Obviously the integra cant find something from the old forum, how do I rectify this error?

phpBB : Critical Error

Could not get theme data for themes_id [3]

Can you set your forum to the default theme? Kind of looks like it may be a unsupported theme issue.

[Karl-D]

Hya thanks for your reply.
How do I restore to default as I cant open the forum?
If this is from mysql what do I alter?

[Karl-D]

Below are the parts I dropped from the integra and then inserted from the database backup

`phpbb_auth_access` ,
`phpbb_banlist` ,
`phpbb_categories` ,
`phpbb_color_groups` ,
`phpbb_forums` ,
`phpbb_forum_prune` ,
`phpbb_groups` ,
`phpbb_jr_admin_users` ,
`phpbb_posts` ,
`phpbb_posts_text` ,
`phpbb_privmsgs` ,
`phpbb_privmsgs_archive` ,
`phpbb_privmsgs_text` ,
`phpbb_ranks` ,
`phpbb_themes` ,
`phpbb_themes_name` ,
`phpbb_themes_select_info` ,
`phpbb_topics` ,
`phpbb_topics_watch` ,
`phpbb_topic_view` ,
`phpbb_users` ,
`phpbb_user_group` ;

[Karl-D]

Where abouts is the templates data located in phpmyadmin on the database?

[CaNNon]

try replacing:
`phpbb_themes` ,
`phpbb_themes_name` ,
`phpbb_themes_select_info` ,
with the the default as a start but I think you may have to put it all back. I'm not sure what you were trying to do but, the info is in the data base back up and not the files.

[Karl-D]

This is doing my head in a bit now as I have been trying to convert over to integra for a while now but keep hitting problems like this one.
Problem is I have to keep all the data and not start from scratch <img>

[nGAGE]

Sometimes it may be easier to have the one database as phpbb_blabla and the second as phpbb2_blabla ... then with phpMyAdmin just go table by table copying contents from one to the other! That way you see what will match and what will not.

[Karl-D]

I am going to do a standard phpbb forum and just drop the basics that I need and insert from my backup so I basically get a standard forum working then do as an upgrade to integramod, see how that goes.

Thanks for your advice its much appreciated, this bugger wont beat me <img>

[nGAGE]

That's the spirit <img>

[Karl-D]

Well got the temp forum up no problems

Ok looking good, and you seem to have all the data.

After I failed a few times, I found easer for me if i updated the php version next.
Buy going 1 step at a time it was just easer for me to trace any mistakes I made.
So check if your @ 2.0.22 I think thats the latest you can upgrade from.

[found it]

When upgrading to integramod you must have your theme set to subsilver as the system will not recognise any other theme....

The reason you received that error is that extreme styles could not find theme 3 as it was looking for theme 1....

if you keep your theme set as subsilver and uninstall any other themes there should be no problem..

[Karl-D]

Hya thanks for your replies, what I have done is downloaded the subsilver theme for integramod so once I have done the upgrade its still the same theme.

I have done a more up to date backup of my original forum which is also on the original domain name that my forum runs on so just doing a standard phpbb forum for that now but re-inserting more such as groups etc.

At least I still have the temp forum up whilst I work on the main one.

Hi

You must have what ever theme you are using set to 1 in your theme table in your database otherwise you will receive the same error...

[Karl-D]

Hya is this the part you mean?

Code: Select all

themes_id mediumint(8)   UNSIGNED No  auto_increment

[found it]

yes you just need to make sure that whatever theme is set to number 1 then thats what you use when upgrading...

[Karl-D]

Ar right so for instance delete all other themes baring the default one prior to doing the backup, so when I upgrade its still looking for the default theme i.e. theme (1)?

[found it]

thats it...



then just add themes once you have upgraded....

[Karl-D]

OK am getting there just too many steps backwords <img>

[Karl-D]

I seem to have everything working on the integra now, however when I am in the acp and click ick on IM portal for some reason when I click on "Blocks Management" I just get a blank screen on the right side.

Any ideas what could be cousing this?

[Karl-D]

Just solved the Blocks Management bit, I re-uploaded the admen section from the integra package and is now working.

[Karl-D]

Hya for some reason members are getting this error whilst trying to logon to the forum, any idea how I could sort this?
