compindustries Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Is it a good idea to turn off the forums when upgrading?If it is or is not, I think it would be beneficial to add this to the upgrade instructions.Anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.KX Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 It's not really recommended but it's a good idea to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Surfer Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I also recommend it and hope its added as a default feature of forum installer script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerryMc Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I wouldnt mind if they just got the install correct in the first place. This is supposed to have gone through rigorous testing, and people are having massive install problems, especially on the upgrade.Mine was ok till I upgraded the Gallery and then all hell broke loose.Anyone notice the spellchecker has also disappeared from Firefox, you used to be able to see it in Firefox 2 but its gone.

compindustries Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I must agree...my test installation and upgrade went flawlessly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon C Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Yes, it's a good idea to turn the forums offline when upgrading because no one is able to write to the database (e.g. posting, registering, editing on the board during the upgrade process) and reduces the risk of errors that may occur.

.KX Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I think the forums should automatically be turned off-line when upgrading. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
