Upgrade timeout

[aerkins]

During the upgrade process - it keeps getting caught at this step - upgrade.php?step=2;debug=1;grade_php?step=1;substep=88

Times out and gives a 'page cannot be displayed' after a long period of processing.

Something's causing the server to spit out weird URLs... The "grade_php?step=1" section shouldn't be there (it should be "upgrade.php?step=2;debug=1;substep=88"). Add this code to upgrade.php, right before $_GET['step'] = (int) @$_GET['step'];:

Code Select Expand

if(isset($_GET['grade_php?step']))
    unset($_GET['grade_php?step']);

That should allow you to upgrade properly.

forgot to mention - upgrading from 1.02 to the beta

anyhow - made the suggested change, and its fixed the url issue but it still gives a 'page cannot be displayed' at substep 88. it stops there every time - just sits there chugging away and then gives a 'page cannot be displayed'

upgrade.php?step=2;maint=1;debug=1;substep=88

How large is your forum (in number of members and posts)?

not that large - 230 members and 18K posts.

having said that - a number of posts are really long (irc/msn chat logs) posted up.

It still shouldn't have any trouble getting through the upgrade process.

Try optimizing all of your tables, and running the upgrade again.  The fact that your URL looked like, "upgrade.php?step=2;debug=1;grade_php?step=1;substep=88" actually means it past that point once already.  Theoretically it culd be removed from upgrade_1-0.sql.
