Soooooo guys... I'm happy now. Short step list of what I did to finally use a working installation of 5.0.0 Beta 4. 1. fresh installation of 4.7.19 (without existing data) 2. conversion of data from the production environment to the new fresh installation environment. 3. standard procedure to upgrade from 4.7.19 to 5.0.0 Beta4. Exchange all files as supplied and then start domain.tld/admin/upgrade. Lo and behold, everything works perfectly and without any error messages. Now it's time to get down to business.

I had already tested it before with 4.7.18. I had the same result here. Perhaps an application is interfering in the background, even if it has been “deactivated”. Therefore, my plan would be to install a fresh installation with 4.7.19 after the release, migrate the data from the database once, and then perform another upgrade based on the fresh installation (without applications and plug-ins).

ok i'll give up... will try the last chance. Install a fresh 4.7.19 instance. Convert the productive site to the demo site, without any apps and so on, migrate the User, Forums... and so on, and try to upgrade again.

I have checked twice. All files were transferred according to Filezilla. Without any problems. However, the hottopics.php file is also not included in the v5 upgrade

After a second try i got the following message and this one on my start page

I'll try it again... 🙂

Hey Guys. Who of you can tell me the easiest way to upgrade from 4.7.18 in a short step-by-step list? I have tried to upgrade every time from beta 1 to beta 4 (v5). I go and copy all the new files into my old 4.7.18 environment. Then I start domain.tld/admin/upgrade and let the upgrader update everything once. After that, my start page is never accessible. I always get errors. For example this one A clean installation is not the problem, but currently the Converter isn't ready Is it necessary to uninstall all modules and applications before?

Will the converter still run in the beta phase? I plan to start from scratch and only import the relevant content.

ah okay, then i missed the information.

After changing the code from Line 67: public function execute() to Line 67: public function execute() :void it seems that it works. After clicking on "Start new conversion" i got this message. Fatal error: Declaration of IPS\convert\modules\admin\manage\create::execute() must be compatible with IPS\Dispatcher\Controller::execute(): void in /var/www/vhosts/xxx/xxx/applications/convert/modules/admin/manage/create.php on line 69 Then i changed here this Line 69: public function execute() to Line 69: public function execute() :void and now i got this message Fatal error: Cannot declare class IPS\convert\Software\Core\Xenforo because the name is already in use in /var/www/vhosts/xxx/xxx/applications/convert/sources/Software/Core/Xenforo.php on line 59 So for now, i stop to try it by myself. 🙂

php Version 8.3.12

I've switched both Licenses long time ago, and my Communities works.

Biiiiig Thanks to you @Matt and the whole team. You've spend so much time last year... I'll check the upgrade for my community tonight (German Time) 😉
