Upgrade issues
« on: April 13, 2021, 08:30:24 AM »
Hi,

I'm going from 3.5.9 to the latest copy. I tried to update online, but it just sat there saying "updating..." with a spinner. Firebug console said there was a 500 error.

So I tried the manual update process:

1) Backup my files and DB
2) Upload the new files over them
3) Go to the admin page, where it asks me to click the button to update.

(can't include the link as it won't let me post???)

Looking at my error log, I see (attached, as it tells me I can't upload here due to having links in - even though this code contains no links! I just spent 30 minutes trying to post this thread :( )

Any suggestions on what to try next?

Thanks!

Andy

I would update in this way.
3.5.9 - 3.6
3.6 to 3.7
3.7 to 3.8
3.8 to 3.9
3.9 to 4.3

I was testing just 3.9 to 4.3, this or next week I am planning to test 3.3 to 4.3 so will see how it works directly.

Thanks. I was trying to find historic versions to try this, but I can't seem to find them linked anywhere?

Cheers

They all should be at sourceforge

BTW a bug with the upgrade tool seems to be around:

Code: [Select]
$.getJSON("http://osclass.org/latest_version_v1.php?callback=?", function(data) {
                    if(data.version <= version) {
                        steps.innerHTML += '<?php echo osc_esc_js__('C

Blocked loading mixed active content "http://osclass.org/latest_version_v1.php?callback=jQuery18009303215151357456_1618298737381&_=1618298737482"jquery.min.js:2:84342

I'm on a https domain, so obviously its not happy with http:// being called. Any reason those don't use // as the protocol, so it would work with http or https?

May be safer to go to http while upgrade.
It is very old version and in that time, ssl protocol was not so used and was expensive

Even that doesn't work :( If I try and run the upgrade from the browser I get:

Can someone point me to a URL where I can find the older versions? I looked on Google, but iut came back with a lot of different URLs. I'm always dubious of downloading scripts from  URLs other than the original site, in case they are tampered with and have viruses / malware hidden inside them

Thanks!

https://sourceforge.net/projects/osclass/files/

Thanks- but that only goes up to 3.7.1, not 4.x ?

Here you should be able to find all releases made by osclass original.

Hmm so where do I get the later versions?

3.7 to 3.8
3.8 to 3.9
3.9 to 4.3

I found a github repo / fork - is that it?

Cheers

OK got it. I managed to find 3.8.1 online. I installed that. Then did an upgrade to the latest, and it worked perfectly this time :)

One issue I do have though: http://websouq.com/

If you select "arabic" as the language, most of the URLs are broken:

http://websouq.com//

Yet they are fine in English. Is there another tweak I need to do somewhere?

Thanks!

Andy
