phpMyFAQ

There's an answer to everything....and you have them all

thanks, Thorsten.

OK, thanks.

Also I notice something strange in the old 1.3 version..

The installer makes tables like 'faqchanges' and 'faqdata' etc. But the backup dump from this version describes the tables as 'kbasefaqchanges' or 'kbasefaqdata' .

??

Obviously a backup/dump would not import because the tables ...

This is just an offshoot question....

While doing the upgrading I decided to backup (download) the whole of the old script. This was a whopping 13.7mb!

Over 10mb of this total was made up of 'tracking files' in the data folder. Presumably these are a log of activity??

Can the tracking files be ...

Oh, I apologise Thorsten....sorry, I jumping to conclusions !

You're right, I didn't read the docs properly

Sorry!

Ok, I tried that...installed 1.6.12 no problem.

But when I try and import the dump (from 1.3.14) into phpMyAdmin, I get this error:


Error
SQL query:

# pmf: kbasefaqchanges kbasefaqnews kbasefaqrubrik kbasefaqvoting kbasefaqdata kbasefaqcomments kbasefaquser kbasefaqvisits
# DO NOT REMOVE THE ...

OK, I'll try that upgrade path.

Thank's Thorsten!

Can I import a database from an old 1.3 version of phpMyFaq into the new 2.0.10 version?

Or have all the tables changed?

How would I upgrade from 1.3 to a version with spam/captcha protection?

thanks

This is a bit of a problem, indeed. But isn't it more of a script problem than a host problem?

My host runs PHP as an Apache module, but this is the first script I've encountered where the upload file/attachment does not work. I have numerous others tested or working with file upload, including the ...

Thorsten,

OK, I decided to try the whole thing on a remote server. so I uploaded everything to my web space and installed. What do you know? the whole thing works as expected and much faster than on my local pc setup. Weird!

However, I cannot upload attachments. Whenever I try, I get the message An error ...

Oh dear, sadly another problem.

I read in another topic that the problem with slow operation might be because tracking was activated. So I went to my admin/configuration options and turned off tracking.

When I then viewed the main FAQ site again, all my categories and entries had disappeared :x ...

It's OK, Thorsten, I fixed it. I guessed there might be a corrupted file somewhere, so I just downloaded the script again and did a fresh install - everything worked fine.

I love the well thought-out interface of the script, and the ability of users to ask questions and view other peoples ...

Hi,

I've installed phpMyFAQ (version 1.39) on a local Win98 PC to test it. My setup is:

PHP 4.3.0
MySQL 3.23.54
Apache 1.3.27

I can see the main interface when I call /faq/index.php, although there is some code written over the top of the control panel which I don't think should be there.
