Upgrade problem

[M Wheeler]

Hi

Having awful problems upgrading from 3 to 4.09 on MS SERVER 2003, IIS 6.0, CF 7,0,2.  Heres what I have done so far

• Copied my original web folder to the projects one, bit by bit and duplicated settings in the application.cfm based on a dummy farcry 4.09 site I successfully set up previously, adding the farcryinit tag and tag import
• <cfimport taglib="/farcry/core/tags/farcry/" prefix="farcry" />
• <farcry:farcryInit name="psl" projectURL="http://IP HERE/" dsn="psl" dbType="mssql" plugins="farcrycms" />
• Added typename column to the dmNavigation_aObjectIDs Table with varchar(250) type
• renamed the objectid column in same table to parentid
• deleted ./config/_applicationInit.cfm
• deleted ./config/_dmSecUserDirectories.cfm

I want to run the updates now but the application won't initialize even with updateapp=1 url variable.  I have scoured the forums and bug site to no avail.

Any assistance appreciated.

Thanks
Mark

To upgrade from FarCry 3.x to 4.x make sure to check out these  
directions http://docs.farcrycms.org/display/FCDEV40/Upgrading+from+Earlier+Versions

Also, unless if I am mistaken, the value for projectURL is only used  
if you are running your site from an alias folder, otherwise if you're  
just running the site from the root domain leave the value blank.  If  
your alias is called myalias use projectURL="myalias" (not projectURL="http://www.mydomain.com/myalias 
").  Find more info about the farcryinit tag at http://docs.farcrycms.org/display/FCDEV40/Application+Initialisation

I have very closely followed these instruction, numerous times now and am unsure what my issue is The error is

Application Failed to Initialise

struct

Detail

If the component name is specified as a type of this argument, the reason for this error might be that a definition file for such component cannot be found or is not accessible.

Message

The argument SCOPE passed to function initMetaData() is not of type string.

	    The argument SCOPE passed to function initMetaData() is not of type string.

Maybe its to do with the plugins architecture, as I was a little unsure here of how to fix this in the new version?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
