Thanks for rooting for me, Gary!

That procedure got me all the way through the v.3.0.9 upgrade script except that it couldn't run the consistency checker at the end. That didn't surprise me because the v.3.0.0 upgrade script couldn't do it either. But every time I've run the v.3.0.0 upgrade script, I've simply turned on the least-significant (0x0001) bit of FUD_OPT_1, set the ./forum/adm directory permissions to 0755 and then run the consistency check manually. That has worked every time.

As usual after an upgrade, I found the least-significant bit of FUD_OPT_1 off so I turned it on. That removes the internet-facing "doing maintenance" message and displays the threads. So after doing the upgrade, I looked at the internet-facing view of the forum and saw all the posts, but it was missing the categories. This is a symptom I regularly see after table manipulation, and running the consistency checker always seems to fix that.

But even after setting the ./forum/adm directory permissions to 755, I still couldn't login as "admin." So I ran the consistency checker from the command line. This fixed the categories problem, as I often see. The consistency checker isn't seeing anything wrong with the database. All the categories now display properly in the main thread view for an anonymous user. I just cannot login.

I think I'm going to call it an evening and look at this again tomorrow. I'm not going to backout the v.3.0.9 installation, because it may just need some massaging to repair.
