forum from admin panel

I upgraded 6.8 to 7.7, no patches of nuke, BB since orginally installed.
All seems well except going to the forums from admin.
I get a blank page.
Regular forum users get to the forums fine.

thanks

I patched it and now get this.

phpBB : Critical Error

Error creating new session

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1054 Unknown column 'session_admin' in 'field list'

INSERT INTO nuke_bbsessions (session_id, session_user_id, session_start, session_time, session_ip, session_page, session_logged_in, session_admin) VALUES ('3a711ff96965a14bde4d2085a4fab1e8', '1', '1115817086', '1115817086', '97c66410', '0', '0', '0')

I had the same problem.

open file modules/Forums/admin/pagestart.php

You have to put this code from the patch:

Code:




if (!$userdata['session_admin']) 


{ 


   $header_location = ( @preg_match('/Microsoft|WebSTAR|Xitami/', $_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE']) ) ? 'Refresh: 0; URL=' : 'Location: '; 


   header($header_location . '../../../' . append_sid("login.$phpEx?redirect=admin/&admin=1", true)); 


   exit; 


}

before this code:

Code:




*/ 


if ( empty($no_page_header) )

I put it between

*/

and
if ( empty($no_page_header) )

and get the same error like you.

Also the upgrade file included with the patch must be run.

Boy am I bad at this. lol
I loaded up the backup from a month ago.
I get access denied on admin section.
I cant get to anything from there.

Did you try what izone suggested before moving back and forth through versions? That is the worst thing you can do, files get mixed and messed.

Posted: Thu May 12, 2005 7:00 am

yes I tried it.
I saw what I did wrong with restoring the backup.
All is fine now.

Going to try again from 6.8 to 7.7 later on today.

The Access Denied message is due to some files that were dropped in 7.5 within the admin directory.
I tried to find the thread on it but failed, however if you search the early posts in the Nuke 7.5 forum you may find it.
