New X2.7.5.2 installation error

01 Sep 2011, 22:51

Dear all:

I have been using X2.6.4 with great satisfaction. :D

Recently had downloaded the newest X2.7.5.2, unzipped the entire contents and put them up in a new folder (for a test-drive purpose) onto the same web server. However, when I pointed my browser into that new folder, nothing showed up at all. I had even tried changing the writing rights of that entire folder to 777, but still no luck.

From my working X2.6.4 folder, I saw that my server's php version is 5.2.6, and there was only one warning sign (the 'suhosin', and the warning message was: Oh, bad luck. This is some 'hardened php' project which went wrong. You might have to disable it.) in all PHP and Apache module checks. Am wondering if I had missed out something simple and obvious for the new installation? Help is cordially appreciated!! Thanks.

Hi, Nick:

I just figured out what went wrong with my new installation - some unzipped files were corrupted during the uploading so that they were missing in the new folder on my web. Now that I had got the new IV X2752 up and running, I wonder if the upgrade tutorial (https://www.photo.gallery/documentation/upgrade-imagevue/ ) also applies to my v2.6.4 to v2.7.5.2 upgrade (as I would want to keep all my settings and image/mp3 contents ..etc.)? Many thanks again for your help.



Regards,

It does, just follow the "general upgrade" paragraph further down, as it is quite simple to upgrade if you are already on 2.6.4.
Documentation wrote:Simply upload all files and folders from your downloaded Imagevue archive, except the content/ folder. By doing this, you will be overwriting your gallery with new files, yet retaining your content/ folder with your images, files and settings.
You will also retain all your custom theme- and setting, as they are stored in unique files under your config, that are retained.

Yes the documentation applies to both versions. Imagevue 2.7 changed some file locations, but it has an auto-migration script, so it will arrange the stuff by itself. (Or at least should)
