Mis-uploaded 4.8.9 beta upgrade pack to a wrong site and recovered with the original files, but...

[sychn]

Hello,

I mis-uploaded an upgrade pack to a wrong site, and I recovered with the original files, but when I login to the ACP every time, I got this error page:

If I continued the 'Complete Upgrade', it showed a file check error, but all the files have been recovered with the original ones:

Does anyone know how to fix it？

Thanks.

You cannot rollback to older version of IPS unless you have a backup to the database and files in order to restore them. My suggestion is reupload the beta files and continue the upgrade because it would not harm your site, and once the 4.7.9 is final upgrade your site again. Then in the future make sure you don't do the same mistake again.

As you don't indicate how you recovered, I am going to assume that you just uploaded the PHP files from the prior version.

You need to upload everything, because if you leave a specific .json file from the newer version in place on a restored older version then you get that message.

How do I know? Because I added a new version to the applications\core\data\versions.json file on an existing instalation of 4.7.9 beta 1

And here is the result:

Recover ALL the files, not just the PHP files.

Its also worth noting, if you upgraded completely, you will need to revert the database as well as files

Thanks, m8s. I uploaded the beta version finally.😅
