My January trick of forcing Joomla installation onto the root has come back to haunt me. When I installed that first Joomla, I put it on the /joomla16 folder. I later had to copy it to the root to enable the URL of my site be accessible without adding /joomla16. By that time, I had not developed any site pages or modules, so the risk was low and there was nothing to loose.
Now I have developed a site with articles, modules and databases. My current problem is that softaculous still remembers that joomla was installed in /joomla16. It has forced the upgrade of joomla 1.7 to be installed on the /joomla16 folder. However, since January, all my Joomla site and structure is being done at the root. (I have not yet logged onto the /joomla16 to finalize the upgrade, since this is not what I expected. Nonetheless, my site is still working well based on joomla 1.6 on the root).
Can I get help on either upgrading Joomla1.6 to Joomla1.7 without softaculous or forcing softaculous to install the upgrade on the root. I can not see an option of changing the default installation location when doing an upgrade with softaculous.
Your valuable help is always appreciated.
