Hey, could use some help here, and I am not the only user with the issue.
here's the latest testing steps:
updated 1.1.9 to 1.2.0
changed the prefix on the db from AB to AC_ so the sql update would run.
changed the config file for the new prefix
ran the update link within the Admin panel.
Update stated Successful and the info in within the logs.
Verified the site still loads correctly - it did. But the template used is default_html5
Went to tables - layout, and in the template_id changed the existing default to default_old
Changed the template_id from "default_html5" to "default". (not quotes, of course)
can't clear cache, because can't access Admin panel or storefront either at the above.
There is something very flawed in this process. Either the update files are missing something or???
My sites are not code changed, except for color on header on stylesheet - so there should not be any reason for this to happen like this. Now if we are willing to continue to use the default_html5 template then it works, but I believe that is simply deferring a future problem and also interferes with extensions - etc.
Please either explain this, or tell us how to fix this, or even better fix it so it will work.
As I said I can rebuild with a fresh install, and porting the Db, ETc. but that is not an elegant fix to installations that are not altered from the original Abantecart coding. And I know several users that I communicate with are reluctant to do that.
