is it possible that the problem would be
plugins classifads - quite an outdated version (that dirk wrote afaik), but - plugin vas disabled before upgade

my error log reads:

Fri May 27 14:27:31 2011 - 1054: Unknown column 'status' in 'field list'. SQL in question: SELECT status FROM gl_slo_users WHERE uid=2
pet 27 maj 2011 18:57:54 CEST - 1054: Unknown column 'header_tid' in 'where clause'. SQL in question: SELECT format, filename, title, language FROM gl_slo_syndication WHERE (header_tid = 'all'Wink

The SQL errors indicate that the intermediate upgrade step from 1.3.11 to 1.4.0 fails, although I'm not sure why. Did you try running the upgrade again after that failure (without a restore of the old db)?

I don't think it has anything to do with the Classifads plugin, especially if you disabled it.

bye, Dirk

tried milion of things ... allways i got an error of some kind
but this time i only get blank page ... with url filled with data sent to webpage

if the problem is not in plugin
it must be in slovenian language Razz

funny thing is that i sucesfuly upgraded geeklog in english language (same version to same version - on same server), just few days before this one
it had not clasifads installed


is there a way to 'manually' upgrade the database?
imho flatfiles are as good as they get, i can reupload them ... but ... imho its ok ...

I get once a language problem to upgrade. Since I always make upgrade with my admin language set to english? You might try this to see if it is a language issue.

this upgrade is killin me
upgrading from version
(1.3.11sr7)
mistake in my first post

and since i couldn't upgrade in any way
i started to convert the site to utf-8 (so i can easily upgrade it later)
following the instructions here
http://www.geeklog.net/article.php/200410120657418

all the characters that needed were replaced in editor
settins in config file and in slovenian_utf-8 and in slovenian were changed to utf-8
they look ok in all editors
they look ok in phpmyadmin

but on site they do not
not the ones from flatfiles or the ones from database ...

professional template gives me warning when i chooze/use slovenian_utf-8 language file for my user (i created utf-8 from normal slovenian file)

Text Formatted Code
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at ...snip.../language/slovenian_utf-8.php:1) in ...snip.../lib-common.php(998) : eval()'d code on line 1


classic that we use as default on this site gives 2 warnings but they dissapear before can read them - i notice them only when i change language file ...

Yes it is a good choise to convert to utf-8. Read some warning about pre 1.4.1 geeklog version. Maybe this can help.

@mysql_query ("SET NAMES 'utf8'", $this->_db);
Razz

looks like im still missing sumting at utf language files - hence the warning - will find apropriate editor and check

i do too
Razz

i tried several more: gedit, pspad, ... in all editors chars look ok
and as i said after your update they even show properly

the only trouble is in names of the week - chars are not yet displyed ok


... in menu they were misinterpreted too, but i changed header.php where they were hard encoded to utf and now its ok ...
must i change all the teplate files to utf encoding too?


ps
now i noticed the warning is gone
is it possible it was there couse of header.php not beeing in utf encoding?

You will need to create slovenian utf-8 language file for all plugins too (calandar, polls, links, staticpages, spamx, xmlsitemap).
