Problem upgrading from 1.2.4 -> 1.2.5

Post by conanjb »

Hi,

I'm running into a problem upgrading from 1.2.4 to 1.2.5.
I get the following:

Attempting to connect to database as admin BAD Does administrative user have access to the database? ( )

I've never had this issue in the past when I've done upgrades.
I've double checked my admin username and password (I'm able to log-in to my mantis installation with these).

Any suggestions or ideas?

I have Mantis running on a remote server running MySql 5.0.91.
MySQL
5.0.91-log
MySQL-AB JDBC Driver
mysql-connector-java-5.1.16

I'm running on OSX 10.6.7.

Thanks,
jb

did you exactly follow the steps described in chapter UPGRADING in file doc/INSTALL of your download?

Hmmh, quite strange.
1.2.5 introduced a bug during new installation, but upgrade should not be affected.
This bug will be fixed in next version (you could download a nightly build to check this)
You can also try to copy file admin/install.php from your old version 1.2.4 to your new 1.2.5 installation

I had deleted my 1.2.4 admin directory.
I used the latest 1.2.5 nightly build and I still get the same problem.
Maybe I'll just stick with 1.2.4 unless you have another idea to try.
