Can't update self-hosted forum?

[AquilaTempestas]

Hi all! 

Is anyone else having trouble updating their forum via auto updater? Mine just says there are issues with automatic upgrading.

Any idea on how long this will take? I haven't updated my board in over a year.

From which version to which version are you trying to upgrade?

For example, if you are still on a version that uses PHP 7.4, the automatic upgrade won't work because you also need to update PHP to version 8.0/8.1. In this case, you can only proceed with a manual upgrade.

I'm trying to upgrade to 4.7.14 - I'm currently on 4.7.5

My PHP version is 8.0.30.

When I try to update it says "We are aware of an issue with automatic-upgrading, we are working on solving it now."

Ah okay. That's an issue on IPS's side then.

Either wait for IPS to fix the issue, or proceed with a manual upgrade. Considering it's the end of the year, it will most likely take a few days before it's resolved.

Upgrading manually would be the option at present until we can get this resolved. You can do this by uploading a fresh set of files from your client area and then running the upgrade from /admin/upgrade
