where can i remove this phpbb_statistics_online

It's a database table so deleting it from the database is the logical step.
However there may be extra fields in the config table related to that extension so these would also have to be deleted.
And: I don't know the extension so you need to check whether there are other (new?) tables involved.
Another thing: IMPORTANT: before deleting anything from the database, take a database backup to make sure you can restore anything wrongly deleted.

Maybe it was this extension:
viewtopic.php?t=2258476

That almost implies you used a 1-click installation for your board, in which case your host would be the place to seek support.

If you have access to phpMyAdmin it's just a matter of selecting the table and removing it (and in the config_table checking whether there are new fields specific to the extension and removing those).

Can I let it like this and when I want to save the backup I exclude from the list?

Yes, but it's clutter and even with a new version of the extension (in the doubtful case it will be continued or taken over in the future) you'll probably have to manipulate that table in one way or another ... so [I'll be blunt] it's about time you had a look at the Knowledge Base (it contains a number of entries with solutions to various problems and includes basic instructions regarding the use of phpMyAdmin for selected cases.

Is it an option to restore your 3.1 board and redo the upgrade (following the instructions in Upgrading from 3.1 to 3.3?


BTW there is an unofficial STK for 3.1. You might consider using that to clean the 3.1 database before upgrading.

Yes

What version of the style, phpbb and style versions have to match.

sorry for late ... but my version 3.1.11 can works with php 7.3 ?
because now The minimum PHP version available is 7.3 on shared hosting.

[janus_zonstraal]

Do you see errors?

phpBB 3.1.11 can only run with php versions between php 5.3.3 and php 7.0.

phpBB 3.1.11 can only run with php versions between php 5.3.3 and php 7.0.

In order to ensure compatibility with PHP 8 while using the OAuth login, we have decided to increase the minimum required PHP version to PHP 7.2.

That’s stated in the 3.1.11 announcement topic.
Edit: The minimum version is 7.2 up to 8.0 you can find that info in the composer.json : "php": "^7.2 || ^8.0.0",
And to answer the question of the OP, you should be fine.

Code: Select all

PHP 5.3.3+ and PHP < 7.0 with support for the database you intend to use.

That's from phpbb 3.1.11 docs. The tests I've made:

While trying to install the version with php 7.1, 7.2, 7.3.




I could only install it while using php below 7.0, in my case php 5.6. After installed it, tried to run it with php 7.2 or php 7.3 and the results:

I don't think that's usable.

You are right I thought about 3.3.11 for some reason. Maybe the topic title confused me.

the conclusion is not possible !!!!
