Manual Database update 3.2.0 ?

Post by onomoney »

Hi Anyone...
I have done an update to 3.2.2 from 3.2.1
Everything went well except the DB
I have no button that says Database Only
and the installer seems to be stuck in a loop

I am assuming this is the issue

Conflict files
ext/phpbb/viglink/composer.json
ext/phpbb/viglink/composer.json


I have hashed out viglink in the extentions
I have manually cleared the cache with FTP

Now I have even deleted the viglink file
and I am getting the same thing.


Conflict files
ext/phpbb/viglink/composer.json
ext/phpbb/viglink/composer.json

Now hash out the install folder and the site works fine
I still can not update the database

I know if this happened in the past there was a link
The link to the update the database I could put in the browser and update it.

Does anyone know what the link is to do this?


It worked great.
But I have searched and can no longer find it
Missing a keyword or something to locate it.......

Thanks Brad West

Thanks Steve I have done this many many times and there seems to be no way to get to the "update database"

This seems to be the issue Not sure how to get rid of it
Deleted the EXT and cleared the cache.

If you are using the complete full package files and not the auto update files then you normally can't get that message or that problem.
the file replacement method does not have any conflicts.

however, since you are getting this error then maybe you need to delete the migration files from the folder named "install".

don't delete any database backups that might be there but you can delete any other files except for the index.html file.

Thank you so much Robert!

I deleted all the folders in everything except the "schemas" folder
Went to https://offthejacks.com/install
and it went real smooth and fast.
All seems to be good at this point

Stay Awesome!

Woops now I have no board

what schemas folder?

I am getting nothing but blank pages at your board.

did you delete the config.php file? or overwrite it with the blank one?

exactly, step by step what did you do?

No in the ext folder the viglink extension is showing this under the Customise tab

Disabled Extensions
The “phpbb/viglink” extension is not valid.
Failed to decode json file: ./../ext/phpbb/viglink/composer.json

Config file is good....

what does that have to do with the "schemas" folder wherever that is.

what that means is that you are missing some files/folders.

the vigilink extension comes with phpbb so it should not be missing the files if you uploaded all new files for your update.

It seems to be missing something
I just uploaded and rewrote the files in viglink still nothing
I will get another fresh copy and upload it from that
Just wondering what files are in the core that may need updated if that dosn't work
or maybe a fresh install of everything...
well not everything
you know what I mean

I suggest you go back to 3.2.1 if you have the backups made just before you attempted the update.

I do not know if your current problems are related to the current issues with the 3.2.2 update or not but I am waiting for 3.2.3 that is supposed to fix all the problems with the 3.2.2 update.

OK I just stripped all the vital folders and files from the new download.
I will give this a shot.
There may have been an interruption the last time I tried an upload.

Be back with an update in a bit.
Thanks for your help to this point though
Appreciate you!
