Nothing more . right ? in new words need from there to upload each folder and file Right ? Many thanks for support . Edited May 1 by amd21
Marc Posted May 1 Posted May 1 No, you would be uploading files via FTP. Not via the admin CP. I have to be honest here and say I really really would advise getting someone to assist you with actually doing this if you are unsure, as you can break your site. It also may be worth at taking a look at our cloud solution rather than self hosted, if you are not sure on hosting of your site SeNioR- and amd21 2
teraßyte Posted May 1 Posted May 1 (edited) As Marc said, you have to upload those files via FTP to your server. Ignore that "Install Application" popup. It's not what you need right now. You use that only when you have a TAR file to install/update single applications. IPS doesn't provide individual TAR files for their applications. Edited May 1 by teraßyte SeNioR- and amd21 2
amd21 Posted May 2 Author Posted May 2 Thanks . I am thinking to do it firstly in test site and then process with the real one .
amd21 Posted May 2 Author Posted May 2 (edited) I checked the files of the live forum and i noticed that the application missing are in . Edited May 2 by amd21

Marc Posted May 2 Posted May 2 If you have uploaded everything and the files arent present but present in the zip, you havent uploaded everything
Gary Posted May 2 Posted May 2 5 hours ago, amd21 said: seem all files are in but doesnt been shown in site . You cannot see all of the applications listed under AdminCP -> Applications (under the heading Site Features)? If not, you have not uploaded all of the files and folders as Marc has said. You need to upload the entire contents of the `ips_xxxxx` folder (not the folder itself) to your forum main directory, overwriting files and folders when prompted and making sure all files transfer without error. You will then go to your site adding the following to your URL `/admin/upgrade` and login with your AdminCP credentials. The upgrade system will scan your install to confirm that all files are up to date before proceeding. Let us know how you go. If you still encounter issues, it may be best to consult someone from the Providers Directly to help you out, or you can get in touch with your hosting service. SeNioR- and amd21 2
amd21 Posted May 4 Author Posted May 4 Many thanks @Gary Ok understand . Is enough to upload the missing applications folders or need to upload whole package ?
Gary Posted May 4 Posted May 4 You're welcome. Unless you know exactly what files or folders are missing, I would upload the whole package again and overwrite any existing files and folders.

I can do this though ftp to replace all files but the question is if there is any risk in that process ?
Randy Calvert Posted May 5 Posted May 5 (edited) Uploading and replacing ALL files is the recommended way instead of trying to upload specific files. It ensures everything is updated and you don’t miss something accidentally or that there is a compatibility issue for specific files. So no… no risk. Just make sure you OVERWRITE all files. Don’t let it skip uploading files etc. Uploading files won’t make you lose content. All of your posts and settings are in the MySQL database. 🙂 Edited May 5 by Randy Calvert SeNioR- and Gary 2
Marc Posted May 6 Posted May 6 Pleas ensure you are doing a full backup of both files and database before you do this process. As mentioned a few times above, it may be advisable to get someone to assist you in doing this

As mentioned a few times above, it may be advisable to get someone to assist you in doing this I wont do anything to live site but to test first . Now in test site i created a second folder with invision files but when i changed the folder name show that need to make installation first again .... and ask also for a license key that is already be used with the other folder in first place installation . Can use test key for second time for the same domain but for a test folder ? I am testing if can create a second folder and just change the name ( rename existing to something else and new with the existing name ) in order to minimize the risk . Many thanks Edited May 8 by amd21
Marc Posted May 8 Posted May 8 You would use only one test key, and should indeed use a separate folder. Thats the intention of the test license key.

Marc Posted May 9 Posted May 9 Im not sure what you mean here by "If you want to do the same for live", as we are talking about making a copy for testing
amd21 Posted May 13 Author Posted May 13 Ι mean after all go well with test site if i could do the same for live site . That mean i could use license key for new folder installation . Many thanks
Marc Posted May 13 Posted May 13 If you want to use that same location for your live site, you can of course. You would just delete the test site first. Generally though, you would run your test in another location using your test key (this is your live key with -TESTINSTALL at the end)
amd21 Posted May 13 Author Posted May 13 I started the installation of a second folder of test site using the license key with TESTINTALL in the end . All went find till the database that i received the following message alhough all the input were right Access denied for user 'xxxx'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Marc Posted May 13 Posted May 13 You need to contact your host on that. Your database permissions are not correct for whatever details you are using
amd21 Posted November 8 Author Posted November 8 Hello to all . Still not manage to add the already payed applications ( blogs , gallery and others ) . We have upgrade to latest version of invision everything ok and still nothing . We see the files and database tables of missing applications but we also notice that are not written in the table core_applications Please check image . To revise exist files and tables , not showed in cp and in live forum and in core_applications missing . What should do ?
Jim M Posted November 8 Posted November 8 You would need to install these applications if you have uninstalled them or never used them. amd21 1
amd21 Posted November 8 Author Posted November 8 45 minutes ago, Jim M said: You would need to install these applications if you have uninstalled them or never used them. many thanks for reply but are already installed as showed in database and files . What you mean with install ? to manually put the files and create the table ? or there is this application separate and can be installed though manual upload though system-> site feature -> applications in cp ?
