Convert 4.0 Database from Beta 1 to Beta 2 UTF8

[Captain Ginns]

I'm stuck in the conversion process when I tried to have the upgrade convert the Beta 1 database to the beta 2 database.  It just sit's there...

I posted this previously, keep refreshing and eventually it will complete.

I installed auto refresh in Firefox and set it to 10 seconds. That worked nicely.

i hope this helps

I saw your previous one but as I said in the post following yours, it kept getting stuck.  I refreshed several hundred times...and I'm not kidding.  The I think you mentioned to  make sure I has Java: but you didn't say where.  so I checked all over and in my Manage Add-ons in Internet, I have all the Java.  So, sorry, I just tried it again and still the same thing. If I press refresh too man times, my Internet explorer freezes.  I have IE 11.

Any other suggestions would be nice if you have the time.

 

Thanks.

I wouldn't bother with a beta 1 upgrade really, we don't always provide upgrade paths on beta's, and it shouldn't be converting charset on a beta1, it should have been installed with utf8 from the start.

Good point.  I'll go ahead and delete that site and install a fresh copy of the Beta 2.  Hopefully my license will handle the test site.  Thanks.  I'll keep you posted.
