Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
Just to clarify, should each file now be r1076?
I tried a few Google searches, but couldn’t answer this question.
If not, where do I find the list of each file’s current r-value?
Also, I just used WS_FTP to upload the textpattern folder with the new downloaded files/folders right over the existing textpattern folder on the server. Is that okay?

No, that’s not the case. As my example above shows.

I’ve just added an item to the FAQ

Usually you can overwrite your old files. However several people have reported that they had problems with some ftp-clients, where it wouldn’t overwrite all of them. Whether this was due to the client, the user, or some unrelated problem (e.g. the connections suddenly dropping etc.), I don’t know.

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
Crikey! Seventeen bad files out of 36.
Time for a better ftp client.
Sencer, you rock. I’m very impressed with this level of support.
As soon as I fix this, I will sing TxP’s praises as best I can.
I’ll even hit that PayPal donate button.

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
Still not working.
I’ve tried it several times, with different computers, different FTP clients, different Unzippers, and different downloads. Then, I even individually deleted the files that need to be updated, and individully uploaded them.
I’ve sent a message to DreamHost support….

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
pretty odd. Almost sounds like permission or ownership of the files had changed at some point. I wonder what support will answer.
So, do you have the new files uploaded now?

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
No, I’m stuck. Same errors, same behavior, same files.
…waiting to see what Dreamhost says.

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
- Do you have multiple textpattern installations?
- Is it possible that you are uploading into the wrong folder (one level too deep for example).
- Is the path set in config.php pointing exactly to the place where your textpattern is installed?
- And finally (sorry, I have to ask ;) ): Is it possible that files got mixed up locally on your harddisk; meaning that uploading works fine, but you are uploading the wrong set of files? You can check by opening the files in a text-editor and inspecting the revision number in there (it’s in the first couple of lines).

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem

Hmm. Dreamhost sets up a user (montgomerystudio), and then each domain (michaelmontgomery.net) is a separate folder therein. So I have one TxP install in each domain, yes. But each domain has its own database.
- Is it possible that you are uploading into the wrong folder (one level too deep for example).
I checked, but no.

Looks right to me. See config.php (except passwd) below.
- And finally (sorry, I have to ask ;) ): Is it possible that files got mixed up locally on your harddisk; meaning that uploading works fine, but you are uploading the wrong set of files?
Don’t be sorry, I’d never get offended by someone who’s just trying to help.
You can check by opening the files in a text-editor and inspecting the revision number in there (it’s in the first couple of lines).
Checked one or two (on both hard drive and server), and the revision number is correct on the former and wrong on the latter.
The site was working great with 4.0.1.
BTW, you’re working late!
<?php
$txpcfg[‘db’] = ‘montgomerynet2’;
$txpcfg[‘user’] = ‘montgomerynet2’;
$txpcfg[‘pass’] = ‘****’;
$txpcfg[‘host’] = ‘montgomerynet2.michaelmontgomery.net’;
$txpcfg[‘table_prefix’] = ‘txp_’;
$txpcfg[‘txpath’] = ‘/home/montgomerystudio/michaelmontgomery.net/textpattern’;
$txpcfg[‘dbcharset’] = ‘utf8’;
?>

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
Okay, I individually uploaded (again) the files with the wrong revision numbers. No idea why, but they all worked, and all the files in the high level diagnostic seem to have the right numbers now.
Good news — almost everything works: I can write articles again, etc.
Not so good news — all the site-design images (except maybe one) aren’t showing on the page: michaelmontgomery.net , and creating a thumbnail causes errors:
Warning: imagecreatetruecolor(): Invalid image dimensions in /home/.andalusia/montgomerystudio/michaelmontgomery.net/textpattern/lib/class.thumb.php on line 211
Warning: imagecopyresampled(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in /home/.andalusia/montgomerystudio/michaelmontgomery.net/textpattern/lib/class.thumb.php on line 212
I checked that the revision numbers of class.thumb.php match on the hard drive and the server: 884

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
For thumbnail creation, please check the for revision and hash of /include/txp_image.php as well.

I don’t understand what you are referring to exactly. Please be more specific.

Re: 4.0.2 upgrade problem
/include/txp_image.php revision number is 1042 on both the hard drive and server: $LastChangedRevision: 1042 $
As far as image performance goes, I’ve loaded all the images of the Ocada template into TxP. You can see them at: http://michaelmontgomery.net/images/17.gif and sequential up to 31.gif. In TxP, image ID#17 is bg.gif. The default css pulls in this background image: #E6EEEE url(/images/bg.gif) repeat-x; and the other images are also pulled in with the css.
The problem is that the images (header.gif, footer.gif and sidebar.gif for example) aren’t showing up on the page: http://michaelmontgomery.net/

http://michaelmontgomery.net/images/bg.gif doesn’t exist. You’ll need to change these URLs to the filenames used by Textpattern, e.g. url(/images/17.gif).
