Did you use fantastico? Because for free I upgrade forums from fantastico to the latest verison.

 

[BukYMast3R]

No...I just backuped my old forum...

 

[Chris S]

well heres what i can suggest, if you have a backup of your old forum with the members and posts and stuff. Install the version in fantasco. Get desertwar to upgrade it to the lastest version. Then import the database. That should work

--side note--

desertwar did you see my response to your question the the marketplace area?

The server has PHPSuExex enabled, so php/http processes run "as the username" of the user running the script. (For security reasons, kinda.)

If you chmod a file up past 755, you will get an HTTP 500 error. Maybe that's what you did?
