I just upgraded my forum finally to 3.0.7, and after the file edits to reinstall the Portal, I got a generic database error. So I uninstalled the CMPS, thinking I would reinstall. Everytime I reinstall, it says that the portal is already installed...
but no sign of the portal entries in PHPMyAdmin.

I'm about to bang my head off the keyboard. Anyone got any idea's?

You are supposed to only run the part of install that reinstalls the templates. It says something like "useful after upgrading vBulletin" in parens beside it.

If you haven't, try downloading the package from here again and use the install file from there. There was a bug reported with this and the package was updated shortly after.

@conq... yup, that's what I ran when I got the error. Sorry I didn't make that clear.

@Brian, thanks, I'll try that.

Try running this query and let me know what it returns...

SELECT * FROM adv_setting WHERE varname LIKE 'portal_%';

I wasn't entirely sure what to report back, so I took a screenshot...

Strange... That's pretty much the same query that's used to check and see if it's installed, so it should work if that query's not returning anything. I'm not entirely sure why it's not working, but if you'd like to submit a support ticket I'll be glad to take a look.

Will do man, but it's gonna have to wait for the time being... I have to get out the door to go to work. Getting it working right now isn't all that important, and I'm sure it was something stupid done on my end. Thanks for the help :D

Thanks man, just removed the redirect, and it works great :D I must have installed the CMPS a hundred times on my localhost, trying to get a feel for how it works.... any idea what I did wrong?

My only guess would be that you weren't using the newest file since it worked fine when I tried...
