New Server/Upgrade from CiviCRM 2.1.4 and Joomla 1.5.6
August 10, 2009, 07:18:33 pm
I recently moved my site to a new server and I upgraded my Joomla from 1.5.6 to 1.5.14 and I attempted to upgrade CiviCRM from 2.1.4 to the most current version but I receive the following error after clicking on the" CiviCRM Database Upgrade Utility" link.

Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: Permission denied in /home/cdmadmin/public_html/BULLYPULPIT.COM/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/File.php on line 114
Error: Could not create directory: /home/bullypul.

If you have moved your database from a development install to a production install and the directory paths are different, please set the column config_backend in the civicrm_domain table to NULL. You will need to reinitialize your settings in the production install.

It seems like CiviCRM is attempting to create a directory in /home/bullypul but that is from the old server. How can I edit this? Am I missing something.

Thank you!

Apache: 2.2.11  MySQL:5.1.30  PHP:5.2.4  Perl: 5.8.8

Whenever you move your installation follow this documentation http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Moving+an+Existing+Installation+to+a+New+Server+or+Location.
And then go for upgrade.

OR do upgrade first, them move the installation and follow the document.

Error: Could not create directory: /home/bullypul.
Reason for error is that your old installation had some settings which doesn't fit/apply to the new place, you moving your installation.
Following "updateConfigBackend" solution from the document should fix this.

Can you please tell me where I would do the following. I have no idea?

# Create a link for the old server's root. You might need to create parent directories.

mkdir PARENT-DIRECTORIES-OF-OLD-SERVER-ROOT     # if needed
ls -s NEW-SERVER-ROOT OLD-SERVER-ROOT

# For example ...
#
# mkdir /home/USER
# ln -s /var/www/SITE /home/USER/public_html

I also tried to make this adjustment in my database but I don't know how to do it there either.

Hi,

1. if you able to access http://domain/civicrm/admin/setting/updateConfigBackend&reset=1 Url
     then change the Base directory Path

OR

2. If you have DB access then execute the following SQL,  Note: check your domain id
   
Code: [Select]
UPDATE civicrm_domain SET config_backend = NULL WHERE civicrm_domain.id =1 ;

Thank you for your help. It seems I'm making progress. The URL did not work I just received a blank screen. I ran the SQL and now when I go to the install window after clicking CiviCRM Database Upgrade Utility I get:

Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.

DB Error: no such field

Database Error Code: Unknown column 'civicrm_uf_match.domain_id' in 'where clause', 1054

this may have something with the note you made about the domain. Should I put something different there?

Please advise?

Hi,
Open the UFMatch.php file under civicrm/CRM/Core/BAO/   Directory

Refer previous post for Patch
Here
"-" and the "+" signs mean Delete this line and Add that line respectively. (around line no.182)


However, V 3.0.alpha2 has been released.(including this bug). Better way you can use it.

Did this version get released today? Would you suggest installing this update instead of adding the code?

please read this document

http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Moving+an+Existing+Installation+to+a+New+Server+or+Location

and follow ALL the steps. IN specific ensure you do step 10 if you are still getting the error. If things still dont work, set config_backend to null as suggested in the trouble shooting tips

thanx

In regard to step #4 can you please advise HOW to edit information in the MySQL database. I know nothing about this. What should I do?

Review the settings file(s) - and modify the following settings as needed:

    * CIVICRM_UF_DSN
    * CIVICRM_DSN
    * civicrm_root
    * CIVICRM_TEMPLATE_COMPILEDIR
    * CIVICRM_UF_BASEURL
