Updating from 7.6 to 7.9

[Danp]

As I have not upgraded before and I cant find anything to talk me through I thought I would ask for the way to do this? My header says "Your Version 7.6.1031.1800, Latest Version 7.9"

Download the HAP+ Update ZIP instead of the Full, extract the contents, overwrite all. It will update any files that have changed. It is cumulative so don't worry if you've missed a few updates

[Danp]

Thanks Nick

 

Now I am getting 'The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.' after login

[nickbro]

Can you log onto the server and access the page, it should provide more information

[Danp]

 

Thanks Nick

[nickbro]

Remove that line from the web.config file

[Danp]

Thanks again Nick, now this though

 

[nickbro]

Can you try the attached dll

[Danp]

Just in the root of wwwroot\hap?

[nickbro]

to the ~/bin folder

[Danp]

Done and I am in, thank you.

 

Now says 'Your Version 7.8.1211.1640, Latest Version 7.9'

[nickbro]

Odd, seems that some of the updates haven't gone in, can you download the full download and extract the bin folder please

[Danp]

My bad, I was still working from an old update folder, downloaded again just now and its working apart from the images are not loading.

[nickbro]

check the ~/images folder's web.config file, make sure it have

[Danp]

Yes it does

[nickbro]

How odd. In a browser, can you navigate to /hap/images/haplogo.png and see what happens. Also try a CTRL+F5

[Danp]

Yes but then it goes when I Ctrl + F5

[nickbro]

odd, does it give you an error message or anything after the CTRL+F5

[Danp]

Nope, in IE9 I get a box with a red cross, thats all

 

FF10 gives me

The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.

[nickbro]

Ok, I'm really confused as to why this is happening :-(

[Danp]

No worries, I completely appreciate your work and your help

[Danp]

Sorted.

 

I had to remove this line again

[nickbro]

Some systems need that line, some don't
