Topic: db_update loop when upgrading from 1.3.6 to 1.4

I am trying to upgrade from 1.3.6 to 1.4 but I am encountering a loop that during the database update step.

Going to index.php tells me that my database is out of date and that I need to update it. Then going to db_update.php tells me that "Your database is already as up-to-date as this script can make it."

In the database my o_cur_version is listed as 1.4

What can I do to get things working again?

Thanks.

Nevermind. I figured out the problem. My cache directory had incorrect permissions. I had changed them once already, but somehow it didn't take.

The cache directory is located in the root of your install.
