Upgrade Archives - David Westerfield

This problem has been perplexing me for several months now, ever since I upgraded my server to 12.10 Quantal. Finally found a solution (Can’t remember the site where I found it though)! These are the instructions for a profile that’s already been configured that no longer works.

Open the NX Client for Windows (in my case).
In the Session section, select the session profile you originally created, that no longer works.
Click Configure.
Under the General tab, and the Desktop section, ensure that Unix and GNOME is selected.
Now, in the same tab, in the Display section, check the box next to Use custom settings, and click Settings.
Under the Performance section, check the box next to Disable the render extension.
Click Ok, then on the next screen, click Save and Ok.
Now try to connect!

Worked for me at least.

I have now gone through a production upgrade of Magento from version 1.4.1 to 1.7. As expected, since I did a test run in my own environment, I encountered quite a few issues along the way, not merely limited to database upgrade issues which were a big enough of a problem themselves.

One of the issues I ran into that is now resolved was related to the individual product pages. When you selected a customized option for a product, such as a certain size, color, or other option, the price would change to zero. After researching the issue for a while, I came up with only other people having the same problem, but no solutions. Until this evening.
