Step5 issues

My daughter uses the XMB forum for years now. I runned it on PHP 4.x.
Unfortenately the support for that at godaddy is very expensive, so I upgraded it to PHP 8.5. It runs well for a few days but when my support contract was due it stops.
Then I tried to update to The latest version 1.10.02

First problem is that i could only upload files so I made manually all the dirs ( lot of work) and I checked it. I place all te files and dirs in a new directory.
I then run the install and filled in the database from the old version. I saved it. and then pushes I already saved it , continue.
There it stopped. The URL is showing step 5.
A config.php was made but gives error.
When I remove the config.php I can start alover and strand again on step 5.
What am I doing wrong?

Be a miracle if an xmb that was running on php 4.x also worked on php 8.5.

Anyway, here's what I'd do to ensure it's not a webhost/php issue.

Do a fresh xmb TEST install including a new test database.
If that doesn't work, ask yourself if it's the config file configured incorrectly.
If it does work maybe determine what version of xmb you were using.

Had a maximum of databases at my host. I will close one, so I can make a fresh database.

Made a fresh test forum and a new database.
Result:
Incorrect Configuration
Unable to connect to the database specified in config.php.
And with SQL errors logged
Access denied for user 'PGuser'@'localhost' to database 'PG'
(errno = 1044)
$db->connect() was called by /home/ns7dwijp97x9/public_html/packardgoose/interactive/PG/xmb/include/Bootup.php on line 287.

I try to instal 1.10.02 on PHP 8.2

This looks like a simple namespace error in the XMB 1.10 code, however it deserves some testing to make sure there is only one error.

Here is the new bug entry:

https://bugs.xmbforum2.com/view.php?id=884

solved ( i hope defenately)

Main problem was importing an to old database in 1.10.02 Therefore I tried to do it table for table but in the end number of colums were different.
Now with the help of the guy from "Dosbox" upgraded to 1.9.12 and than to 1.10.02 that worked.

So I think the real problem in the end was my knowledge to do the things in the right way and in the right order.
