I am trying to update my gallery3.

I followed the instructions here.

I got to step 10, and when I type the URL, http://www.<mysitenameishere>.com/gallery3/index.php/upgrader into chrome or firefox, I am redirected to http://www.<mysitenameishere>.com/gallery3/installer/ and the page assumes I am installing a fresh gallery3.

I cannot access the updater to update my gallery3 to the latest version... Does anyone know how I can fix this?

if gallery can't read the gallery3/var/database.php file it assumes that it is a fresh install.

Thanks for your help, floridave!

The gallery definately couldn't read the database file!

While moving files around, I made a mistake and moved the old var directory into the new var directory. (gallery3/var/var/database.php)

Thanks again
