I had a mybb forum months ago and had a back up of that..

Now i made a new mybb forum but when i imported the back up of that forum version, my site started showing an error :

"MyBB has experienced an internal error and cannot continue.

Error Type:
MyBB Error (42)
Error Message:
Your board has not yet been upgraded. Please do so before attempting to browse it."

Please help me Sad

Thanks
The error shows that you've uploaded the files from the new version Package of MyBB on your Previous version MyBB files, but didn't yet run the upgrader.

To upgrade just go to: http://www.yourdomain.com/install/upgrade.php and follow the instructions.

You'll need to delete the file called 'lock' from the install folder first though.

For more information on how to "Upgrade", just follow the points on this wiki page: http://wiki.mybb.com/index.php/Upgrading

Hope this helps,
regards,

But there arent any older version files in it other than the backup i made from the old version of forum..so still i need to upgrade?
Yes i suggest you to upgrade with latest package of MyBB.
I think this solves the issue.
