Installation fails

I have tried to update the portal from 1.0.6 to 2.0.0, but that gave me some errors. And due to the irritating way the file is located during the install, I didn't get a copy of all that went wrong. I then uninstalled it to try a fresh installation. That gave me some other errors instead.

Right now I have a portal on my site, but no way of setting it up or adding/removing blocks. And as I had a rather slim portal in the 1.0.6 version, all of these gazillions of blocks really cram up the way the site looks at the moment. Is there some way of fixing this?

It looks to me like you are missing the Mods category in the ACP. Is that possible? Is there any reason that this category might have disappeared?

Hi Naggie,
do you have a "Mods" Tab in your ACP? If the answer is yes, move it to a other tab and try again. I had the same problem, and after make this "changes" I could install the portal without errors.
best regards
Chris

I've been using phpBB since 2004, and I don't recall ever having a MODs tab. I also can't find any MODs section under any tab (which I believe I used to have a few years back).

Took me a while to work out what you meant
For future reference for others with this issue, go to System, Administration Control Panel in the ACP
You may need to delete any existing Portal tab from the list, starting from sub-categories within it.
You then need to recreate the .Mods tab, you can do this manually
create new tab called .Mods (the fullstop is important) with these settings:
Module language name: ACP_CAT_DOT_MODS
Module type: Category
Parent: No parent
Module enabled: Yes
Then re-run install/index.exe and install again

It's install/index.php not install/index.exe
