Upgrade from 0.8.7e to 0.8.7g

[dustenatwork]

I just from 0.8.7e to 0.8.7g. I did this by rpm from rpmforge 0.8.7g-2.el4.rf. I am now getting an error like this was a new install. Does anyone have any ideas of what's going on here.

----------------------------------------
Error

You have created a new database, but have not yet imported the 'cacti.sql' file. At the command line, execute the following to continue:

mysql -u cactiuser -p cacti < cacti.sql

This error may also be generated if the cacti database user does not have correct permissions on the cacti database. Please ensure that the cacti database user has the ability to SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, CREATE, ALTER, DROP, INDEX on the cacti database.
----------------------------------------


On a second look it seams that the install/index.php is doing a call for the version and not getting the data from this function.

$old_cacti_version = db_fetch_cell("select cacti from version");



So no matter where this function is called it's returning NULL.

Thanks

So I have found where this function is called and I have dumped the results of the query var.

$query = $db_conn->Execute($sql);
var_dump($query);

You changed include/config.php to enter database credentials, did you?
