Post Update From 1.2.0.27c To 2.0 - How I Did It (Steps For Dumbs) 
 
Hi all!

I have successfully updated my site to Icy Phoenix 2.0 from 1.2.0.27c . I followed the instructions at Readme file, but I founded some problems during the installation. Maybe this could help to some people in the same situation as me, so I will leave hear my installation diary.

Note: If you are going to follow these steps, take care on language:
If I say move file, i don't copy it, and vice versa.
If I say files, I don't refer to folders too. (and vice versa).
"server root" is your public_html folder, or www, de root folder of your server.
"website root" is the root folder of icy_phoenix installation. (where you installed icy)
by default, the actual dir is webiste root.


Update from 1.27:

1.- Locked the site.

2.- rename pafiledb/uploads -> pafiledb/downloads

3.- copied .htaccess and config.php to upper folder (for saving it)

4.- rename files/posted-images -> files/images

5.- removed adm, includes, language, and templates folders.

6.- removed all .php files, all .swf, and extension.inc, favicon.ico, robots.txt, jupload.jar, .htaccess, addform.html

7.- Step 11 of Readme tells: "pay particular attention to custom files and folders like these:" What does this means? particular attention on deleting them? or not deleting them?
What I did was not delete that folders, and as I had a copy of config.php on upper folder, I have restored it. Now, I have a copy upper and my root icy phoenix folder contents, are these:
backup/  
cache/      
ctracker/  
downloads/  
images/      
logs/      
rum/
blocks/  
config.php  
docs/      
files/      
pafiledb/

8.- Unpacked icy phoenix on my Hd. Downloaded from here:

9.- Copied all files but config.php (no folders, only files). Instrucctions tells that some items should be replaced, so I think folders need to be copied too.

10.- Copied all folders from icy phoenix package to my icy phoenix folder.
    some folders and files inside some folders  where replaced.

11.- Permissions applied as said at Readme

12.- copy convert .. .php to root icy phoenix folder.
The first time, It returned something like: [this directive could not be applied]
this was caused because the old config.php (the original from my version 1.2.0.27c) was not in the folder. Here you need to use your own config.php, not the one in the Icy2.0 package.

13.- launched it:
first line returned: ip_acronyms changed to UTF-8.
last line returned: ALTER TABLE ip_xs_news_xml CHANGE xml_speed xml_speed char(2) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '3'
ip_zebra changed to UTF-8.

This steps takes 2- or 3 minutes, in a db of 600 MB. Don't forget to wait for the last line.

14.- deleted conv ... .php from root icy phoenix fodler

15.- run install/database_update.php
Followed the instructions.
At the end, there was some errors on the SQL querys, I looked at them and there was no problem. Most of them were query's that creates columns that exists, or changed for values not found.

16.- All ok, with the errors commented above. Page shows: Your Icy Phoenix is version is up-to-date

17.- run install/install.php

The site was redirected to: http://www.domain.com/ip_root/login...nstall.php&sid="some data deleted by me"

Page showed by browser saids:

config.php could not be found.

Click here to install Icy Phoenix

18.- clicked and gone to the same place. same error.

founded that this error messages cames from common.php at line 166:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
require(IP_ROOT_PATH . 'config.' . PHP_EXT);

if(!defined('IP_INSTALLED') && !defined('IN_INSTALL'))
{
        die('<p>config.' . PHP_EXT . ' could not be found.</p><p><a href="' . IP_ROOT_PATH . 'install/install.' . PHP_EXT . '">Click here to install Icy Phoenix</a></p>');
        //header('Location: ' . IP_ROOT_PATH . 'install/install.' . PHP_EXT);
        exit;
}

at config.php the var definition is like this:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);

I think that here's the error, so i changed config.pho to:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
define('IP_INSTALLED', true);

and try again:
- the site redirected me to login page again but without errors. I saw the default login page. (the site wants to check if I am admin)
- I used my user and password (off course I am admin).
- the site redirected me to the wrong url : _install/install.php
- off course, I do not have any _install folder, so I changed the URL to: install/install.php

the result was that a message appeared in a apparently good working icy phoenix 2.0 that told me:

You are not authorized to view this page.

- clicked on Forum (at the nav bar) and it took me to: ../../forum.php
 (off course, forum.php is not there. The root folder is wrong )

- I corrected it to the right url, and everything seems to work OK.
- I reenable the site and I am moving around there to check if everything is ok.

Now everything seems ok.

I hope this can Help someone, and maybe the errors reported by me, could be solved!

You have to update to 1.3 first, then 2.0

1. That's not quite correct because IP's update procedure is supposed to step up from all previous public releases providing one selects the version they are upgrading from.

2. Version 1.3 is no longer publicly available, so that makes it more difficult to do it that way.

3. If the update process is buggy, then MG needs to follow up on the process of upgrading from earlier versions, and possibly document it better.

Hi, I found why I got the
'You are not authorized to view this page' message, in the last part of the upgrade. I am second admin, and only first Admin can do it.

Now I am doing the last part of Readme Upgrades from 1.3 to 2.0, running install/install.php to update database with uploaded files.

Here is asking me for search an String and replace it with another string, but I have no Idea of what I should write there to make the fix.

I have clicked the link for deleting all the old icy phoenix files, but the pages stopped. I hope this part of script is not deleting avatars or album images.

Thanks for sharing your procesure as well. I'll have a look and maybe review current instructions.

Unfortunately upgrading it's still not fully automated.
