Finally, thanks for the effort!

No doubt I'm being daft, but what's the URL to download beta 3?

edit The github download I guess: snip ? Or does it get packaged up differently?

Nice one, thanks for the link. To anyone else, use that link, not the one from github I posted above (sorry, I can't edit it now).

Regarding the update - step 6:

Go to /utility/update (or to /index.php?p=/utility/update if that doesn't work)

That doesn't work for me when upgrading from a 2.0.18 forum. I've got everything in place (I think), but it does an immediate redirect to /index.php?p=/dashboard/setup (an http Location redirect if that is relevant at all). I've got debug enabled, but there is no content from the update page - it just does the redirect.

What would be causing that?

Thanks,
Allan

Got it now - what was tripping me up was that my config file didn't have the Installed flag. That dropped it into the installation screen instead of the upgrade which is fair enough! The reason I didn't have the installed flag was that I was getting an error using my old config file, so I cleaned out a bunch of stuff (too much in the end!). The specific line that was causing the error was:

$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['MasterView'] = 'error.master.php';

Removing that allows the upgrade to run.

It was me being daft; added the download link to my post.

A big thank you to @shadowdare and @peregrine for testing this release and filing bugs & pulls against it.

see version numbering if you don't understand.

Thanks for the effort. This would really help...

LucasKA

Installing on localhost gives me this.

PHP Version 5.4.24

hgtonight

@LucasKA That looks like an error related to MySQL being in strict mode. Vanilla does not support strict mode. I believe there is a patch out there that does it on github: https://github.com/vanillaforums/Garden/pull/1799

LucasKA

@hgtonight‌ Interesting, has this changed between 2.0.x and 2.1x ?

hgtonight

Not that i am aware of

LucasKA

Hmm, never had that issue on 2.0.x

That patch worked, should probably be merged if it passes other tests/etc

Ivan_Gurin

After upgrade to 2.1b3 I have revealed some bugs:

1.In user profile the Active text area toolbar is right justified and out of toolbar box.

Example:

2.In account option there are two dashboard links.

Example:

3.Doesn't work dashboard statistic. It doesn't show.

4.After change user data window doesn't close, but changed user data saved.

Thanks!

UnderDog

@Ivan_Gurin post them on gitHub please.

For every item a separate bug report. In the bug reports more info. 1) + 2) Is it default theme or other theme? Which one? 3) Statistics don't show. Any FireFox / FireBug / Chrome Javascript explorer details? 4) After change what user data? Step by Step please?

Linc

There was a Javascript error in the Dashboard in 2.1b3 that caused at least 6 bugs. I commented about it in this issue: https://github.com/vanillaforums/Garden/issues/1833
