So today I am upgrading Joomla 1.0.7 to 1.0.12

The upgrade is pretty simple. I got the package from here and only need to extract it to the joomla directory.

I got two errors as below:

To solve the first error I edited joomla_dir/globals.php. I changed the line

define( 'RG_EMULATION', 1 );

to

define( 'RG_EMULATION', 0 );

2. To solve the magic_quotes_gpc error I edited the easy_php_dir/conf_files/php.ini file

and modified the line

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

to

magic_quotes_gpc = On
