Did you remove mods (if present) from 3.0.11 (specifically database modifications)?

You could try the upgrade again, using the full package set, but before starting that. make sure to remove any install_config.php, io_lock.lock and migrationsxxx from /store, and empty /cache but for index.htm and .htaccess.
If you have a really large database it might avoid timeout upgrading on localhost, even going in stages (>3.0.14) >3.1.12 > 3.2.5

[Komanche]

yes, zero mods, tried also stk db cleaner, it told me it is ok.

DB is around 1.2 GB

deleted everything you wrote, tried again and the same result

Try updating to 3.0.14 first
What's in the phpbb_mods table?

... make sure to remove any install_config.php,...

Starting to doubt, but just in case: perhaps it's config_install.php

[Komanche]

I have no table phpbb_mods, only phpbb_modules.

[Komanche]

uploaded 3.0.14 files to root, tried to install, but http error 500...

[warmweer]

I have no table phpbb_mods, only phpbb_modules.

Oops, sorry about that. Confused with another topic

uploaded 3.0.14 files to root, tried to install, but http error 500...

Did you overwrite your config.php?

[Komanche]

no, still the same as in 3.0.x

[warmweer]

no, still the same as in 3.0.x

Now getting a 403 ?

[Kailey]

I'm not getting a 403 or 500 error code. What part of the upgrade to 3.0.14 are you at? The message below indicates the install directory is still present.

Information
Sorry but this board is currently unavailable.

I have decided to change hosting, so I will be back later. Thanks for help.

[Komanche]

solved, on my favourite hosting it was smooth, just used step-by-step method (3.0.11 -> 3.0.14 -> 3.1.12 -> 3.2.5). Thank you.

komanche, so, in the end, do you think the hosting was the issue or the hosting just made for a better environment to move from 3.0.11 to 3.0.14 etc.??
