Current version not available in install script 1.7.3.1 -> 1.7.4

[Arthur Mullard]

I'm upgrading from 1.7.3.1 to 1.7.4

having unpacked 1.7.4 and following the installation instruction:

"5. Go to <your_feng>/public/upgrade in your browser and choose to upgrade from your current version to 1.7"

but my current version 1.7.3.1 iis not listed for me to select. Its defauting to 1.1 and give me drop down option up to 1.6.2

Any suggestions? Is this normal? What cuurent version can I safely select?

If you copy and replace ALL of the files from 1.7.4 for the ones in 1.7.3.1, and you have not done any change at all in the code or database, if you go to public/upgrade, you would just need to select the latest version available, and that is it.
Please take into account that we have just realised that the automatic upgrade seems to have some issues in some environments, but we do not know yet if in all.

Best regards,

Thanks for your reply francisco.

I have replaced all the folders except Config and Upload. I;ve not changed any databas code.

So I'm still fine to go ahead selecting latest (1.6.2) as my current installation?

[franponce87]

After replacing those files (taking into account the permissions as well), you would need to go to public/upgrade and run it.
Have you checked the following page for more information yet?

France,

I tried this with 1.7.2 and this is not correct.  You get database errors on upgrade

[franponce87]

That could be because some queries may have been ran and already performed some changes.. I would advise restoring your data base and then upgrading from 1.7.2 to 1.7.4 MANUALLY, as we have detected an issue with the automatic upgrade to 1.7.4 which we have fixed for the next version (coming soon).

Best regards,
Francisco

I did this, restoring db, and got an error with manual.

[franponce87]

Have you tried upgrading to 1.7.5-rc?

Best regards,
Francisco

[Arthur Mullard]

No, now you have 1.7.5 , I'll give it a go. Cheers.

PS: Francisco & team thank you for your great work!!

Hello Andy, welcome to Feng Office Forums!

You seem to have a problem in the SQL upgrade, not in the code one. May be you should consider doing the SQL parts manually? But in order to do so, you would have to check out which commands have already been ran already and which not.. and run those which have not.

Hi,

had the same error upgrading from 1.7.3.1 to 1.7.4.
The upgrade script Pastafrola... tries to create indexes on some tables that already have them. Deleting all these indexes and then running upgrade script made our day ;-)

Hi Ralf, that is exactly what I meant heh.
There used to be some issues with the upgrade versions from 1.7.3 to 1.7.4.. but 1.7.5 should be fine!
