Error update phpBB 3.3.4 to 3.3.5

Post by ivanc »

I use php version 8.0.10
I tried to update in two ways, but to no avail.
1. https://www.phpbb.com/downloads/3.3/upd ... sion=3.3.4
2. https://www.phpbb.com/support/docs/en/3 ... date_full/

Errors can be seen in the screenshots.
Can anyone help, how do I update.

Use the full package method, but since you started with the automatic update you have to delete the io_lock.lock and the installer file from the store folder.
Than you can use the full package method.
Sorry! My English is bat ;) !!!

Hi @janus_zonstraal
Thank you for the answer.
I deleted the complete 'forum' folder after a failed update and restored my ftp files from phpBB 3.3.4
The forum now works.

There is also a 'io.lock.lock' file in the 'store' folder from June 3, 2021 as well as a 'composer.lock' in the root 'forum' folder from April 27, 2021.

So I now have the situation as before the update.
Can you explain to me how to do the 'full method' update? (perhaps a link to the instructions).

Do you mean these instructions?
https://www.phpbb.com/support/docs/en/3 ... date_full/

btw: I didn't find the 'installer' file, from the 'store' folder?
The install folder has been removed.

Yes, those instructions describe the safest updating procedure (safest in the sense that they are the most simple and probably have the lowest probability of failing).

janus was referring to the install_config.php in /store (only present after an install, update or upgrade procedure). It's not always there.

see Minor Updates Within 3.3.x
Important

If you have previously abandoned an update attempt to try a different method, you will need to remove the following files from the server:

store/install_config.php
store/io_lock.lock
The word update is used in its general meaning and refers to both updates or upgrades.

composer_lock in the root is a required php file (the date suggests it's from your 3.3.4 installation) and will be replaced by an updated version when updating (just as almost the whole set of phpBB files).

Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.
