Now running MT 3.0

Prolific.org (a one author, one blog site) is now running MT 3.0 (free version). Upgrading went smoothly. Some tips:

  • Remember not to overwrite mt.cfg
  • Remember not to overwrite mt-db-pass.cgi.
  • Remember to delete mt-load.cgi
  • Remember to delete mt-upgradeXX.cgi

    These things are not mentioned in the upgrade instructions.

    I’m not sure I’ve got the right comment settings yet. I think they’re on ‘approved’ now, so don’t be weirded out when your comments don’t show up immediately.

    Update: just noticed an error at the bottom of my Main Menu:

    $sth->{'insertid'} is deprecated, use $sth->{'mysql_insertid'} at /usr/(etc)/ObjectDriver/DBI/mysql.pm line 30.

    2. I got it working okay second time -a very quick process, and smooth (so far). The instructions are pretty poor, which makes me certain the whole thing is a rush job.

    3. I don’t think they made any difference between the upgrade package and the full package.

      As for performance: it’s even slower than 2.6 .

    4. I just signed myself up with TypeKey, but I’ve yet to find a blog where I’ve needed to log in to post a comment. I’m not quite sure I understand how it works yet.

      I wonder if I should bother waiting until the “non-developer” version to install 3.0…

    5. I managed to muck up the upgrade rather spectacularly so was forced to start again with the full version!
      Chris - Tom at Plasticbag has enforced the strictest Typekey - you’ll need to log in there.

    6. Hey Caroline, please make me smile and tell me that you’re NOT running MT-Blacklist with 3.0. Please please! :-)

    7. Hi Jay,

      I haven’t run it since I installed MT30, but I had forgotten to delete it.

    8. And this is my homepage.
