What did I do:
Had a install of 1.4.11 running fine. Backed up the Database and copied over the 1.6.1 package files. The Upgrade was failing. I later realized the server was running PHP 4.xxx.
Updating PHP was not an option so I transferred my domain to another server running PHP 5.xxx - No problem
Now I want to install the 1.6.1 installation but my backup file is 1.4.11 and I know from experience restoring the database to 1.6.1 after a Fresh install of the MyBB software probably is going to be an issue.
I tried to find the a copy of the 1.4.11 installer files but I couldnt find an archive. My thought was to install 1.4.11 on the new server, restore database and try the upgrade again to 1.6.1
I would be grateful for your help!
Thanks for your time
