hjf288 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 IIRC Disable MySQL strict mode during the upgrade then re-enable afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ77 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 I figured that part out.. and now this thing is STUCK again!!! Table 'admin_mydb.convert_link_posts' doesn't exist /home/admin/web/mysite.org/public_html/forum/applications/convert/setup/upg_101006/upgrade.php::61 ALTER TABLE convert_link_posts CHANGE foreign_id foreign_id VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', ADD INDEX local_lookup(ipb_id,type,app), DROP INDEX foreign_id, ADD INDEX foreign_id (foreign_id(191)), DROP INDEX ipb_id, DROP INDEX `type`, ADD INDEX `type` (`type`), ADD INDEX app (app) This is painful...

SJ77 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 yeah did that. Suggestion was to restore from backup and try again.. which I did and got the same exact error. Site offline now for over an hour. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ77 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 They removed 4.3.6 !!! I can't even go back. This is HORRIFIC.. nightmare stuff. I am really starting to panic!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjf288 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 It would appear you are missing the table? Could try creating it manually. CREATE TABLE `convert_link_posts` ( `link_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `ipb_id` bigint(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, `foreign_id` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `type` varchar(32) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci DEFAULT NULL, `duplicate` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, `app` int(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, PRIMARY KEY (`link_id`), KEY `foreign_id` (`foreign_id`(191)), KEY `local_lookup` (`ipb_id`,`type`,`app`), KEY `type` (`type`), KEY `app` (`app`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restoring from a backup would let you go back. Unless you only backed up your DB and not your files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have many terabytes of files. It's not quite that easy for me. I have all of those but that is a LAST resort. it would take me ALL day to fix it that way I restored the Database backup to start the upgrade process again. But IPS script will only let me resume the upgrade process and not start a new one. How can i start a new upgrade process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJ77 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Wow. this is hands down the worst experience of any update so far. My site has been offline for over 2 hours now and I basically have no idea what to do. Currently working to extract only the files I need to attempt going back to 4.3.6 4.4 is NOT ready in my opinion. Really bad day here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My site has been offline for over 2 hours now and I basically have no idea what to do. I had a similar issue. I tried to restore my database but my site was broke and I couldn't log into admin cp. So I uploaded fresh 4.3.6 files as I always keep packages on my computer, but this still didn't work. I could only get it to work and redo the upgrade process when I uploaded my sites files from two weeks ago (luckily I made a backup of the files, I usually don't). So for some reason, going back to default 4.3.6 files didn't work, I ended up having to delete everything but uploads and reupload my sites backup files to get back into admin cp to rerun the upgrade from scratch I feel your pain it is very stressful when things go wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJ77 Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 Epic disaster!! Problem, after repeated problem happened while trying to upgrade. Let me try to give a brief outline. The install stalled out due to the strict mode bug. Then it failed due to being unable to find a table. At this point it left me with no option to start over, no option to create the table etc, just endless loop of failing site offline stuck in mid upgrade. Fixed step 2 thanks to our hero of the story @RevengeFNF restored DB from back up Started over but this time UNCHECKED the upgrade for the converter since the bug in step 2 seems to be due to the converter The install finished but the site wouldn't load at all. Manage to use some emergency configuration settings to turn off all the plugins etc. Got into the ACP and found several Applications that cause 4.4 to melt down to 500 server errors. disabled them all Support tool found a bunch of stuff in the table that needed updated. Even with ALL applications, plugins and themes turned off several things still did not work. including the activity feed. 500 server error. Screw it.. I have decided to reload all of my files from a back up. Currently 9000 files remaining. and DB already restored. Hopefully it works but as of now, site is STILL off line. I should mention that all the way through I was begging in support tickets for help but mostly was told "restore from back up" SMH 4.4 is an exciting upgrade but for me only IS AN EPIC disaster. ..sorry, IPS I love you guys but this has been a terrible day for me due to 4.4. I am terrified of ever trying to upgrade to this. I hope a lot of these bugs get worked out long before I am forced to move up to this. My fingers are crossed BIG time right now hoping that this restore from back up works. I have been offline for hours. It's sad to think about all the sales I have lost, all the new members I have lost etc etc etc. This is not good for anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the others 99,9% of users, don’t. I upgraded 4 boards (mine and clients) with no problem, via phone (just changed the constant file) and all is working fine. Why didn’t you submit an urgency ticket when the first problem happened? Sometimes it gets worse if you kee trying and trying... you will mess things.

There is no controversy - yes, I see all the improvements in my test site and I appreciate the colossal work of the development team. But the presence of unresolved bugs is more damaging to the image than it helps for the joy of such improvements ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since some weeks you can only choose between normal or low severity in a ticket. The other thing, he has chosen a bad time for upgrading when IPS staff is limited due to their working time. Best time for upgrading a forum is Monday 8.00 a.m. https://www.timeanddate.com/time/zone/usa/lynchburg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
