XF 1.4 How long does it take to upgrade from 1.2.5 to 1.4.3

[isma]

I am trying to upgrade from 1.2.5 to 1.4.3 and would like to know aprox. how much it takes.

At this moment I am seeing a message on my screen saying "Upgrading... 1.3.0 Alpha, Step 18 Loading... but nothing happens since last 8 minutes now.

Is it normal?

Thank you!

It is all dependent on how large your forum is, and what changes were made. If you have a larger forum, patience will be required when there are changes to the post table and such.

How large is your forum?

There are some table alters involved going from 1.2.5 to 1.4.3.

My add ons have been desabled before the upgrading.

Your forum will take longer to upgrade due to the table alters.

Step 18 involves an alter to the thread table and step 19 the post table.

It should complete the step(s) eventually.

Is it necessary to refresh the browser?

Step 18 is still on my screen.

I would note that with the forum your size, it should have recommended the CLI upgrade. In the web upgrade, with a long alter, it's possible the browser may have timed out and you'll need to refresh. The CLI upgrade doesn't have that limit.

It seems it moves on...
