Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
OmegaStorm Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 Hi there, So I was running the version before the current public release of Invision Community. I ran the forums upgrade and everything checked out. The only issue was that my cURL version is old. During the forums upgrade & within the first few seconds, I got a 403 forbidden error. I then waited a minute and hit refresh and it continued the upgrade. I have a rather big forum. If the upgrade was able to continue and it says success at the end, is there anything to worry about or check for? Can I do the upgrade again or would that be a waste of time? It could be my IP address suddenly changed during the upgrade as I noticed a red "Your IP address does not match this session" in the Admin CP. Thanks
OmegaStorm Posted June 8, 2023 Author Posted June 8, 2023 to add insult to injury, now suddenly I am unable to create a secure connection with the site. I get a "Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR" via firefox. Any ideas?
OmegaStorm Posted June 8, 2023 Author Posted June 8, 2023 Is there anything about this new Invision Community release that could trigger a server firewall into thinking an exploit/hack is being attempted? Or has there been any reports of this happening? I find it rather curious whenever I run certain actions in the Invision Admin CP that suddenly I'm getting 403 errors which has never happened before.
Randy Calvert Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 Nope. Sounds like your firewall needs tuning however.
Marc Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 There is nothing that has changed no terms of the software itself there. Looking up the error myself, it seems to indicate an issue with creating secure connections to your server, so check things like your certificate, any proxies, if you are using a VPN disconnect from that etc.

Is there a way to confirm the upgrade was successful? Edited June 8, 2023 by OmegaStorm
Marc Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 If its not completed, you would still have the upgrade message. If you dont still have that, then its completed
