Question

Hi,

I used the auto upgrade from Cairo to Dakar, and my pages have gone corrupted after the upgrade. I was looking forward to finally providing WYSIWYG support for those less technically inclined in my co.

The sidebar and masthead have all gone to the bottom. The page toolbar (edit, wysiwig etc) has been compressed on the top right corner with not spacing instead of being on the top left.

I've tried a manual fresh install, and it was OK. So I deduced it might be some config file that got corrupted on the way. I didn't know which, but I first suspected the stuff in the twiki/templates dir. So I began a process of elimination by

1. 'mv templates templates_org' 2. ln -s /fresh_install_twiki/templates /auto_upgraded_twiki/templates

... it didn't work. I continued to the the same for 'data, pub, lib, tools, bin' ... and the webpages are still corrupted!

Basically, I've more or less pointed all the TWiki program files to the fresh install and the pages are still corrupted. What's going on? Please help! I've spent the whole day at this already.

Other attempts I tried:

1. Manual upgrade - copied the data & pub dir over to the fresh install - Access control screwed up. Can't register anymore.

configure has NO errors. The corrupted page and configure are attached.

Thanks in advance for the help.

BR,

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

sorry for missing this support request Durian - what you refer to as corruption, is actually just that your browser is not applying the pattern skin css properly. The easiest way to find out whats going on, is to look at the apache's error log file - more than likely it will tell you that it cannot find the layout.css file - but it will tell you where in pub it expects to find it, and thus you will be abe to see if the files are missing, or the permissions are causing issues... There is also a very good upgrade guide written by Kenneth - *** where is it*****
