Cannot reproduce Infinite redirect in upgrade

[Jeremy]

I had a link open (posts/89/) on my system, and when I finished upload, I decided it wouldn't hurt to just reload and get to the upgrade.. Well, it infinite loop redirects to /install/install/install/etc...

I can't say I follow this. The only silent redirect to the install directory is when the config.php doesn't exist, but you're talking about upgrades so it should exist...?

I think he's saying he uploaded the XF 1.1 files, refreshed the link he was on (/posts/89) hoping to get redirected to the upgrade page, but instead got infinitely redirected to it.

I overwrote the config file, so I didn't have one. But it still didn't take me to the correct location.

There was a config file in the upload package that overwrote your current one?

No. I did a batch upload, so it got deleted, without intending too. The point isn't how I got it to happen, its that it'll go through an infinite loop. I'll do the same on a development server.

 

[robdog]

Just curious, but your batch upload deletes files that are not in the upload?

And this scenario was probably not accounted for. Probably should add that to the list.

Hm... I can't seem to replicate this on a development server... Hate fluke things like this (but it did happen).
