    Hi,

    I tried to upgrade from 0.8.2 to 0.9.0rc1. When I start the upgrade.php script everything seems to work fine. The database connection is o.k., I made all the required changes to config-dist.php. However, the new tables are not being created (although the config.php script is).
    What might be a reason for that?

    Mat

      What database are you using?  Did you save the changed config-dist.php
      as config.php?

      Database: MySQL Distrib 3.23.51, for pc-linux-gnu (i586)

      phpbt 0.8.2 works fine with this database.

      I tried two ways to upgrade:
      1. config.php (666, user root): call upgrade.php. The new values were added to the config.php.
      2. config.php (644, user root): call upgrade.php. Apache runs as user nobody. Script cannot change config.php. Therefore, saved it locally and retransferred it to the server.

      No database changes in either case :-(

      Stupid me.

      I forgot to remove the  {} for the config.php variables (i.e I wrote '{mysql}' instead of 'mysql').

      The upgrade worked perfect. Thank you.
