Looks like, you are one steps behind to upgrade your board. You have successfully upgraded your files to latest version but the database is still not upgraded. You will need to run upgrade.php file to upgrade your database. Kailash
Your host is right..ask your question here: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php Kailash How do I run upgrade.php..?
I am not sure in automatic SMF upgrade but when you upgrade your SMF manually, you will find upgrade.php file in the root folder of your SMF. upgrade.php only requires if there is database upgrade from previous version. It will just execute few SQL queries. Kailash
If you upgrade your SMF, make sure that all the files and folders that will be affected in the upgrade have a permission of 777. You should make a back-up of your forum site and its database before you make any upgrade.
Thanks for Your reply.I have tried in All The Ways But No result.I have asked my host they told there is some problem with SMF script so plz reinstall it i again installed the latest version But i found same result and one of my friend has old version of smf 1.1.7 but he also facing same problem i think its the problem of smf script there is wrong syntax written in Mysql that's why its happened and it need to be rectified manually. Thanks.
