I've managed to fix it, the upgrade process hadn't created the new DB tables.
So I use the command below to copy across the missing ones : elgggeocode_cache, elggprivate_settings, elggriver - I didnt bother copying over 'elggsystem_log_1236692081', as it was empty, now my upgraded DB has 22 tables, and the install works a treat..!
CREATE TABLE {upgraded DB name}.elgggeocode_cache SELECT * FROM {fresh elgg v1.5rc2 DB}.elgggeocode_cache;
Replace { and what is inside it with the name of your database.
Okay these are missing fields to install, correct?
Elgg database _________________
Database hostname (usually 'localhost') _______________
Database table prefix (usually 'elgg') _________________
Here is the jive I get inside Elgg 1.2 when I installed it from GoDaddy (soft install) I hoped to
use that info to fill in the missign fields whereby UPGRADING. And it seemed to work but it was buggy as hell and the version still said 1.2, so it seemed like a sort of crossgrade or something, hybrid 1.2-1.5 version.
I want to therefor only hard install 1.5 can I use the old Godaddy info below to still connect the database?
The full path to your site root on your disk, followed by a trailing slash:
/home/content/t/a/h/tahoebilly09/html/
The full path to the directory where uploaded files will be stored, followed by a trailing slash
/home/content/t/a/h/tahoebilly09/html/data/
Thank you anyone who might help with this, I really need to see that new river to stay pumped on th ethis project.

Post for anyone else that has had this problem.... check your path for your "data" folder... make sure it is the server path and not a URL - I was trying to point to the data folder using:
but I should have been using:
user/public_html/data
to point to the folder... cheers!
I might be having the same issue with setup on GoDaddy.com are you talking about the
Elgg database pointer?
The above is the path that I needed to use so that when I installed elgg i wouldn't get the message "data folder is not writable".
I made the mistake of trying to use a url instead of the local path to the data folder.

I just got 1.5 up on GoDaddy.com by installing the the GoDaddy ready 1.2 first, which sets up the dbase etc, then I manually upgraded the 1.5r1 files. It works but I the profile view never wants to load the plugs just keep spinning and the "report" window doesn't go away when you click on it.
Any help?
