Fatal installation error

Post by EAnushan »

Your Portal Version: p3p 1.22
Your phpBB Type: Standard phpBB3
MODs installed: Yes
Your knowledge: Basic Knowledge
Boardlink: local board not live yet

What have you done before the problem was there?
Tried to upgrade from PHPBBPortal 1.2.2 to Board3 Portal 1.0.3

What have you already tryed to solve the problem?
Tried to run some functions independently, but I'm afraid I may have done it wrong.

Description and Message
I have a board with PHPBBPortal 1.2.2 installed on it. I was planning to upgrade it to Board3 Portal 1.0.3. I've done all the necessary edits and everything seems to be fine until I get to the part where I have to run the installer (navigating to the install folder).

I get this message:

Code: Select all

Fatal installation error

index.php [ 274 ]

Module "" not accessible.
This message occurs after the Remove phpbb3 Portal step. I click the "Proceed to next step" button to proceed to the "Create Database Tables" step. That's when I get this error. I hope someone can help.[/i]

Just my luck that I fix it 2 minutes after I post this lol.

Well this is how I did it:
  1. Navigate to the root/install/ directory.
  2. Proceed to the "Remove phpbb3 Portal" step. DO NOT go any farther. (The error will occur)
  3. Navigate back to root/install/ directory.
  4. Now you will be given the option to have a fresh install for the portal.
This is just a quick fix, and I'm not sure if settings are saved (their easy enough to set back anyway). Anyhow, I think it may be a problem with the installer for going from PHPBB3Portal to Board3Portal 1.0.3. Hopefully someone can confirm or deny this and fix it if needs be.
