October 15, 200618 yr - Do not use this software on a public install. The software will expire after October 30, 2006 and may contain issues that prevent it from operating properly. Wait for the final series for your public boards.- If you wish to test the upgrade from 2.1.7 to 2.2 please do so on a copy of your database. Do not perform an upgrade on your live data. We will not be able to assist you if the upgrade fails.- You will be able to upgrade from 2.2 Public Beta 2 to 2.2 RC 1 when it is available.
October 15, 200618 yr Does this mean he's screwed?No, it means your reading comprehension skills need work.
October 16, 200618 yr uhhh.... can I downgrade?No you cant buddy they said not to use on a public board until RC1
October 16, 200618 yr And chances are RC1 will be out before the 30th so I think you're safe.RC1 cannot be put over Beta 2 one is encoded therefore can not be upgraded
October 16, 200618 yr RC1 cannot be put over Beta 2 one is encoded therefore can not be upgradedYes it can.
October 16, 200618 yr :( I REALLY hope it comes outbecause I've alreay re-done my forum onceSorry mate I think you will be doing it again, RC1 is uncoded and Beta 2 is coded and cannot be overwritten, hence the warning from IPS at the start of the Beta.
October 16, 200618 yr Don't listen to him!You will be able to upgrade from 2.2 Public Beta 2 to 2.2 RC 1 when it is available.
October 16, 200618 yr Sorry mate I think you will be doing it again, RC1 is uncoded and Beta 2 is coded and cannot be overwritten, hence the warning from IPS at the start of the Beta.I don't know where you learned computers from, but all you have to do is copy the new files over the beta files and they will be overwritten. Then just run the upgrade script and It will work fine, Just remember to not over write the global_config file and all will be fine. Encoding of the file only keep the code from be read in standard editor, the file can be copied over like any other file.
October 16, 200618 yr cool... so all of my topics and posts will stay?The topics and posts are in you database not the files of the board software.
