	I suspect that the issue is caused by not replacing the files in the 'database' folder with those from the latest version. To fix the issue; 1. Replace all the files in your forum including those in the 'database' folder with those from the latest version. 2. Make sure you have write permissions enabled on the 'database' folder so that the upgrade wizard can write to the files in this folder required for the forum setup/upgrade. 3. Go to your forum in your web browser were you will have the upgrade wizard run and follow the on screen instructions. Full upgrade instructions for the SQL Server version can be found on the page below; https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/kb/sql-server-upgrade.htm

	Bruce, I ended up converting over to MySQL Server 5.0.96 ; but i'm not able to connect its stating: Server Error in Forum Application An error has occurred while connecting to the database. Please contact the Forum Administrator. Support Error Code:- err_mySQL_db_connection File Name:- database_connection.asp Forum Version:- 11.05 Error details:- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified Any idea?

	The error means the myODBC 5.1 driver required for Classic ASP to be able to connect to a mySQL database is not installed on the server. You would need to have the myODBC 5.1 driver installed on the web server. If you were to host the forum with us we provide a Web Wiz Forums Migration Service for £19.95 that includes upgrading to the latest version.
