I'm finally getting around to upgrading from 1.11 (with the 1.13 updates) to 2.04. I copied all of the files and db tables to another account, both to keep it separate from my production installation and because I probably don't have enough disk space left to run simultaneous installations...
Anyway, everything looks to be running fine with the 1.11 "mirror" on the new setup, after changing the necessary paths and database info. However, when running install.cgi for the 2.04 upgrade, as outlined in the README file, I get pages and pages of errors saying the fileman images cannot be extracted because the /images directory cannot be made. The directory the upgrade is being installed into has been chmod 777. Shouldn't the install script create any necessary subdirectories with proper permissions from there? If not, that would require the person doing the installing to somehow know what directories to add beforehand, which wouldn't make much sense.
Also, the final error I get is:
As far as I can tell, there was no ConfigData.pm file in 1.11, not anything remotely close to it in name... Does this mean that the 2.04 upgrade/install directions need an intermediate upgrade from 1.x versions? I wouldn't think so based on the following lines from the UPGRADE file (seems to imply there is such a thing as a 1.x to 2.04 upgrade), but I'm not so sure:
Thanks,
Dan
