RavenNuke 2.50.00 - New Installation on sub-domain:

I will be upgrading from RavenNuke 2.40.01, so I can maintain all current settings. This way my site wont be interfered with.

I have not had time to start the conversion. I downloaded RavenNuke 2.50.00 here: http://www.ravenphpscripts.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=27#cat

Once I have converted and tested RavenNuke 2.50.00, I will post.

Thanks.

If you haven't made a lot of mods to existing core provided scripts, this upgrade will be a piece of cake.

What I like to do, instead of the sub-domain approach, is actually have a fully functional running copy of my production site locally on my PC using either LAMP or WAMP package. I've used XAMPP for many years for this purpose as well as for development.

Good luck!

Will tegonuke be inoperative on a sub domain ?

Thank you. montego!

Upgrades within phpNuke, RavenNuke, NukeC, and phpBB have always proven to be stable on a sub-domain, if I follow the install instructions.

Checking the minimum requirements before upgrading is very important. My server generally meets them.

In the pass I had cookie problems. My install had problems across the board. Why? I installed on a sub-domain, but the configurations I set during the install, was for a domain. Some of the problems are listed here: http://trickedoutnews.com/ftopict-92-.html

Also, you just prolonge my installation of RavenNuke 2.50.00, because I want to learn something new, like LAMP, WAMP and XAMPP.

Research is on!

Thanks again.

Hi! nextgen

Yes, my RavenNuke 2.50.00 installation will be on a sub-domain, and tegonuke will follow.

Ok.

I'm not understanding the references to "tegonuke" separately from "RavenNuke". TegoNuke(tm) is my personal trademark for my modules, hacks, etc. and many of these are just embedded right into the core of RN, so not really a separate installation.

I downloaded XAMPP from: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html and 7zip from: http://www.7-zip.org/
XAMPP is amazing. The more I learn about XAMPP, the more I will be able to run a fully functional site locally.

At this point I have no idea what is going on. I am playing with phpMyAdmin, by creating and deleting database, importing and exporting database. It looks and feels the same as my web server. Local is nice!

I clearly understand where all my databases come from in my web server phpMyAdmin CP, but not XAMPP phpMyAdmin CP. I want to know what database can be deleted. I am assuming the ones I have underline can be deleted.

Database
•cdcol
•information_schema
•mysql
•performance_schema
•phpmyadmin
•test
•webauth

Once I have grasp XAMPP, I will begin upgrading from RavenNuke 2.40.01 to 2.50.00

I made great progress today. I completely solved all the problems I had since installing XAMPP. I finally tested a fully functional site locally.

Problem 1:
Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Problem 2:

Problem 3:

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

I will give myself another day or two, to become more familiar with what I have learned so far from using XAMPP, and then I will do a local install of RavenNuke 2.50.00.

The local install of RavenNuke 2.50.00 is coming along well, but is unlike phpBB 3.0.10 - Standalone Installation, which was a lot simpler to install locally and function fully, with few changes to phpMyAdmin databases.

RavenNuke requires more configuration changes to the database to accommodate XAMPP environment.

Everything seems fine so far, except I cannot sign into the Admin CP, and the 10 most popular ads in NukeC doesn't show up when I click the Most Popular icon.

In any case, I am enjoying this experience.

Bobby, I'm stumped.

Most Popular icon works after copying head-NukeC.php into includes\addons folder. Users can sign in, but not admin. I think I made all the necessary changes needed in the database. I am wondering what file or folder did I forget to move over into XAMPP.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I just tested the admin side and it seemed to work fine. This is a very old module that needs to be replaced with a more up to date classifieds system.

Bobby, are you saying that NukeC 3.7.5 is preventing me from logging into RavenNuke 2.50.00 Admin CP?

This is the only problem I see right now.

I'm saying that I am not having that problem. I can log in to admin and the nukec admin also seems to work fine.
