I just did but it didn't work, because this phpbb/db/migration/data/v31x/v314rc1.php file doesn't exist in the phpBB 3.1.3 to 3.1.4 archive and the update process stop at 104/105 of checked files hence I got an endless loop.

v314rc1, v314rc2 and v314 are all within the archive.

I know, but why does the update stops as soon 104 of 105 files had been checked into an endless loop which I've encounter *countless* of times this late morning. Why?

I just want to know what's causing this update issue.

Seriously, I consider to scrap my current installation and repost everything, which isn't much, and then reinstall the forum with the latest full package.

You should start a support topic explaining exactly what you've done so far.

If you have not changed any core files then use the changed files option. Unzip the version that you need, upload that and the install and vendor folders and then run install/database_update.php - job done.

Yeah I should do that, but TBH I don't think I'll waste my time doing that and like I said reposting my stuff is done less than one hour.

I see 3.1.4 was released, but the topic linked into the acp says "the requested topic doesnt exist"
https://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopi ... &t=2313941

Also.... on https://www.phpbb.com/downloads/ there are no packages to upgrade from RC2 to the stable release. What has happened with the team that deals with releasing them... RC1 and RC2 were released without providing a working download url... The versioncheck for RC2 update took like a day for the team to update...

Why did /includes/functions.php for 3.0.x change from

Code: Select all

        // Attention: only able to redirect within the same domain if $disable_cd_check is false (yourdomain.com -> www.yourdomain.com will not work)
        if (!$disable_cd_check && $url_parts['host'] !== $user->host)
        {
            $url = generate_board_url();
        }

into

? I suspect PHPBB3-13765, but its pull request has far too many code changes. I also do not see how generate_board_url() might produce dangerous output.

It was actually this commit and had to do with tests it would seem.

Use the changed files 3.1.4-RC2 to 3.1.4 option

Use the changed files 3.1.4-RC2 to 3.1.4 option

So, just dump the changed files in the forum? What about the databaseupdate?
There used to be an Automatic update package for RC versions on 3.0.
From 3.1.3 to 3.1.4-RC1 and RC2, i had an Automatic update package. Why is this different

The update packages used to be released on area51. But the linked topic in the acp is dead.

I managed to find the package.......
https://download.phpbb.com/pub/release/ ... _3.1.4.zip

Way to go dev team.... Very organised

*disappointed*

RC update packages need to be downloaded from the package archive, since they were not ment for live usage: https://download.phpbb.com/pub/release/3.1/3.1.4/

No, that's from the security fix.
