If I remember correctly, in 2.0 your username and password information for the database is in a file called dbconfig.php. Check to see if that file exists. If it does, post back to where it's located, is it in the same folder as your efiction? The next step is to check your config.php and make sure it's pointing the script to the right location of your dbconfig.php file.
I found: I put db_config.php in the good directory and The table settingfanfictionsettings correctly settled down but I always have the same problem:
http://www.harrypotterfanfictions-france.com/test/install/upgrade20.php?step=3
black page. Nevertheless Efiction 2.x works very well, I understand not why I have this page black for Efiction 3.2
I don't know what would cause that as I've never run across that issue upgrading. I wish I could offer suggestions..but I don't have any.

black page 😥
View the source on the black page and you'll see that the page isn't actually loading completely. It stops after the </head> tag. This usually means that everything didn't get uploaded properly to your site. You might want to check all the files, especially the ones in the install folder, and make sure they actually end with the php closing tag and that they are the same size as the ones in the download.
In upgrade20.php I have:

It is very strange.
Your upgrade20.php is hugely wrong if that's all there is.
It is complete here:
http://www.harrypotterfanfictions-france.com/Bureau.zip
Can anybody verify it please?
Thank you
Go to the downlaods page and download a new copy. Then open the upgrade20.php file and compare it to the one you have on your server.
The file is identical to the original.
Too install.php .
Did you CHMOD your config.php file to 666?
Yes, CHMOD my config.php file to 666 😥
