Hi Folks

I'm currently upgrading a forum from 1.6.10 to 1.8.12

Have just finished running the /install/ and most things seem to have upgraded OK 

However when I click on "plugins" in AdminCP - instead of the list of old plugins, I get the line below. (All plugins were deactivated before the upgrade was run)

How do I get around this?

/home/sites/bunnyboard.co.uk/public_html/forum/inc/languages/english/admin/gomobile.lang.php does not exist
That error points to a missing file. Further to that, it's obvious that you will have compatibility issues with your plugins. At the very least you will have to go change the compatibility line from 1.6* to 1.8* in each and every plugin file.
Thanks Ashley

What I can't understand is why myBB is looking for that file when all plugins are still disabled - I haven't enabled any of them since the upgrade?

Huh

Folks

This is now solved.

The file was in the "english" subdirectory, rather than the "english/admin" subdirectory where myBB was looking for it.

I moved the file and I can see my list of plugins again as normal.

Hope the above helps anyone else who may come across the same issue

Cheers

Sidenote ... gomobile is extremly outdated, and should not be used anymore.

Yep - quite a few of the old plugins from before the upgrade are no longer valid.

Unfortunately, there is no option to uninstall them - just a note in red:

This plugin is incompatible with MyBB 1.8.12

The thing is - I can delete the main plugin files from inc/plugins, but how am I supposed to recall whereabouts all the other files from each plugin are held so I can delete them too?

Cheers

I too am have upgraded to 1.8.12 (from 1.8.6) and can no longer log in as an admin account. I get the following error:

SQL Error:
1054 - Unknown column 'authsecret' in 'field list'
Query:
SELECT authsecret FROM mybb_adminoptions WHERE uid='1'

I have searched the forums and based on previous guidance performed a full upgrade file copy and upgrade again running the <myforum>/install/upgrade.php script. It appeared to complete properly but I still get this error. I don't see any logs besides my http ones that trace the upgrade status. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark

For those who may be searching, I have been able to solve this by renaming the "2fasecret" column to "authsecret". I don't know if anything else failed to update in the DB but my forum now has admin access. Be advised, I only tried this after backing up my DB and running the complete 1.8.12 upgrade.php multiple times following all of the documented steps.
