Ok, a little more info before I get asked.

Ok, here is what I did.

1. Backed up my old DB
2. Created New DB
3. Imported OldDB into New DB
4. Uploaded 3.0.1 to a new folder, linking it to new DB (which is a copy of old DB)
5. Ran the Upgrade.php script, follwed all the steps till i got to Step 27, then it failed

Looks like A. you didnt upload the new files proerply or B your host does not have XML support.

**Lostnode** · Mon 19 Apr '04, 5:12pm

Ok, I wil try and upload again... check out http://www.kronos3.com/phpinfo.php and tell me if XML is enabled or disabled... it tells me XML extendions are in there...

And if XML is not included, what do I have to add to my php.ini file (I am my own hoser)

gie it a sec... rebooting. tried to use urpmi to install xml... didn;t work

I dont see the --with-xml tag in your configuration list

Update: Insalled PHP-XML... damn thing didn;t install in the first place... my bad

I've just run into this problem as well - what is this XML library needed for and why doesn't the install check for it rather than getting half-way and then crashing?

**DVD Plaza** · Sat 24 Apr '04, 4:29am

Hang on a minute, I DID compile PHP with the --with-xml though...

**DVD Plaza** · Sat 24 Apr '04, 4:39am

Okay this is weird - I specifically compiled with --with-xml yet phpinfo() doesn't list it. Is there something that could cancel thit out.. for instance I have the --disable-all and --enable-safe-mode on...

**DVD Plaza** · Sat 24 Apr '04, 4:55am

Recompiled without the --disable-all, refreshed the install page, and it's fine now - though phpinfo() still doesn't mention xml being there...

Back to the job of guessing which of the 200 upgrade pages require a "Next Step" click...

You need to restart Apache.

**DVD Plaza** · Sat 24 Apr '04, 4:47pm

Sorry I didn't think to mention that, yes I did restart Apache (via a full stop and start rather than just a graceful).

What's the link to phpinfo?

**DVD Plaza** · Sat 24 Apr '04, 8:25pm

The test server is running on my private LAN, I'll PM you the phpinfo results...
