    [Suite] Problem upgrading from 3.8 to 4.2

    Hi all,

    I always get stalled by around step 38, and then the upgrading aborts completely.

    Here is what it tells me:

    Unexpected Text:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
    <error>Could not create file system directory to hold your attachment.</error>

    What to do??

    The attachment directory you specified in not world-readable and writable. You need to change the permissions to make it so.

      Thanks!!! That must be it. I'm going to try it.

      May I ask -
      Storage Type Attachments are currently being stored in the filesystem at

      Where in the admincp do I adjust this?? Mine is incorrect at the moment, since I've moved hosts.

        AdminCP->Attachments->Attachment Storage Type->Move Items to a Different Directory then type your current path in Attachment File Path make sure that its writable chmod 777
