Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted February 19Feb 19 I started an update and received the below. The update stalled on 9.54% but when I try to access admin panel it takes me back to the install process.What should I do from here please? The error is talking about having manually uploaded files but I didn't do that.File CheckSome source files are not correct for the current version. If you uploaded the files to your server manually, the process may have failed or not completed yet. Download the latest version from your client area and upload the files again in order to continue.Go To Client AreaIf you are sure the files have been uploaded correctly, make sure the permissions are set correctly on them. /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/admin/convertutf8/system/Convert/Convert.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/admin/install/lang.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/admin/upgrade/lang.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/Application.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/api/comments.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/api/events.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/api/reviews.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/extensions/core/ContentRouter/calendar.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/extensions/core/Notifications/Events.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/modules/admin/stats/rsvp.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/modules/front/calendar/event.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/modules/front/calendar/submit.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/applications/calendar/modules/front/calendar/view.php /home/dh_saccb7/mywebsite.com/system/Db/Db.php
February 19Feb 19 You need to upload a fresh set of files from your client area, as you have files that have not been properly updated.

Those files weren't overwritten by the looks of the message that you got. Give the manual upgrade a try instead.
February 19Feb 19 Author You need to upload a fresh set of files from your client area, as you have files that have not been properly updated.Isn't that what the built in update process is meant to do?
February 19Feb 19 It's possible the built-in code couldn't overwrite some files because of permission or ownership issues.I've seen it happen sometimes.

March 19Mar 19 Author Exactly this :)What permissions are they meant to have? For owner permissions it had read and write already. Does it also need execute? Do I need to change group and public permissions?
March 19Mar 19 Its not possible for us to be able to tell you what your own servers permissions need to be there, as we dont administer your server. We can only say that the system itself needs to be able to unpack and overwrite the files/folders in order to work properly.
March 19Mar 19 What permissions are they meant to have? For owner permissions it had read and write already. Does it also need execute? Do I need to change group and public permissions?Typical permissions are 755 for folders and 644 for files.
March 19Mar 19 Author Typical permissions are 755 for folders and 644 for files.From what I've found so far they all have this, so I don't understand why it had a problem overwriting them
March 19Mar 19 It might not be a problem of permissions but ownership. For example, a client had some issues overwriting some files, and after checking I found they were owned by the root account and the "normal" account couldn't overwrite them. A simple chown command through SSH fixed the issue. No idea if you're having the same issue, though. 🤷♂️
