Linux7 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Attempted to do an upgrade from 2.5.8 to 3.0.0 but during the install all I could choose was the "Install" new 3.0.0 version. I later just wiped out the db and 2.5.8 install and did a clean install of 3.0.0 and that went ok except under the "Check for Updates" section in the admin it now says: Your Version 3.0.0 Latest Version 2.5.8 Also had a strange ftp problem during the upgrade where a number of files were not being overwritten in directories with the newer files. (That's why I did a clean install.) On the new install all files copied correctly. I had tried bot the binary and auto settings in ws_ftp. Everything else so far seems to be working well... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Quick Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 thats because matt hasnt updated his pages. This isnt really a bug. it normally displays this once a new big release has come out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHMCS CEO Matt Posted January 30, 2007 WHMCS CEO Share Posted January 30, 2007 Yep, to answer the question about the latest version. Until the email announcement goes out this won't be changed. The official release date is 31/01/2007 and until then some changes may be made to the download as bugs are reported with the initial V3 full upgrades as this is the first release since Beta R2. We don't want the majority of users upgrading yet so that's why the latest version is not reflecting the latest download available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 So that means the version I installed wasn't the current final v3? Claimed it was in the client area and says so in the admin section. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS CEO Matt Posted January 30, 2007 WHMCS CEO Share Posted January 30, 2007 Yep, it is V3, but obviously, with any release, there may be problems initially. As you can see, four new bug reports today in this forum but none of them so far have turned out to be bugs so no changes yet. I was thinking more of bugs related to installing/upgrading rather than features. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linux7 Posted January 31, 2007 Author Share Posted January 31, 2007 My mistake, no bug just an oversight on my part from what I can remember. The reason for not being able to upgrade and only install v3 was that I accidentally read step 2 of the install instructions while reading the upgrade instructions. So I inadvertently renamed configuration.php.new to configuration.php before uploading to the server causing the upload of v3 to the server to wipe out the v2.5.8 configuration.php file already on the server. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
