Unsuccessful upgrade to 5
 

2.5 hours has just been wasted trying to upgrade from pp 4.8c to pp 5.0.1.

First off, clicking on 4.8.2 on upgrade.php returned a blank page so I clicked on 4.85 which displayed a page.

I proceded with the 4.8.5 upgrade without a hitch until it started the process of moving files and creating directories. My server kept timing out after 10 minutes (57,000 images). Fortunately the PHP process still ranand completed (I verified that the files moved.). So I hacked my way to the next step my typing in the url for step 3 manually; which completed without a problem.

I deleted the upgrade.php script and proceded to the index page of the gallery in my browser and was dissapointed to see a blank page.

I am at a loss of what to do next. Should I revert to my backup? Is it possible to obtain the last version of PP 4.8.x?

You can't skip an upgrade step. If the 4.82 upgrade isn't working, then we need to resolve that; but that step cannot be skipped.

upgrade.php?upgrade=482

When I ran this, I get the screen that I am suppose to see. You should reupload the upgrade.php script and run it.

Thanks,

I figured out the problem. There appears to be a depenancy on config-int.php (I dont use forum integration) in the upgrade to 4.8.5. As soon as I put the file in place the I was able to upgrade from 4.8 to 4.8.5 and then on to 5.0.1.


Thanks

Glad to hear.
