Got a 403 forbidden error when upgrading to latest Invision Community

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

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.

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.

Once I sort out this firewall issue (which is what it sounds like), should I be concerned if the upgrade wasn't run successfully (even though it reached completion) after I hit refresh at the 403 error that appeared during the upgrade process?

Is there a way to confirm the upgrade was successful?
