Trying to update to RC2. updated maps no problem. Then tried to upload RC2. First it gave an error indicating that php.ini upload size is to small. I went into the php.ini and changed the size to 4m. Restarted apache and attempted to upload again. This time I go this error:
A patch with the same ID has already been uploaded
You can download the full RC2 tarball and extract it over the top of your existing installation. Then, you’ll either need to run install/step_03.php with the CLI PHP binary, or re-run the Web-Based installer to upgrade the database.
At this point, there is no easy way to remove entries from the MAPS table. If you’re comfortable working in a shell and with PostgreSQL, you could remove the entry from the [font=“courier”]sq_patches[/font] table and possibly remove the corrupted tarball uploaded to [font=“courier”]SYSTEM_ROOT/data/private/maps/downloaded_patches/[/font]. However, I don’t recommend this process for a production system.
There shouldnt be any DB entry for a MAPS patch until it has been installed, so dont worry about that. The problem is that a directory has been created for your RC2 patch (although I dont know why it would have if the file upload failed). Delete the directory from SYSTEM_ROOT/data/private/maps/downloaded_patches/ which has the same name as the patch. Then you should be able to upload it again.
Edited to add that I would actually recommend this for production systems because you are not actually editing any data 
Listen to Greg – he wrote the MAPS system, so he knows better than I.

Heh, just relized I was trying to re-upload the maps patch… Once I tried the RC2 patch, the upload started to work fine but then I got this error:
ERROR: Could not update file "/core/db/tables.xml" - MD5 strings did not match - local file may have been modified
I have not modified that file… any ideas?
Aww nevermind. I decided to just wipe the installation and start from scratch (I only had test pages on there anyway).
Even though you dont need it now, you can ignore the MD5 checking for MAPS patches by checking the option on the confirmation screen for the patch.
