    In the upgrade.txt file, it says:

    2. There is no automatic upgrade process. The process is to install the full installation to a temporary directory, so that you have access to the latest version of the files. Then follow the upgra instructions provided

    Nope doesn't work. After 6/28/21 update I noticed .ANS file viewing didn't work. I saw the new 7/2/21 update, has more instructions, but still doesn't work, The upgrade.txt does have more instructions, but it still doesn't
    work for archives of .ANS files. Basically view doesn't work anymore.
    I'll have to do much more digging through upgrade.txt and whatsnew.txt

    ... Everyone has a photographic memory. Some don't have film.

    Fixed the Python issue after a search through this echo.

    It's things like this that are the reason why I'm glad that I keep all the messages my BBS received.

    I did figure _someone_ had an answer for this:

    The Godfather reported that he was having Python problems as well, and Warpslide responded that the Python paths in Configuration -> General Settings were set to Windows paths. At some point in the upgrade process, this happened
    to me as well.

    And, yeah, that was DustCouncil finding the answer, and referencing an even older message where it was also answered.

    Upshot is that I _finally_ have Storm BBS on A47. Now to see what else I need to change and/or have been missing.

    Curiously, pointing the directory to my actual libpython2.7.so.1.0 file, or to the directory it is in, did not work for some reason.

    Blank works.

    ...I'm still at a loss on this one, too, but it actually working is limiting my desire to actually figure it out.

    Not sure if I'll have to figure out something for Python3, regardless. I didn't leave that one blank, but I'm not sure where I'm using Python3 at the moment.

    Good job documenting that for the next guy - you were really good at posting info someone else might need.

    Hah!

    And it _did_ help. Especially since searching with a search engine did not.
