The installer could not find the required .SQL install file.

I am upgrading a zencart db from 1.2.0 to Current. Permissions are fine, db connection is fine, DB user has superuser privl'gs. But, when upgrading, (1.2.0 to 1.2.1 for ex) using the 1.3.2 zn_install tool, I get the following error:

mysql SQL Install file does not exist "mysql" more info...

I am using a fresh zip off sourceforge, and the following docs are in my zc_install dir:

convert_infopages_to_ezpages.sql        mysql_upgrade_zencart_121_to_122.sql
db_rebuild_autoincrement.sql            mysql_upgrade_zencart_122_to_123.sql
demo                                    mysql_upgrade_zencart_123_to_124.sql
includes                                mysql_upgrade_zencart_124_to_125.sql

mysql_upgrade_zencart_114_to_120.sql    techsupp.php
mysql_upgrade_zencart_120_to_121.sql    version.php

All looks good to me... Any suggestions??

Thanks!

Re: The installer could not find the required .SQL install file.

Were there any "warnings" on the System Inspection screen prior to going to the Database-Upgrade screen?

What is the link to your zc_install/techsupp.php ?

What is your PHP version?
Who is your host?

Re: The installer could not find the required .SQL install file.

I'm working off a local development server at the moment, running php 5.1 and mySQL 4.1, *nix environment. This is not a public server, so I can't give you access to the technical support briefing. No warnings on the system checks pre-upgrade. I do open source CMS development on this box daily, so I doubt my server is at fault.

No worries... I ended up just running all the sql scripts via command line

So much for finding out the cause so that others don't stumble with a similar situation in the future.

Not that it matters ... nobody has ever reported that problem before as far as I recall. So it doesn't look like the majority of commercial webservers are a problem. :P

Re: The installer could not find the required .SQL install file.

Try reloading the:
/zc_install

directory and all of its subdirectories and files ...

This may also mean that other files have problems if this fixes that error ...

Re: The installer could not find the required .SQL install file.

Hi.

No that's done nothing. Did you see my screenshot in the other post? Do I need to tick any of the boxes shown? I tried clicking the first and it said 'no mysql". I then tried ignoring any of the boxes and going straight to "done with updates" - and got this http://localhost/new_shop/index.php

I did everything you stated in your well-written guide to upgrade on \new_shop and can't see what I've done wrong.

Re: The installer could not find the required .SQL install file.

Just a quick note to let you know I ended up doing a fresh install for new_shop then copying and changing the name of the original database to "newshop" and then selected that through the fresh install. :thumbsup:
