doing what??? Might help others if you post what YOU did..
Yes! Sorry I meant to include that. When I read through the 'includes/classes/class.zcPassword.php' patch posted earlier in the thread, I thought (and this is what I get for thinking) that it meant to comment out that line, but after going back and reading it another 100 times, I realized that I was meant to comment out that line and paste in the other line. Like I said, too much thinking gets me in trouble. I'm all upgraded and testing now. Thanks for all the help! :)
HI,
I am currently experiencing the same problem. it is no doubt related to the following line of code:
define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', '../includes/');
which is line 39 in:
zc_install/includes/modules/pages/database_upgrade/header_php.php
now, why this only fails on the the class.zcPassword class and not on other classes, well you got me.
not really sure why this would get redefined here.
I just did an install of 1.5.3 yesterday using the original download package adding the zip patch to be able to use the admin password of the databaase to be upgraded and did not have any problems with the upgrade the database aspect of the process. I do not know if there was a difference in the files of the original package plus the zip file and the current package. I did see as I was reconstructing the site that there was a plugin installed (master password) that modified some of the area discussed above.
This leads me to ask in relation to the attempted "upgrade" how vanilla is/was the install/upgrade on which difficulty has been found?
After reading all this thread I found I couldn't find a solution to the problem in ZC_install to upgrade my v151 db, to the current v153 ... I've done everything, from repatching the general.php function as suggested by DrByte in the thread, to wipe out completely the admin password and enter a single '1' ... using 'MQ==' a base64 encode in the db ... Nothing works, I am getting the same error,>>> ' Admin Password required to proceed with upgrade more info ... '
BTW here's my Info
Server Name host
cPanel Version 11.42.1 (build 24)
Apache version 2.2.23
PHP version 5.2.17
MySQL version 5.1.73-cll
Architecture i686
Operating system linux
Any ideas?
Should I wipeout the whole thing and start over?
Other than a recently identified paypal mod, if you have downloaded thelatest 1.5.3, the zc_install should present you with the ability to upgrade when that option is selected. Be sure that the username and password is the associated information from the old database. You said this was a vanilla install, correct?
ok I just RESET my Password created a new one and same thing .... :huh:
