Bitweaver upgrade - fatal error

Not able to upgrade bitweaver from 1.3.x to 2.5.

Followed the upgrade procedure but get the following error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined method BitSystem::registerUpgrade() in /var/apache2/htdocs/bitweaver/kernel/admin/upgrade_inc.php on line 472

And line 472 in upgrade_inc.php is :

if( isset( $upgrades$gUpgradeFrom$gUpgradeTo ) ) {
$gBitSystem->registerUpgrade( KERNEL_PKG_NAME, $upgrades$gUpgradeFrom$gUpgradeTo );

Please help how to fix this .

Thanks in Advance,
dh

Unless I'm mistaken the upgrade process has to be incremental; i.e., 1.3>2.0, then 2.0>2.1, finally 2.1>2.5

Unless you're like me. I'd never taken my site live, so all I did was nuke MySql database and install 2.5 as a new bitweaver installation.

Worked a treat.

Thanks Bobby.

I was able to upgrade from 1.3 to 2.0 but the final output is follows:

The upgrade process went fiine.

Thanks In Advance,

Looks to me like the content format (wiki, html etc.) the page was submitted in is not allowed anymore. Check if your content format is active in Admin > Liberty > Format.

Hi,

Where to look for Admin > Liberty > Format to check if the content format is active or not?

Help please,

Thanks,
Dh

Sorry, the correct path is Administration > Liberty > Plugins > Format where "Format" is one of the tabs:

yourbitweaver/liberty/admin/plugins.php

From 2.1 to 2.5 I get the follwoing errors.

Fatal error: Call to undefined method BitSystem::registerUpgrade() in /var/apache2/htdocs/bitweaver/kernel/admin/upgrade_inc.php on line 472
2.5.0
Fatal error: Call to a member function fetchRow() on a non-object in /var/apache2/htdocs/bitweaver/users/BitPermUser.php on line 832

I copy the storage,temp and config_inc_php files from the previous
version to the latest with the required permissions.

I have no clue how to fix this,please guide me.

If it wasn't the format, it might be the theme you're using. Not compatible or not been updated. Try to set another theme, like "cascader" or "basic".

If you can't access the admin screen, change the value directly in your database:

table: kernel_config
config_name: style
config_value: cascader|basic|…

Hi,

I did make changes to the kernel_config table has suggested by you and reinintiated the install.Still the blank page.

Im pasting the bitweaver settings check for your reference and sorry for pasting the huge amount of text. I have no clue, what needs to be done to get this working.
