 to 5.2.17, S9y 1.5.2 not upgradi
So . . . it turns out my webhost did a full migration of a bunch of servers which included new database servers and new host names for FTP servers. Apparently I was uploading to the old servers which were no longer serving my domain. Thanks for helping me with this trouble shooting and sorry for being a nuisance. =)

We love having nuisances like that, specifically if they get solved into 'sweetness'!
