I am upgrading from 1.4.22 to 1.5.6. As per the upgrade documentations, I save all the 1.4.22 by downloading them to my HDD using FileZilla. I then copied the new files except for the /album/ folder (which i kept on my server from 1.4.22), and the anycontent.php.

I have tried then running the update.php script, but nothing happens. I get the following:

If anyone else gets this, there is a simple solution. If is 1.4.xx you had a custom theme, go into the themes folder, backup the custom theme, then copy the files of the 1.4.xx classic theme into that folder. The script should then run - though all the fomatting is messed up - don't worry theough, once the script has completed, select one of the new themes. I am not sure if you can use your old theme with 1.5. Can you??

That's a generic erro that can be caused by several things, that's why you suggestion doesn't necessarilly have to apply for others.

If is 1.4.xx you had a custom theme, go into the themes folder, backup the custom theme, then copy the files of the 1.4.xx classic theme into that folder. The script should then run - though all the fomatting is messed up - don't worry theough, once the script has completed, select one of the new themes.
Nonsense. Do as suggested in the docs we provide. We provide them for a reason. In your particular case, read the upgrade section of the docs carefully, particularly http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/upgrading.htm#upgrade_14_custom_theme

I am not sure if you can use your old theme with 1.5. Can you??
RTFM - especially the section I refered to above. It explains how to upgrade your custom theme.

You shouldn't have hijacked an unrelated thread that dealt with something completely else - I have split your posting from it into a thread of it's own. You should have read board rules and do as suggested there instead.
