OK, I'm back on the upgrade trail. I've saved my old htdocs & database off, opened the tarball, editted what I need...before I try the install script, I run the install/check.php script.
And it's getting this:
Warning: main(/usr/local/www/vhosts/southparkcity.com/geeklog-1.3.11/plugins/forum/functions.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/www/vhosts/southparkcity.com/htdocs/lib-common.php on line 6106
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/usr/local/www/vhosts/southparkcity.com/geeklog-1.3.11/plugins/forum/functions.inc' (include_path='/usr/local/www/vhosts/southparkcity.com/geeklog-1.3.11/system/pear/:.:') in /usr/local/www/vhosts/southparkcity.com/htdocs/lib-common.php on line 6106
My understanding is I'm not supposed to have any plugin files around at this point, so I'm quite puzzled...
Any advice much appreciated!

Are you doing an upgrade?
If so then you database has the installed plugins registered and yes, you would leave all previous installed plugins and related files in-place.

Actually I said u should do a fresh install with a new database. Once that is working properly, copy your plugins and upload your database data to the new install. create a new database and edit your config.php for it.
Normally, you would just upgrade your database but since you were having problems from last week, try doing a fresh install with new database.

Thank you, Blaine, I somehow thought I should copy all files over _after_ running the install script. Newb, ya' know.
Now I have another error message from the plugin-area in the check.php script, any ideas, anyone?
:

I'm on GL 1.3.8-1sr6, upgrading to 1.3.11. Forums is version 2.3. If that's incompatible with my 1.3.11 & this error is due to that, how do you handle that without losing the posts? Disable Forums, upgrade GL, upgrade Forums, then re-enable Forums?
Any thoughts & advice much appreciated!

Thanks, Vadertech, I hadn't seen your post before I hit "submit" just now on my reply. Yep, after Blaine's comment, I carefully re-read your earlier post & realized you did say copy the files, THEN run install.
Now that I know I'm making typical rookie mistakes, I'm still a bit more inclined to keep trying to update rather than go for a fresh (empty) install, as I want to learn how...knowing that I need to copy files _first_ hopefully will resolve anything updating rather than new database was causing.
If I go the route of installing a fresh copy against an empty database, how difficult is it to then move all the old data into the new?
Thanks again for all the help...

Yes keep trying and you will be an expert in no time. Everytime I upgrade, I have to fix some errors here and there. It's common.
very easy if you are using phpmyadmin but could take a long time if you have alot of data.

need to move lib-portalparts.php to your new geeklog-1.3.11/system folder. Also forum posts are stored in the database so you will not lose them as long as you have database data.
failed to open file means it is looking for a certain file that is not there. When you see this message just look for what file or directory it is complaining about and copy it over.

Thanks, that's all encouraging! Especially that we commonly find little things to fix.
And I do have phpmyadmin, so that's an option...I think I'll continue trying to update rather than wipe-all & transfer data, for now.
I'm going to copy the lib-portalparts.php file from where it does exist (./plugins/forum) to where check.php is complaining about (./system) and run it again.
I'm sure I'll have more questions, thanks again!

Woo-hoo!
I hit errors on the Forum's files in the professional layout, because I hadn't done a thing...so I copied those over...OK, now I know that having plugins means upgrades get "interesting"...and the install script worked!
I can hardly believe it.
I'm keeping the site down for the moment, I want a Smooth Blue that'll work with 1.3.11 & also need to remember how to put my own image into the header & small details like that...
But it worked!
Special thanks to Vadertech, Blaine, and Machinari, I couldn't have done it without you. No doubt you'll see a few more posts before I open 'er back up again.
Thanks again, all, when I set aside my rookie mistakes, the process actually wasn't too bad...which is kinda like saying, except for the abrupt ending, my falling off that balcony was pretty much OK...
