upgrade to 5.5 no success

[aarbee]

I have tried to upgrade my phpvms version 2.9.1 to 5.5.2.

That resulted in not 100% working.

What did I do?

Create a database-backup from my regular site and upload that into a temporary testsite database.

Unzipped and uploaded the 5.5.2 zipfile to the new location and ran install.

The default skin works. But when I go into admin, I see that I am missing items in the menubar. One of them is settings.

I can go to settings via /admin/index.php/settings and can change the skin.

Yet the skin is not working as expected. But the skin is second plan.

First is to fix the adminpart. What do I need to do, in order to accomplish this?

Thanks ahead,

Can we see a link?

[aarbee]

Ow yes.

Here is the updated 5.5 version www.redline-group.eu

This is the active 2.9 version www.citylink-va.com

Thanks,

Looks like you don't have layout.php uploaded.

That is what I thought.

But if I go here: http://www.redline-g...2016/layout.php

I can see a page. Though not with much in it, as I have not uploaded all the modules. Perhaps it is a good idea to mark them as text for the time being.

This one works too: http://www.redline-g...ndex.php/pilots

Yet the first thing I would like to fix is the admin part.

I have enclosed a screenshot of the 2.9 and 5.5 settings part in admin.

I am missing a lot in the 5.5 version.

Can that be fixed?

Thanks,

I have just checked. But layou.php is available, but not being loaded on the startpage.

It is being loaded on the followup pages.

[flyalaska]

you need to upload it to your skins folder. lib/skins/your skin

[aarbee]

It is in that location.

lib/skins/cl2016/layout.php

Like here:

http://www.redline-group.eu/lib/skins/cl2016/layout.php

But unfortunatiely it seems not to load.

Your help is appreciated.

A new installation of 5.5.2 works. I have tested this with PHP 7.0.1 And that works too.

So I am having a basis to start with.

Meanwhile I had fiddled out that a include is working a bit different. Not /directory/directory/file.nam but directory/directory/file.nam.

So without the /

The admin panel also works now.

(I have no dat in the database, but I am trying to rebuild my original site.)

On this moment I wonder why the layout.php is not being read at all.

(test site redline-group.eu)

Thanks,
