    Unannounced by the provider there was an upgrade over the weekend and on Monday I could no longer login to my site. I read here and figured out I am running on an older version (a .763 plat) and it cant run on PHP 5.25.

    I cannot login to even start the upgrade process (changing default theme etc but the first user admin is set to lite). The site runs which is a blessing, but no one can log in, the curse.

    The question is what should I do to upgrade to .763 when I cant get in to check modules, themes, etc? I don't want to mess it up and I am not sure I have any other host still on php4 to move it too. I will look at that possibility while I wait for replies here.

    I am wondering if the Swiss Army Knife would do any good?

    763 to 764 is a just a patch upgrade and you should be able to just overwrite the files (other than config.php and your pnTemp folder).

    Well, I cant seem to get to the download page to get the patches. I see them but when I click the page is in error. I was hoping that would solve the issue but have no way to try it.

    forbidden! Errors and no way to download. Anyone know where to download the patches for PostNuke?

    Don't bother looking for a patch, just download 0.76 and overwrite your current install (other than what you need to keep that is).

    Just follow the upgrade instructions found in this thread.
