        So, in order to upgrade (patch) you have to basically reinstall the whole vb5 and relink the database...

          Hello,

          The upgrading procedure is not the same as the installation procedure.
          To do a minor upgrade (5.1.x to 5.1.y) you just overwrite the old files with the new ones and run the upgrade wizard.
          And this is it.


          Kind regards,
          George.

            When I try to update the site from 5.1.5 to 5.1.7 all I get is a white screen. It wont run the update script and I am forced to restore the backup back to 5.1.5... :/

              Then you are receiving a PHP error for some reason. What version of PHP are you using?

                  Please, enable debug mode on your site. Follow these instructions.

                  1. Open your /config.php file and find the following line:
                  Code:
                  $config['debug'] = false;
                  2. Change this line to:
                  Code:
                  $config['debug'] = true;
                  3. Save the file and upload it to your server.

                  4. Open the /core/includes/config.php file and find the following line:
                  Code:
                  // $config['Misc']['debug'] = true;
                  5. Change it to:
                  Code:
                  $config['Misc']['debug'] = true;
                  6. Save and upload the file to your server.

                  Reload the page you had the error on.
