Upgrading Home Access 8.7 to V9.0

[nyates]

Hi,

I have made a backup of my HAP folder under wwwroot, I need to upgrade to the latest version of Home Access Plus but I see that as I am on version 8.7 then first step would be version 9.

I deleted all other than app_data folder and replace with V9.

I know get this page when trying to log on.

Ok, it's an issue with the upgrade there, you will need to rename hapConfig.xml to something else, create a new config using the setup page. Sorry, I was never able to find the cause of this upgrade error
