When upgrading get error message "Error reading INI file..."

Post by v4fadmin »

When upgrading from Version v5.1.0 to v.5.3.3 (using Windows XP) I get the following message "There has been an error. Error reading INI file c:\TimeTrex/timetrex.ini.php. The application will exit now.

What do I need to do to fix this?

Here is the timetrex.ini.php file. It would not let me attach a .php file so I had to make a word document and rename it

The file itself seems fine, though it has been manually modified and data has been removed it, though I don't think that is the cause of the problem.

It likely has more to do with file permissions, are you running the installer as an Administrator user?

Thank you. I was not logged in as Administrator. That worked.
