upgrade from 6.8 to 7.5 admin probs

tones · **upgrade from 6.8 to 7.5 admin probs -** 11-18-2004, 03:48 PM

I just upgraded from 6.8 to 7.5 and i have got everything working except from the fact that in the admin panel there are a few options that have an underscore before the name of it. for example there is:

_ADDSTORY
_EDITUSERS
_SECTIONSMANAGER

These are the only ones that do this and when i try to use each part i get the same mysql error message....

Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/strifex/public_html/main/includes/sql_layer.php on line 286
Access Denied

Hope you guys can help me again!

I believe it may have somethign to do with a language file, but may be completely wrong!

Quote:

The following folders do not require any changes:
blocks
db
images only requires uploading code.bg.jpg to the main images folder.
includes
language
themes

The following files require no changes:
backend.php
banners.php
config.php
header.php
index.php
robots.txt
ultramode.txt

The admin language file only requires a few lines added to the start of it right before:

Code:
define("_SEND","Send");

The New lines are:

Code:
define("_DOWNLOAD","Downloads");
define("_ENCYCLOPEDIA","Encyclopedia");
define("_FAQ","F.A.Q.");
define("_NEWS","News");
define("_REVIEWS","Reviews");
define("_ADMPOLLS","Survey / Polls");
define("_TOPICS","Topics");
define("_WEBLINKS","Web Links");

The following files must be deleted from the admin case, links and modules folder:
all files relating to content, faq, download, encyclopedia, links, polls, reviews, stories, topics and users.
The rest of the files in the case and links folders require no changes.

The following files are the only ones that need updating in the admin/modules folder:
authors.php
backup.php
forums.php
modules.php
newsletter.php
optimize.php

All module main files can remain as they are, the only change is that you will need to upload an admin folder into the following modules:
Content
Downloads
Encyclopedia
FAQ
News
Reviews
Surveys
Topics
Web_Links
Your_Account

The following file must be deleted:
auth.php

The upgrade74-75.php file must be run from the main directory (where mainfile.php and config.php are) and deleted once run. That's about it.
