    Upgrading 4.5.2 to 4.6.1

    I’ve been following these steps:

    http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/install-and-setup/upgrading-an-umbraco-installation

    I created a backup of my site and database. Downloaded Umbraco 4.6.1 for .NET 4.0. Checked my configuration files for changes and then copied them over to my website.

    When I open the root of the website, the Umbraco installation wizard displays and at the Database step it only gives me the option to use a blank database or use a SQL CE 4 embedded database.

    I need to upgrade an existing site of an existing database.

    Any ideas of where I went wrong?

    Hi Jennifer,

    I made the same update today, but took the chance (chose blank db) and DB'en was just updated, not replaced.

    Everything seems to work

    Thanks Anders.

    I tried that and I get the message: Database connection initialisation failed.

    I'll see if I can figure out the answer to that one.  I'm pretty sure the connection string, username and password are correct - but I'll verify.

    Ok, looks like all I needed was to add a port number to the connection string.

    Now I get this error:

    Could not load type 'umbraco.Singleton`1' from assembly 'umbraco, Version=1.0.4029.25836, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

    I did a search on the error and I find this:

    http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/tea-commerce/tea-commerce-support/16278-Install-fails-on-Umbraco-461

    It suggests installing Tea Commerce. We did NOT previously have this installed on our 4.5.2 version of Umbraco and do not need an e-commerce solution.

    Is there a work-around?  If not, how do I install?

    Ok, with help from a friend, I discovered the problem was the Desktop Media Uploader that was installed in the previous version.

    I can login just fine, but now there's nothing showing in the Content tree.  Other sections such as Media and Users seems to be fine.  Any ideas?

    Hi Jennifer,

    Glad to hear :)

    I think you just need to Rebublish entire site

    The only option it gives me is to reload nodes.

    Thanks.  I ended up having to edit an entry in a table of the Database. It's working now! :)
