I downloaded the 1.2.1-to-1.2.2 patch and overlaid the files, then downloaded the full install, and uploaded upgrade.php, install.php and the install directory. I cleaned out all the caches, unprotected config.php and ran upgrade.php. I then regenerated the module list and upgraded the Profile module, after deleting the aforementioned files.
The site still reports that it is running 1.2.1 and is informing me that an upgrade is available. What am i doing wrong?

It would appear the patch files are missing the upgrade.php file which should be run. You can download the upgrade.php from here.
We'll get the patches updated shortly.

Thanks for looking into this, Drak.
I found my problem. I use BeyondCompare (http://scootersoftware.com) as an ftp client and it failed to catch a difference due to an optimization setting that I shouldn't have been using. As a consequence it had failed to upload the latest pnAPI.php. -

Did we ever do patches for 1.2.0 to 1.2.1? I've got 3 sites that I need to update that are 1.20 still. Plus a legacy PN site I need to get the client on the ball to upgrade before it becomes a more costly venture for him.

upgrade.php won't be able to run without the install directory right? The install directory isn't in the patch either.
I've uploaded the patch to a 1.2.1 site and admin is showing 1.2.2 but I don't want to run into problems later if I should have uploaded the /install directory and upgrade.php from the full download.
It's great that patch file(s) were provided, less to upload, but please consider including an upgrade.html file in the docs directory of the patch that gives instructions for how the patch should be installed. The current upgrade.html included with the patch zip file doesn't even mention a patch, it's the standard upgrade instructions.
When I see the word patch I figure it's a simple file overwrite, different from an upgrade that may include database changes and need to run an upgrade script.

Ok, I failed to run the upgrade module. Is it safe to run it now or should I revert back to 1.2.1 and then upgrade again?
Does the upgrade script only make changes to the database, as I could setup my 1.2.1 on my development site and then upgrade, and then transfer the database to my live site?
I also noticed that files become obsolete. Will the upgrade script take care of these obsolete files to keep the file structure clean?

Should still be safe, I had the same problem and running after the fact didn't cause any problems. As to the obsolete files, no, it won't get rid of them, because it only uploads new files, doesn't delete old ones.

Sorry, but I'm a bit confused after reading all this. Is it better to just upload the patch files, upgrade.php file, and install directory or should I just download the full zip, delete the old files and upload the new ones then run the upgrade.php? It would seem alot easier to just do the patch, but I don't want obsolete files hanging around since I'm doing major customization to my site. -

When I went to download the core 1.2.2 to get the latest /install directory I noticed that the notice at the top of this page
http://code.zikula.org/core/wiki/downloads
"don't know what to download?" points to Zikula 1.2.1

I noticed in the 1.2.1 changelog:
Code
Removed behaviour.js from release.
The above looks like an obsolite file. Are they being removed as part of running the update.php?
I just remember back in the Postnuke days where there were a LOT of files in folders that were obsolite.
I would think that running an update on Zikula or even a module should remove any file that is no longer of use. -

Well, first off, none of your customizations should be done to any files effected by the upgrades, so you shouldn't have to worry about wasting time on Obsolete files. It's just a matter of taking up space. If you want to keep the file system clean, then yes, delete files and upload the new distribution.

As I said, all the patches do is update new things, it does not delete anything.
