    Yesterday I upgraded to myDBR 6.7.0 (build 4929)
    Today I clicked on About / Update again, and it killed myDBR altogether.
    I cannot even get back in to the portal.
    What do I do?

    There was a broken build (build 4930) that caused the app to halt. A new build was released as soon as it was noticed.

    To fox the issue, download the new build and do a manual update:

    • Download the myDBR zip file and unzip it to another directory
    • Chenge the file ownerships to web server so future updates will go smoothly
    • Copy the mydbr_config.php and the user-directory from the old installation to the new one
    • Replace the old one with the new one

    Sorry for the trouble.

    Thanks.
    Question: We had saved a backup of the complete mydbr directory when it was release 6.6.3

    If I restore that directory, and then click on the about/update button will I still have the problem? Or will it know to skip build 4930 and go the build after that?
    I would like to avoid doing the procedure you describe above if I can.

    The database has already been updated to 6.7.0, so you better do the manual update. Follow the instructions above.

    By the time I had got your answer, we had restored 6.6.3, and above the admin tools panel I saw a message saying there was a new release and there was a separate link to upgrade.
    So I clicked on that one and it seemed to update successfully.
    Now about/update shows 6.7.0 (build 4931)
    So can I rest peacefully now, or do I still need to do a manual update?
    I don't exactly know what you mean by "the database has already been updated to 6.7.0 so you better do the manual update"

    The installation is now ok.
