Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted June 2, 2024Jun 2 Every day for the past few days, I get a notification that 4.7.17 is available. I go the upgrade page, then it tells me I already have the latest version installed - 4.7.16. The first time I did this, I went to the first page of the upgrader, and stopped what I was doing to make some backups and disable some apache modules that I thought might cause issues. This cleared the notification on the forum page, and I could not find a way to restart the upgrade. 24 hours later, the notification reappears, and I tried to upgrade again. I get a error that I am already on the latest version.
June 3, 2024Jun 3 Hi @term2323, To answer your first question, 4.7.17 has not been pulled as it's still listed on the Release Notes. Type in the URL of your community and add `/admin/upgrade` at the end of that URL. Does anything happen? If not, have you tried performing a manual upgrade?
June 3, 2024Jun 3 Author Hi, When I do that, I get this message: There are no applications available to upgrade
June 3, 2024Jun 3 Author I haven't tried a manual upgrade yet. I'd like to figure out why it thinks there is nothing to upgrade first - once I start overwriting files with a ftp client, I'm fully committed and down until I work it out, that is not the preferred way to go.
June 3, 2024Jun 3 Author This is the more specific error message: 1C287/4 You are already running the latest version.
June 3, 2024Jun 3 Community Expert Hello, I would recommend switching to PHP 8.1 and then trying again. If you don't see the upgrade banner you can either click 'check for updates' on the applications page, or the support page has a link to upgrade.
June 4, 2024Jun 4 Author Switched to php 8.1, then I was able to upgrade from the support page. It failed to extract the files by itself, but did provide a handy zip file for me to upload myself, and then completed the upgrade. Is there a certain apache module I have to enable to allow for the auto extraction of files by the upgrader?
June 4, 2024Jun 4 Community Expert Typically this is either a problem with the ZIP module or a problem with file ownership issues.
