Upgrade problems from 7.5.4

[Thufir]

I've been unable to upgrade from 7.5.4 at all to any version of 8.x. Attempts through the upgrader in Plesk say that it's installing, but when going back at a later time, no packages were upgraded.

I tried to run /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/autoinstaller which fails on all versions other than 7.5.4 -- which is already current anyway.

The errors that autoinstaller is giving are below for all 3 versions. Anyone have an idea on a solution?

Problem FIXED

I eventually worked out what needed to be done. For some reason the autoinstaller wouldn't do this:

I'm using Redhat ES3, and had to do a forced upgrade to some of the base files. "rpm -U --force --nodeps" on the following files:

psa-8.1.0-rhel3.build81061129.22.i586.rpm
psa-libpam-plesk-8.1.0-rhel3.build81061129.22.i586.rpm
psa-locale-base-en-US-8.1.0-rhel3.build81070201.15.noarch.rpm


Once this was done, I ran the autoinstaller again, and was able to install all needed packages. It did show that the base package was still not the new version, probably because other files weren't yet installed. It is now showing everything to be current.
