New release phpBB3 3.0.2 and ¿the portal?

[calproye]

New release of phpBB3 (3.0.2), Kevin. Is your portal compatible? and how could we upgrade to 3.0.1 to 3.0.2 (because your mod alter the database)?


Thanks in advanced and

Best regards.


PD: is there any change to language files to do the translation?

Hi calproye,

just noticed this morning that the new release is out. I have not tested it yet with the portal.
But i know at least from one installation that runs fine with 3.0.2.

and how could we upgrade to 3.0.1 to 3.0.2

Just as usual - the portal is a mod like every other. I like the automatic update best.

(because your mod alter the database)?

We have our own table for the portal, the phpBB3 DB update won't touch the portal settings. As well as we don't touch the phpBB core tables during the installation. The portal table is independent from the rest of the phpBB3 database.
So this should be save in each direction.

i already upgrade my phpbb 3, from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2 (using automatic update)
and everything inside my intergration phpb3 with board 3 portal look fine

just my logout redirect to portal mod missing and need to re "mod"

I've just upgraded to phpBB3.0.2 and it's screwed the portal table in SQL. I get the following when I try to open the portal.

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Table 'minehoffm1.PORTAL_CONFIG_TABLE' doesn't exist [1146]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

Is there a way I can re-establish this.

Thanks in the mean time.

the board the fault relates to is: http://www.minehoff-mcc.com/phpBB3/portal.php
The forum if at: http://www.minehoff-mcc.com/phpBB3/index.php

oky doky, Disregard the above post.

Read the FAQ on the error and manually updated the files and all is well - it seems.
Don't know why my update did this when the others above had no probs.

Sorry, will read first next time.

Keep up the good work.

New edit - updated 14 July
Sorry was very busy when I originally had this problem, but you are right I should have given a fuller explanation of the fix.

Basically I did and automatic update of phpBB to version 3.0.2. This gave some errors on completion. Sorry I didn't take a note of the errors.

This left the Portal and the forum unavailable for access.

Copying the new updated files that phpBB 3.0.2 generated in "{phpBBroot}/install/update/new" by the auto Update process cured the fault in the forum but not the portal.

This is when I contacted this forum for help.

However after engaging brain, reading the FAQ on installing Board 3 portal and checking the files installed on my forum I found the updated phpBB 3.0.2 files had lost the mod changes to the template files required for Board 3.

Basically I had to re-apply the edits to the template files that you would when installing Board 3 portal in the first place. Note that not all the files are altered when doing the auto update to phpBB so some will still have the required changes.

Hope this helps

How did you do the update - automatic update?

I'm getting this error when trying to access my portal now:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Table 'frogsgroup2.PORTAL_CONFIG_TABLE' doesn't exist [1146]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

[ham1299]

OK, I just looked, and I have
phpbb_portal_config
in my database. What's going on? How do I fix this?

[ham1299]

Nevermind. I figured it out.

The second one to let us know that he has fixed it by himself, without explaining for other users what he has done ...

Obviously in some constellation during the update (automatic update?), the code of the portal in the constants.php get kicked out / deleted.
Maybe the constants.php is replaced by a new, original one.
The forum needs this code to find the portal DB table, that is what the error message says.

As it is said in the FAQ - [EN] Table 'your_db.PORTAL_CONFIG_TABLE' doesn't exist:

Please add the changes to the includes/constants.php as described in the install.xml

If you've done it already, please make sure you've uploaded the file to your webspace.

@ham1299 & graeme: how did you do the update? automatic update?

[OBeer-WAN-Kenobi]

Hi guys! Just FYI,
I just upgraded both of my forums (which have board3 portal installed) to 3.0.2 from a previouslly fresh install of 3.0.1 and had absolutely no problems. I used automatic update and allowed it to merge the changed files. It worked flawlessly.

@ham1299 & graeme: how did you do the update? automatic update?

Sorry! I think my error had nothing to do with the portal. I used the automatic updater, and it was having some strange problems. It got caught in a loop, for lack of a better word. It kept saying includes/constants.php needed to be updated (by merging), but once it did, for some reason it didn't catch it. I tried several times before deciding to try something else. So, I uploaded the NEW file (rather than the merged one) to get me out of the installer. That did the trick, but then I couldn't access the board b/c key things were missing in the includes/constants.php file. So, after getting out of the updater, I overwrote the new file with my merged one, and that did the trick. So, it was some problem I had with the updater plus user error. Now that it's sorted out, the portal is working perfectly! Thanks for the superior support! Again, sorry I didn't post specifically what I did - I figured it'd confuse everyone!
