The upgrade is still going but very, very slowly.
I have two boxes below the progress bar: a blue one and a white one.
The blue one has:

no, it only takes a few seconds - 20 top... what happens if you restart it? does it go further...
keep your db backup from before you upgraded as we may want to try this again...

If I restart, it just keeps aborting and showing the error msgs.

Yes - we have had a couple of users where the upgrade script failed to update the SP permissions (actually the sfroles table). Despite much testing and actually being given a users database to try it ourself we have been unable to track it down and it is just two or three people. and now yours is showing the same symptoms.
Would you be able to restore your database to try it again from scratch?

Nop. I do not have a back up.
I guess I'll have to 1) remove my forum or 2) start from scratch with a new one.
Am I right?

you could.. but if you have lots of posts, that would not be pleasant...
you should, as we suggest, always make a db backup when upgrading wp, themes or plugins...
it is possible to reset the permissions to an expected state... on forum - permissions - manage permissions, you can create the permissions once again...

I decided to remove the plugin and start over, but I think I'm stacked at the same problem.
After uploading the zip and clicnking on Activate Plugin, WP shows the message: "The plugin does not have a valid header."
Your advice, please?

I have been told recently that this is a common WordPress error when installing a plugin via the zip uploader that has sub-folders (as SP does).
If you go to the actual plugins page are you able to then activate it?

Yes , it does. But then it tries to upgrade again.
Probably because of the old database still there...
What do you suggest?

what do you mean again? if you just added the plugin, it will try to ugprade from old one...
are you wanting to complete remove? thought you said you uninstalled? via the sp admi panel? this would have removed the data...
