Your database appears to need patching to a higher level.

I will give this all a good read and a test once I get some projects out of my hair ( opps...no hair ).

I want all the good programmers involved to know how much I do appreciate their work and how much I like Zen cart. I am just currently frustrated by an upgrade !

Which means I am patched, yes?

Addendum - Interestingly, my BACK END Admin in my ZEN CART says everything is normal and everything is up to date.

Yet Homepage says: Down for maintenance - Update Database.

Is this simply a message I can switch off somewhere?

admin panel/ configuration/ website maintenance/ Down for Maintenance: ON/OFF

admin panel/ configuration/ website maintenance/ Down for Maintenance: ON/OFF

Nope -- set as FALSE.

Backend reports all normal, all patched and on-line.

Cleared browser cache a couple of times as well.

Will happily give you an admin account to poke around.

Thanks!

I sent you a PM,

After doing the database-upgrade via zc_install, you need to go into your admin area and remove-and-reinstall all your payment and shipping modules. This is documented in the upgrade instructions in the /docs/ folder of the Zen Cart files. After you've done that, you can turn off the down-for-maintenance by going to Admin->Configuration->Website Maintenance and setting Down For Maintenance to False.

Yes - did that too. :-)

I love a good Zen Cart challenge.

Look like you have not upgraded the files properly..

When I go to tools/ template selection and switch back to classic contemporary green I get the same page... NOT GOOD

You need to retrace your paths on the upgrade process.. Sorry

Looks like your /admin/includes/configure.php is pointing to a different set of database credentials than your /includes/configure.php is.
They need to have the SAME settings for all the DB_xxxxxx parameters, else they're showing you completely different data.

And, remember, if the configure.php file is read-only, you won't be able to upload/edit it without making it writable first.
