Hi there!

I uploaded the files from the changedfiles_1611 folder and when trying to go to gamermoments.net/install I got a white page. I turned on the error reporting for php and now it shows:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function my_strpos() in /customers/f/9/1/gamermoments.net/httpd.www/inc/class_error.php on line 206

You can take a look at the domain which is at http://gamermoments.net

What am I doing wrong?
re-upload ./inc/functions.php file
When I visit your forum I get a different error... Please ensure you have uploaded all MyBB files.

Thanks both of you for replying!

It seems there were a few files missing in my /inc folder. Not very strange since I just uploaded the inc folder from changedfiles_1611 and replaced my existing one. But that doesn't include all files needed, just the changed ones (it seems).

The upgrade instructions seem to imply that one shold upload and replace everything, but it rather seems each of the file in the folders should be uploaded and replace the existing. Upgrade instructions could me more clear about this I think.

Edit:

I'm still having trouble upgrading, though. Now it behaves as if I'm installing for the first time when i go to /install in the web browser.

Any ideas on how to fix this?
Rename plugins dir to plugins_bak

Then upload all files of entire pack of MyBB 1.6.11.

Now review you have not MyCodes with wrong mod codes, if so delete all of confict codes, the run upgrade proccess and have to go fine.

When you finish the proccess rename your plugins_ba to plugins again and thats all, make sure all plugins are working on latest MyBB version, your templates too and codes to works fine.

If you have a clean MyBB installation, then you haven´t troubles xD.

And not a fix, your forum won't goes fine because you mod the code in someway, if you don't touch nothing upgrade proccess goes fine for sure xD.

How do I do this?

I did try to upload everything again, but I got ”Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/customers/f/9/1/gamermoments.net/httpd.www/inc/db_.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /customers/f/9/1/gamermoments.net/httpd.www/install/upgrade.php on line 63”

I guess something is missing since I replaced things I shouldn't have.
Check your file permissions. They should be 775. I find when I upload things to cPanel hosts they default to 644 which has cause me many headaches.
