Works fine after rebuilding. Thanks for your help.

I modified rules to earn 1 point for each content and I launched the rebuild (in progress). I'm waiting to complete the rebuild to see if the ranks are updated. I'll update this post. Thanks for your help.

Hi, I migrated IPB from 4.2.5 to latest 4.7.14 and I try to import my ranks configuration to my new IPB. On 4.2, ranks are configured by number of content items (posts, comments) but on the last version it's by number of point. There is a tip to switch on "by number content" metric instead of "by number of point" to approve rank to a member ? For the moment, all of my members are newbies rank and lost their rank. Thank you.

Great. Thanks a lot for your help.

Yes, it's works when I disable it. Do I need to reactivate ?

Hello, I migrated my old IPB to the latest version. Everything was working perfectly until I changed a parameter and now the site has a 500 error. The parameters I modified are on Advanced Configuration. I see an error on "Template disk cache path" : So, I modified with my new directory after migration. I also added the cron indicated on Advanced configuration to my crontab. The error disappeared but, since this modification, my IPB forum is down with error 500. When I switch to Offline mode, the users can see the maintenance message, that's all. I have no errors logs. I try to put the old value to Template disk cache path but, forum is down. I don't know what is my mistake but all working fine before this manipulations. I check, my uploads directory is with chmod 777, like datastore. Thanks for your help.

Got it. @Jim M and @Randy Calvert you're right, it was mod_rewrite. I did two actions to URLs work finally : I modify, in httpd.conf, the AllowOverride directive from "None" to "All" . . . <Directory /var/www/html> . . . # # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files. # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords: # Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit # AllowOverride All . . . </Directory> . . . I create a .htaccess file on my Apache Document Root (/var/www/html) and I add this line RewriteEngine On I restarted Apache service and all works fine now. There is the link which help me : How To Set Up mod_rewrite for Apache on CentOS 7 | DigitalOcean Thanks a lot all guys for your precious help. I can now move forward for my migration.

Yes, I'm sure. The software is installed on /var/www/html/forum_ips My .htaccess file is in root folder of community : /var/www/html/forum_ips/.htaccess The mod_rewrite seems to be good : [root@srv www]# httpd -M | grep rewrite rewrite_module (shared) I checked the Apache logs, there is no error. I continue to search

Yes, I confirm, mod_rewrite is enabled. I'm surprised if it's my Apache configuration or server. But for the warning message about .htaccess, it's normal ? The rewriting does not seem to be working. This may be because you have not uploaded the .htaccess file, but may be a false error if your community is not generally accessible. Check friendly URLs are working, and if they are not, ensure you have uploaded the .htaccess file correctly or contact technical support for assistance.

I do it, I replaced the .htaccess with the .htaccess file downloaded from ACP but still "Not found" page when I click on URLs. I put the .htacess on my IPB folder : /var/www/html/forum/.htaccess There is the .htaccess downloaded from ACP <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /forum_ips/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule \.(js|css|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|map|webp)(\?|$) /forum_ips/404error.php [L,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /forum_ips/index.php [L] </IfModule> EDIT : I see an warning message on ACP :

Done. But links still don't work. I still have "Not found" page. Actually, my test site is http://my_ip_address/forum_ips. There is a problem ? There is any hard link on DB may be ?

No, I didn't uploed a new .htaccess, I use the old .htaccess. I need to create a new file ? I don't see any specific conf but may be I wrong : <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>

Yes, I modified my conf_global.php with the new URL (my test URL actually). I cleared the system cache but same result.

The upgrade completed after modify MySQL engine to InnoDB for several tables, thank you for the tip. I access AdminCP and forum. But for the forum, all links are broken, because I'll use a new domain name for the migration. There is a hard link in DB I need to modify with my new domain name ?

Some tables are on MyISAM engine, I'm migrating this tables, it takes some time. For the row format, all tables are DYNAMIC. I'll let you know as soon as I finish. Thanks
