error on setup to 1.4.5.7

fdnyfish

$conf['db_software'] = "$conf['db_software'] = ""; MySQLi"; MySQLi
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home1/fdnyfish/public_html/pics/zp-core/functions-basic.php(113) : eval()'d code:1) in /home1/fdnyfish/public_html/pics/zp-core/reconfigure.php on line 36

fdnyfish

Now I get this

$conf['db_software'] = "$conf['db_software'] = ""; MySQLi"; MySQLi

I was upgrading from 1.4.5.2 to 1.4.5.7

fdnyfish

I downloaded and installed 1.4.5.2 and it works again.

Do I need to upgrade every update published?

Am I not allowed to skip versions?

Thanks

Remove the config file within /zp-data, save your credentials and re-run setup to let it re-create it.

Updates within bugfix/mantainance releases like 1.4.5.x should never be a problem (unless stated by us for some technical reasons). On updates from major versions likes 1.4.5.x to 1.4.6. that introduce new features it might be different. You will see it also as their release posts are quite detailed contrary to the bugfix release ones. This is also explained here:

When I remove the config file within /zp-data and try to re-run setup, mow I get a "ERROR 500 - INTERNAL SERVER ERROR" from my hosting company

Those messages make sense if there is no config file. Probably something with the permissions is not right on your host. Within zp-core you find a template file of the config files. Use that to create one manually.

Permissions issues could indeed be the source of both issues.

I deleted the setup folder and reuploaded it

Installed fine after that

1.4.5.7 is installed
