Can someone help me upgrade my older ipb version to latest version? I tried all ways to upgrade, including manual sql update but the files/sql are not compatible between v4.5.4.2 and latest version.

Beginning yesterday we began receiving the error: [[Template core/admin/global/globalTemplate is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]] However when attempting to navigate to our AdminCP page we also receive the same error and cannot attempt to restore the default theme. How do we get to AdminCP without a theme?

Hi, What kind of module is needed to send mails using PHP? I see: A test email could not be sent. Check the settings entered are correct or contact your hosting or SMTP provider for more information. preg_replace(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($replacement) of type array|string is deprecated I'm not able to use it like this. I'm the server owner. I'm using latest version (up-to-date), only one extension for topic thumbnails. In the support section - I see 0 issues (also 0 recommendations). My server is using Apache and PHP 8.1.30 currently. Maybe I'm missing some PHP module for that?

Hi all, Due to the EOL of CentOS, I am moving to a Ubuntu install. There may be some differences between the two platforms causing my issues. I use Plesk as a control panel for the server. I migrated one of my forums but it doesn't seem to work on the new system (after the data was migrated). Does anyone here have experience moving a site like this? Here's the error I get when accessing the site. I am using PHP 8.3.1.2. Also see the details from the ips4.php tool. It also doesn't look like my previous (CentOS) server had a constants.php file in the root. Help is appreciated. Thank you!

My site has been unresponsive for much of the last 24 hours. The CPU keeps going up to 100% and all my has said is the following, can someone help asap? The issue appears to be coming from the database "foxes_forums" as it makes queries that get stuck and cannot execute further. You need to review the database and fix the query that does not go trough. We can provide you with all the processes, however you would need to review and determine which is the one that gets stuck and causes the load.

Hoping someone can help me with this. I set up my forum several years ago, & everything worked totally fine. I never got a ton of traffic, but the forum itself worked fine. Now, the forum is basically gone. When I go to the url where the forum once lived, I now get a "Sorry! That page doesn't seem to exist." I haven't fallen behind on my billing (that I know of), or deleted it (that I know of), or anything else. If I had to guess, I'd point to two possible options: * I fell behind on upgrading the forum & basically ignored it for a long (since it seemed fine & I wasn't getting much activity.) Maybe that caused proble…

Hi everyone, I've been a dedicated user of Invision Community since 2011, and I've always appreciated how smoothly upgrades have gone in the past. However, the recent upgrade to version 4.7.18 has put me in a difficult situation. During the process, I received a message indicating that there are some problems with my database. The system suggests that while it is usually safe to fix these issues automatically, it may be preferable to run the necessary queries manually for larger communities. Unfortunately, the list of queries is extensive—when I copied them into a Word document, it spanned 70 pages. I attempted the automatic fix, but it failed. Running all …

Since applying the last patch, other users and I have appear to be having a problem with the private message feature. For example, when I am in an inbox and try to go to a specific page within a private message thread, the link does not work. Below is an example of a URL that will not work (recognize that a non-user cannot access this URL). https://www.billikens.com/forum/index.php?/messenger/7533/&page=5 Any guidance on how to troubleshoot/address this problem would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve

My server is rejecting emails because my forum is sending out too many emails because so many members are following topics. They have advised me to check settings in the ACP to see if there is a way to slow this down by maybe only sending that member 1 email a day instead of every time somebody posts? Is there a way to do that and how? Al;so is there a way to stop all members following content at once setting somewhere? I realize they can follow again but how to stop all for right now? Thanks

I've been stuck trying to upgrade past v4.6.12.1 for quite some time now. The update fails with this error: [removed image because it has potentially sensitive information] I'm trying to minimize down time so the board is currently up (reverted back to pre-update) but if you run the update you'll stall at the same point. Note: The board is currently running php7.4 for this old version of the script. The server has 8+ but it breaks the board if we try to run the board under it, so we are waiting to get past this first hurdle before moving the board to 8. Then we need to upgrade to the latest version of the script.

I just tried to update from 4.7.17 to 4.7.18 in multiple forums. All of them failed with the message „There was an error downloading the files to your server.“ As update only the full download is available which takes ages to upload and compare to the server. Is a version of the update available that includes only the changed files? Andreas

I initiated a forum update and was prompted to manually install some Redis and Store php files. I've done those manually, but it still says I need to update them and thus I'm stuck in the upgrade loop. These are the files, all of which I downloaded from the client area and replaced on-server. Ideas?
