Posted October 3, 20204 yr Community Expert Hello, the subject is my question, does the upgradescript turn all extensions off during upgrade or do i have to do that manually before upgrading starts? And, if this goes automatically does the upgrader switch them all on at the end or do i have to check each extension if it works OK within the upgraded board ( i hope it works like this)? Please let me know, thanks! Edited October 3, 20204 yr by Jheroen

October 3, 20204 yr The upgrade process does disable all your plugins and apps automatically...I know it did to mine. I was then able to upgrade each plugin and app as needed and re-enable them.
October 4, 20204 yr Author Community Expert Alright, thanks... Assume that i have upgraded and i enable an extension that isn't compatible and the back and frontends are down (php error etc) how can i disable that extension in a file or database to have the board running again?
October 5, 20204 yr We disable all customizations going from 4.4 -> 4.5 because they are generally not immediately compatible. We do not automatically disable customizations normally during upgrades (i.e. they won't be disabled during point releases in 4.5).

November 29, 20204 yr Author Community Expert Hi again! Say the extension which was disabled during upgrade > upgrade is done and i try if the extension still works. If i switch it on and the site gets into hard error (unreachable also backend) how can i disable that extension from database or in file settings?
November 30, 20204 yr Add a file constants.php starting with "<?php" (if it doesn't already exist) and then add this new line to it: define( 'RECOVERY_MODE', true ); Get into the ACP, disable whatever you need to disable, and then remove the line from the constants.php afterwards.
