    I tried to update an installation to 2.5, unfortunatly I forgot to logout and maybe that s the cause of the login error i get:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined method modUser_mysql::getPhoto() in /home/comprepnl/domains/computer-reparateur.nl/public_html/manager/controllers/default/header.php on line 112

    Or is this related to PHP 5.3.29

      Are you sure the update went smoothly? How did you upload the new version's files?

        Thanks Susan, I uploaded the zip over ftp, unzipped in cpanel.

        After noticing above error I deleted cache contents, etc. Guess I l download again and upload once more.

          You can also try the install.php script, it downloads and moves the files into place for you. It's specifically intended for new installations, but it works for upgrades as well.

            Maybe a silly answer, but did you actually run the installer?
            I once only updated the cms by uploading the new version with FTP, forgot to run the installer and got allkind of errors lipsrsealed

              maybe? as rtfm the server requirements is PHP 5.3.3 and above.
              sorry this was nonsense, you have a higher version

              btw: I updated my testpage MODX 2.4.2-pl to 2.5.0-rc1 with the installer from susan smiley
              After that I upgraded to PHP7 without problems. This is big speed improvement! [ed. note: krischel last edited this post 10 years, 7 months ago.]

                Finaly tackled above, related to this post:

                Thanks! This also worked for me. If you're not so familiar with the process:

                1. Go into phpmyadmin via CPanel
                2. Look for a table called modx_dashboard_widget in the MODX database (Alt: just search on 'modx_dashboard_widget' in the phpmyadmin search)
                3. Delete any big brother or google analytics entries.
