Hi Greg,

First things to verify:

- Do you have a /data/packages folder. Are there any subfolders /created and/or /installed? If so, check next item

- Permissions settings ok on the umbraco folders? Lots of issues arise from upgrades where permissions are set incorrectly (due to several different reasons)

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

/Dirk

hey Dirk,

Thanks for that... There was originally no packages folder, but I recreated that before reading your post.  After reading your post I copied across the /created and /installed folders and files from another installation, and edited the files so that they're not listing any packages.

I also checked the permissions and all are fine.  I was hoping this would fix it, but still no go.  :(

Yaaaay I've fixed it... did a full Diff on my site against fresh Umbraco package folder, copied across a few files, cleaned up web config, and voila - all sorted.

Here's my full upgrade file copy list in case anybody else has the same problem (might save you doing a full diff yourself):

- /bin
- /install
- /umbraco
- /umbraco_client
- /App_Browsers (new folder)
- /config/splashes/NoNodes.aspx
- /config/splahes/worker.png (new file)
- /config/tinyMceConfig.config
- /config/umbracoSettings.config (then change error404 tag to xxxx - custom 404 page)
- /config/xsltExtensions.config
- /data/vistadb (new folder)
- /masterpages (new folder)

I'm not really sure which file/s in the above list caused this issue, but pretty sure something here is what fixed it. :)

hmmm... seems i can't mark the topic as 'solved' without ticking somebody else's answer - which is not exactly what was the solution to the problem.  can somebody else tick my answer, or can only the person who started the topic mark it as solved?

yup that'd be a good idea niels.

ps: u just got credited with solving this topic - well done ;)

is working on a reply...
