Upgrade Finished! Continue here...
For support and questions please visit us at www.joomlaplug.com

No, you didn't had to do anything, just that you made a clone restore which used that dir first, then when the second script tried to use it it was no possible!
I will include a fix for this in the JoomlaStart tool so you get a warning next time this happens!

Ovidiu

Cool! Think I am close now. Are you going to include the fix in teh Plugin or just eh desktop tool?

What do you thik about those warnings I got?

It apears that it upgraded ok. Still need to look around.

By the way when Joomla upgrades does it also upgrade things in the DB or just files?

The joomla upgrade only upgrades the files, the database doesn't require updates!
About the messages you got, it's just a warning becuse you already directories there, it doesn't affect in any way the upgrade process!

And the fix will be only for the JoomlaStart tool, the JoomlaDekstop works ok, but i will investigate more the error you got!

Ovidiu

Also do you know if there is any kind of scrip or plugin for Joomla so that I can use to set all the permissions for various directores and settings before upgrading. Then another one that would set everything back so that noththing is left unsecure?

zorro......

By default JoomlaStart does this for you, but when upgrading it doesn't not change any permissions leaving them as default!

Second, when it does a simple install, the only permissions it changes are only the one that Joomla requires, images folder, modules, components and so on!

If you really need to secure Joomla you will need to follow a security guide for this!

- password protect administrator directory with apache authentication(htpasswd), the same for other directories you don't access directly on the web(like components directory, but not also the images/ one, this one is used for displaying the images, same for templates/), and also if you don't plan to make any change to configuratio.php, change it's permissions to 644
