    Cannot upgrade from 4.2.2 - too many errors

    I'm having a problem with upgrading from vB4.2.2 to 4.2.5, while moving to a new server (as my old one can't manage to do PHP 7).

    On the new server (Debian 9 and PHP 7.0) I have all the files version 4.2.5, and I have the database filled with a data dump from my old server (version 4.2.2)

    Now when I go the the page .../install/upgrade.php I get a whole list of 'Notice' warnings:

    Notice: Undefined variable: isie in /var/www/BWB/includes/class_core.php on line 2208
    Notice: Undefined variable: isie in /var/www/BWB/includes/class_core.php on line 2208
    Notice: Undefined index: query in /var/www/BWB/includes/class_core.php on line 2125
    Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_REFERER in /var/www/BWB/includes/class_core.php on line 2021

    Notice: Constant DEBUG already defined in /var/www/BWB/includes/class_core.php on line 3389

    and the little box below says:
    Upgrading to 4.2.5
    Press the button below to begin the upgrade
    from 4.2.2 to 4.2.5

    If I click to try the upgrade anyway, this happens:

    Unexpected Text:

    OK

    Upgrading to 4.2.5
    Status: Aborted

    I've done it three times now, so I know it's not just a passing glitch. At present my system says it's vB 4.2.3 Alpha 1, so something must have happened. But there is no documentation on how to get out of a situation like this, and I will be grateful for any suggestion.

    Sorry, I should have posted this question in "vBulletin 4 Installations and Upgrades". Can the moderator move it for me, please?
