Fixed Error upgrading to XF 2.2.7 Patch 1

[Sim]

Affected version

2.2.5

Tried to run the auto-updater to XF 2.2.7 Patch 1 and received the following errors on several of my sites:

An exception occurred: [Error] Call to undefined method XF\ComposerAutoload::checkPaths() in src/XF.php on line 287

1. XF::registerComposerAutoloadDir() in src/XF/App.php at line 2334
2. XF\App->setupAddOnComposerAutoload() in src/XF/Install/App.php at line 160

I was upgrading from XF 2.2.5, which does not have the XF\ComposerAutoload::checkPaths() method - so there seems to be a quirk with the online upgrader which expects it available?

I will try a manual upgrade now.

Manual upgrade via CLI worked.


Now to fix the other 5 sites

You can try reupload a full distro to your sites.

I wonder if this issue has been fixed with 2.2.8 ? I know the auto upgrader goes through the motions of each version between installed and latest available but I wonder if it'll still choke during the update from 2.2.6 to 2.2.8 ..

Any update? I did see other threads about this but can't find them now :/

Worth noting that this issue didn’t affect people generally so we’d expect it to be fine.

If you run into any issues though just let us know and we can help. Although uploading files the traditional way would probably be fine if the one click process failed.

Thank you for reporting this issue, it has now been resolved. We are aiming to include any changes that have been made in a future XF release (2.2.9).

Change log:

Workaround a potential issue when upgrading from older versions due to new code in newer versions.

There may be a delay before changes are rolled out to the XenForo Community.
