issues with upgrade to v7 SR1a

[softpac]

I just upgraded from v7 RC2 (b8839) to v7 SR1a (b9879) for AbleCommerce ASP.NET v2.0. Followed the upgrade instructions and post-upgrade instructions.

This is not the fist time I have done install/upgrade for AC. The original version I installed was AC7 beta 1. I then upgraded it as the versions came out all they way to RC2, with no problems. Didn't get time to do RC3 upgrade. And have only come up for air now to do the upgrade to SR1a.

The actual upgrade had no problems. But now I am testing my web site, just to make sure everything is ok from a users perspective.

Issue 1: This error occurs for all products, all users, both logged in and anonymous. Selected a product, entered qty 1, clicked Add to Basket. The following error message appears:

[[ConLib:Basket]] c:\inetpub\vhosts\boots-n-all.com.au\httpdocs\ConLib\Utility\BasketItemDetail.ascx.cs(195): error CS0116: A namespace does not directly contain members such as fields or methods

Issue 2: from Merchant Admin console, click Help, About AbleCommerce, following error occurs:

Anyone experienced these errors? Any ideas what I can do? Basically, my web site is dead in the water until I can figure out issue 1. Feel free to try it yourself: http://www.boots-n-all.com.au

Thanks.

I was able to fix issue 1 (well technically it's not a fix, but it will do for the moment), by copying the v7 b9879 /ConLib/Utility/BasketItemDetail.ascx and BasketItemDetail.ascx.cs files. The v7 SR1a version of these files do not seem to work for my web site.

If the SR1a version doesn't work, there must be something customized somewhere that is accessing something that had different coding in 8839. A few things did change between the builds. I've done a couple upgrades to SR1a and didn't have a problem.

I just upgraded from v7 RC2 (b8839) to v7 SR1a (b9879) for AbleCommerce ASP.NET v2.0. Followed the upgrade instructions and post-upgrade instructions.

Did you go directly from RC2 (b8839) to SR1a (build 10152)?

If so, then you have missed a very important part of the upgrade process. If you were on build 8839 (RC2), then there were 3 possible updates available:

AC 7.0 RC3 Build 9381 - 3/27/08 (this one can be skipped from RC2)
AC 7.0 Final Build 9879 - 6/24/08 (** this upgrade is required!)
AC 7.0 SR1a Build 10152 - 8/13/08 (this is a patch that can only be applied to build 9879)

** The SR1a release is only a "patch", not a full upgrade. You must first complete the full upgrade to Final build 9879 and then apply the patch to SR1a. You cannot skip the upgrade to build 9879.

For instructions to upgrade RC2 to Final build 9879, see here -
http://help.ablecommerce.com/upgrades/a ... sp.net.htm

Then, after that is working, you can apply a small patch to SR1a (build 10152).

Hope this helps.

I went from RC2 (b8839) to v1 final (b9879), ie missed RC3. But I thought that was ok, as it implied that in the upgrade instructions. I then tested everything, and all was ok. Then I proceeded to SR1a (b10152). Tested everything, and noticed the problems outlined above.

[Katie]

Yes, that should all be ok.

Maybe we can focus on each error individually to try and figure out what isn't working properly. Usually, when something doesn't work after upgrading it's because of a prior customization. If you have changed the conlib or scriptlets, you may need to use a program to find the differences.

I just tried to place an order and received an error with your SSL on the /checkout/default.aspx and receipt pages -

Code: Select all

Secure Connection Failed
www.boots-n-all.com.au uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed.

Other than that, your site looks to be working fine as far as I can tell.

Is the About page still throwing an error?
When I get a chance, I'll find out what changes were made in the /ConLib/Utility/BasketItemDetail.ascx file. The SR1a patch had a lot of Kit changes.

Just let me know...

Thanks,
Katie

I had a full and proper SSL certificate, but recently decided to let it lapse, I plan to renew it later next year.

I am not aware of any ConLib customisations, but I certainly do have Scriptlet customisations, and come to think of it, I think the original web developer made a change to one of the basket scriptlets, as to which one, I cannot remember.

I backed up the entire wbe site before I upgraded. If I work out which scriptlets were customised, is it safe for me to restore them?

And yes, the About AbleCommerce error still occurs.

[Katie]

Well, it would be better to merge any customizations to the new scriptlets rather than restoring an old file. If we modified them as part of a patch, then the new versions would have bug fixes in them.

Very strange that the about page is not working...I'll need to see if that's come up before.

I am also having a problem with the SR1a PostFinalPatch. I installed a fresh copy of 9879 and then applied the PostFinalPatch only to get an error. I then deleted everything. Again I installed a fresh copy of 9879 and this time installed it without any problems. I then copied the PostFinalPatch files into the working fresh copy of 9879 and again I got an error.

I have figured out that if I only put back the fresh copy of the bin folder from 9879 it again works perfectly.

This is the error I get (even though the error shows it is comming from the App_Code folder I am telling you for sure 100% that this error is resolved by installing the fresh 9879 bin folder instead of the PostFinalPatch bin folder.

The upgrade file in "My Account" brings me to build 8272 not 9879.

I think I need a different upgrade file.
