gav240z Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Hi there, I'm having issues upgrading to the latest version of Invision Power. Here is what I see: Step 1. Step 2. If I try the Fix Automatically option it times out. (500 error on server) Step 3. I ran all these SQL commands via phpMyAdmin manually last night. (sequentially) However I'm still running into the same problem and cannot get past this prompt. Any ideas as to what might be wrong? Regards, Gavin.

When you ran those sql queries, did you encounter any issues? What version are you upgrading from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Check that you dont have anything showing in the support area of your admin CP before you start an upgrade. I suspect its not set as utf8mb4 on your database gav240z 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Version 4.7.12 Only issue I had was the log tables couldn't be found - which you can see in the support panel as a message also (refer screenshot).

However it sounds like this is now a requirement? Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
