I upgraded from 7.5.3 to 7.79 to 7.8.4 and then to 7.9.0
The system worked properly for 7.79 and 7.8.4 but the 7.9.0 upgrade failed, pages would not display properly so I rolled my installation back to 7.5.3 from a backup.
Now I am trying to apply the 7.79 and 7.8.4 upgrades but they already show as installed. What changes do I need to make in order to run the upgrade?
I restored the database and copied files back into the folder.
I was able to delete the zip and log files for the previous upgrade from the upgrade/patches folder, however when I do the upload it just doesn’t take. The file uploads and a log is started but can’t continue the wizard as it does not see the file.
Permissions 755 doesn’t mean anything without knowing the ownership, and which user your web server is running under…
Please check your PHP modules, especially zip module.
And then share install.log or upgradeWizard.log, whichever is getting written to at the time of he upgrade. Maybe I can get some clues from there, I don’t know… I’m running out of ideas to try…
If you can’t upgrade PHP, you can look for php_error.log or try to play with display_errors to see if you can get extra information about what’s breaking. Version 5.4 is sensitive to “strict errors” issues with SuiteCRM, there are other threads in this forum with your problem and they’re also using PHP 5.4
ESL While this certainly could be the issue the upgrades from 7.5.x to 7.7.9 and 7.7.9 to 7.8.8 ran properly before. I have requested an upgrade of PHP to 5.5 but I don’t think it is likely to resolve this issue.
