Hi,

After performing an upgrade, I didn't get the upgrade wizard to step through as described would happen in the Administrators guide even if I followed the instruction to "add “?g=upgrade” to the URL if necessary". Under site admin the version says v2.6.0 and when I go to add new files it has the new awesome drag and drop feature so should I even worry?

Background; Running on Windows 2k3 r2, SQL Server Express 2008 R2. I was on Gallery Pro version 2.4.1 and upgraded by upgrading to .NET4, setting the .ASP version in IIS6 for the application to .NET4, adding the new web.config, correcting the connection string, then copying the files for 2.6 over the top of my existing files and restarting IIS6.

That's the question. :) What did the upgrade consist of? If you have the new awesome drag-n-drop file uploader then you're running v2.6, the latest and greatest!

You could do a SQL query to confirm by checking the DataSchemaVersion in the app_setting table, which should say 2.6.0, in which case you know you're good to go.

select * from gs_appsetting

select * from gs_appsetting returns 2.6.0 so i guess i'm good to go.

i know it sounds like a daft thing to write "after an upgrade i didn't get the upgrade wizard", but i was just following the step by step instructions in the administrator guide pdf which advised i should have seen an upgrade wizard when i browsed to the site after the steps i had taken. i guess as the table has updated that the wizard ran and completed without the need of any input from me.

"a daft thing to write." Funny!

Don't worry, it's Roger's fault. The GSP Administrator's Guide is the most comprehensive guide in the OS application space, so it's easy to get sucked up in it and become sidetracked. :)

Happy v2.6 GSP-ing!
