Hi @Ricardo Torrent

We did get your email but our reply may not have reached you. 🙂 Looks like you will need to upgrade your PHP to version 7.4 to complete the upgrade for your site.

I hope that sets you on the right path.

Olivia,
Thank you, I had to downgrade from 7.4 to 5.4 to get my backup running, so I thought it might not work again if I upgraded to 7.4.  I was wrong, just upgraded to 7.4 and my forum still runs.  Will perform a manual update now. 

Thank you for your time.
 

Hello again.
I managed to get my backup running, and after a couple minor adjustments I've "fixed" a couple details. However, it won't allow me to update.

I've tried to reach support from the adminCP but not sure if they get my messages as I don't get any replies.
 

I'm running CentOS 7 and downgraded first to PHP 5.4 and after the first error message upgraded to PHP 5.6

Now this is the error message when trying to update.

1C287 / 2 You are running PHP version 5.5.5-10.5.9-MariaDB. You need PHP 5.3.0 or higher. Contact your hosting provider or system administrator and ask them to update.


I also noticed I can't upload files to the gallery, folder permissions are OK, even tried with 777 but no luck.

What version is installed?
I've had problems like these in old version, my case it was the php version.

I use cpanel, so it's simple for me to make this change, if it's not something complicated for you try this.

Test 7.0 to 7.4 php

Currently 7.4.21

I will try other versions and post, thx.

I’m redirected to the new site every time I click in any link. Check the path on conf_global.php.

Yes, I was not intending to use the old version as published, just store it meanwhile.
I have changed the path now, just for testing.

It seems ok to me:

 

EDIT: It’s a clean install. 

Yes, that's the latest version install.  I copied the old one here:

Hello everyone,

I am trying to get online an old board, I have the database and files, my license is active and pointing to the right address, but when I try to access it, it shows an unformatted site and I can't login or do anything.

I tried to install the same version from scratch, says everything is compatible, installs OK but it shows the same problem, and if I install the latest version it works ok, but of course my content is not there.

the version of my old backup is ips_9719f

My backup was setup in spanish, so when I load it, I get the unformatted webiste in spanish, and if I install from scratch, the same page but in english.
