Problems after upgrade from 2.2RC2a to 2.3.1

[bassmaga]

I have a shop with many contributions. I upgraded 2.2RC2a step by step to 2.3 and then from 2.3 to 2.3.1.

 

It seems to work ok (its no error in mysql).

 

First problem:

I don't have boxes. After upgrade I didn't have link to modules.php in admin>modules. When I insert it to admin/includes/boxes/modules.php I could make some changes but no results.

Set php errors on to find problems.

Add your shop for debug http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/7705

 

remove and add boxes again.

Thanks for your replay

 

I turn on the debug tools and have many errors. All boxes have error like this:

 

Error Type: [E_NOTICE] Constant MODULE_BOXES_WHATS_NEW_CONTENT_PLACEMENT already defined
On line 113
File includes/application_top.php
-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Date / Time: 03-10-2011 15:20:13
Error Type: [E_NOTICE] Constant MODULE_BOXES_WHATS_NEW_SORT_ORDER already defined

File includes/application_top.php

 

and one error in this file

 

Error Type: [E_NOTICE] Constant JQUERY_DATEPICKER_I18N_CODE already defined
On line 43
File includes/template_top.php

 

Any ideas why boxes doesn't start?

Maybe problems are in column_left.php, column_right.php becouse I have installed column controler for 2.2RC2a

Kamil,

 

Although the upgrade path to v2.3.1 from RC2a is written in detail for the CORE code, there is not upgrade path(s) for the contributions.

 

Obviously, because v2.3.1 allows for the control of the column boxes from admin, you will need to remove the contribution Column Controller as it is conflicting with the new code for 2.3.1

Hi Chris,

 

Thanks for your help. I removed Column Controller and still don't have boxes.

 

I wonder why after upgrade i didn't have possibly adding some boxes in admin panel, maybe this upgrade guide is not complete?

Kamil,

 

Personally, I never upgrade versions I ALWAYS create a new website because I find upgraded sites become unstable.

This is a good solution for new stores, but I have a shop based on 2.2rc2a. It has many modifications and that is a problem when creating from the beginning. I suspect the transfer of the database from the old store to new also be a problem.

 

I think that I insert column right and left like was in 2.2

Thanks for your time. While I was doing upgrade I made a mistake. I copied new files from osc 2.3 instead of copy from Upgrade Guide. I found that files are diffrent.
