Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade an older version 2.1.2 to the newest version of Gallery2 - I simply downloaded the new gallery2 files (I'm not sure which package were installed originally, so I picked the Full one) and owerwrote the files on the server.

When going to the Gallery, the upgrade page loads and I get to the page where I have to autenticate myself. It then tells me that it succeeded and to continue - but whenever I press continue, it start over to the page where I have to select the language of the installation and then it keeps going in circles.

Can anyone help me out with that?

Thank you in advance! :)

Jesper

Oh I forgot - I get the following errors at the top of the upgrade page:

I would suspect some setting has changed since you originally installed G2. Looks to me like the session save path is not right or is not writable.
