upgrade issues

hi i have upgraded from 0.9 to evolution and although it wasnt that smoothest everything appears to now be working i have two outstanding issues though.

details:

MODx version 1.0.0
Version codename rev 5601

Database server localhost
Database Version: 4.1.15-Debian_0.dotdeb.4-log
Database Charset utf8
Database Collation Charset utf8_bin

PHP Version 4.4.8-0.dotdeb.0

• Saving the configuration in the manager , the page displays connection reset in firefox the message differs in IE
• The editor is not working namely FCKeditor, i am using the latest fckeditor from the downloads

any help would be appreciated.

bump

I don’t think FCK has been updated. I would expect that when CK editor is released as a MODx Add-on it will work.

Saving the configuration in the manager , the page displays connection reset in firefox the message differs in IE

More details please; not sure exactly what’s happening here.

thankyou for the reply, i didn’t know that.

With the configuration issue it is when i try and save, even when clicking retry in firefox it just does the same i have attached a picture.

there doesn’t seem to be any error in IE the error is "This page cannot be displayed"

What collation does phpMyAdmin say the tables actually using. It’s easy to get a mismatch, particularly on legacy installations that have been upgraded.

I seem to recall some issues in the past with the way Debian servers interact with MODx, but that could be complete hogwash and a figment of my imagination. How is PHP running, and can it be upgraded to a more recent release?

it had them as latin1_swedish_ci so i changed them to utf8_bin using:

alter table yourtable default collate utf8_bin; for each table

(the default collation is already set to utf8_bin)

but it’s still not working, i do have a duplicate table set, modx_2 with a default installation when i change the config to this it is working, anything else i need to do to those tables?

You can’t actually just convert the table types without first performing some data migration steps. You’ll have to Google around for some info on that or hopefully someone will chime in here with more details. I believe it involves a set of export/import steps and can’t always be guaranteed to be lossless, but I’m not certain.
