Hi, I've tried every possible way to upgrade VM2.0.18 to 2.0.20 with the Joomla installer (using tmp, root and other folders) and I just keep getting An Error Has Occurred - Copy Failed message. I've followed several suggestions in the forum but still no joy. My host refuses to increase the max-file-uploads setting which is probably causing the problem as I don't have problems with instaling other components, modules and plugins. So I FTP'd all the VM files, but what about the database - I am getting database errors but I'm not sure which SQL scripts to run from the install folder and I don't want to lose the data in my VM tables. I did run a discover and database options in the Extension Manager - but there was nothing there.
Could someone please help with a manual upgrade process that includes the database tables - thank you :)
"Error Has Occurred - Copy Failed" is usually a directory permissions or ownership problem as sometimes seen with mis-configured servers.
The way to install with severe PHP limitations is as described here: http://www.phoca.cz/phocagallery/478-how-to-install-large-components-with-help-of-ftp-in-joomla
This way the db should be updated as usual.
Thank you for the link, I have tried this but I am still getting the same error. I need to know which SQL scripts to run to manually update the database urgently.
