I'm trying to upgrade from 3.0.3 to 3.0.5 (and avoid the nightmare of our upgrade from 2.7 to 3.0).

This is the error I got from running the upgrade.php script:

Quote:

Warning: gzuncompress() [function.gzuncompress]: data error in /home/www/irnextphase.tikatu.com/fudforum/upgrade.php on line 302
Archive did not pass the checksum test, it is corrupt!
If you've encountered this error it means that you've:
•downloaded a corrupt archive
•uploaded the archive to your server in ASCII and not BINARY mode
•your FTP Server/Decompression software/Operating System added un-needed cartrige return (' ') characters to the archive, resulting in archive corruption.

So, what does this mean and what can I do to fix it?

Also, what exactly do I need to change in GLOBALS.php and how do I do it?

Thanks in advance!

•uploaded the archive to your server in ASCII and not BINARY mode

This is probably the problem. Use FilleZilla and set the Transfer mode to binary and not Automatic or ASCII.

It happened to me also

Thanks for the answer! I goofed on the first try, but figured out what I did wrong--uploaded the wrong upgrade file. Embarassed

Now that I actually have 3.0.5 on my forum, I get this error message:

Quote:

$SERVER_TZ = 'America/New_York'; $DISABLED_REASON = 'Temporarily offline; please come back soon!'; $FUD_OPT_1 = 1737422397;

I have changed the timezone setting to America/New York (which is what it should be) but this error message still shows up after enabling the forum. What can I do to fix that?

ETA: Also, my categories are not showing up. All the forums are listed under "Public Forums".
