it's not an error. It's trying to convert the database into the new system because it cannot find a valid key that tells the portal what format the DB system is in. Disable all security programs and run in admin. Chances are your firewall or something is screwing it up. Or create a new profile and see if that works. --------------------------------- Dmitri aka "the insensitive one" [size=11][i]Maller, restocker Kirsty siggy stealer Second Best wearables shop owner ever![/i][/size]

Just going to borrow this topic, hehe. So I have downloaded the new portal on my computer and transfered my profile from my old computer to here. (The whole file). When I submitted my shop front I get this message. (see image). I'm thinking it's due to one of the updates since the summer but I could be wrong. If it IS due to an update, what do I change in the file for it to work for me?
