Hiring an Expert to upgrade to Coppermine 1.3.1

[tanfwc]

There is nothing for me to apologize for. There were no "allegations" made. I paid to have the upgrade done, it was botched and my site is still DOWN! These are facts not allegations.

As what i have said, you need to get the database copy from your support staff. I can't do anything about it.

I am waiting for you to give instructions. I have been very nice to you already. But you seem to damage my reputation without any reason. Telling you honestly, everyday people send tips to me to thank me for either upgrading or patching their gallery.

I have checked your files and i can see that ApGallery is not in the FTP already. I am not sure what you have done. You are doing things the wrong way and not informing what you are doing.

If you want, i just send back your money and i can don't take up this job. But since this problem is here, i like to help you out and explain to you what happen. Just that you don't listen to me and shoot words here that i left your site in a mess.

Please think about what i have said.

The allegation was that Tanfwc took your money and left you without completing the job.  It appears he did not do that, but he is still trying to help you, and that the problem is due to the database lockdown, which is not his fault.

If that is the case, then an apology IS required to Tanfwc.

I've been in contact with my host and requested that my site be restored.

At this point the best help Tanfwc can provide is a $10 refund.

I'm sorry things didn't work out better.  Thanks for giving it your best effort!

it's none of my business, but as far as I can judge, tanfwc had a lot of work with this issue - he ran into problems that he could not fix because it was your webhost's (or even your) fault. I think a refund is not applicable...

since you are contacting with your host and getting your site to be restore. I can upgrade for you once it is been restored. Just tell your host to give me a couple of the database data incase it fail again.

I want to apologize to Tanfwc for over reacting to our communication problem. 

Fact is these things are complicated.  Thow in the mix that I'm no PHP guru and I'm the middle man between my host and an installer, it really was quite frustrating. 

Thanks to Kegobeer for providing the necessary fix to get 1.3.2 working on my Host server.  It works fantastically.

Tanfwc let me ask GauGau, "Is it ok for me to send Tanfwc an Email?   If so I'll send you one with a few mods I think may work well.

Nice to know things worked out between you and Tanfwc

fine by me, all I wanted was tanfwc's reputation not to be damaged if he did nothing wrong. Since everything seems to be solved, I'm content woth everything. Thanks in advance for any code contributions.
