You must log in to post replies.Is my best option just to try upgrade again now, or should i attempt to fix this first?
If you have restored your database, I would get everything working first and then do the upgrade. Otherwise, you don't know whether the problem is caused by a bad database restore, the upgrade, or something else.
The 1.6.1 database requires 1.6.1 code just like the 1.7 database requires 1.7 code. If you copy the 1.6.1 code over the 1.7 code, you should see everything work.
thanks
I just relised when i restored the files and database i only restored public-html and not the elgg data files, im hoping now if i restore the elgg data if will go back to nrmal, then i will attempt to ugraded again but this time following your getting ready for 1.7 guide
