Attempting to upgrade my board from 1.4.10 to 1.5.0RC2
after upload the files it show me:

The board is currently waiting to be upgraded. Please complete the upgrade.

but the link to complete the upgrade give me:

The requested page could not be found.

Is the first time I have a problem upgrading.

I'm now re-uploading the upgrade package. any idea?
Thanks!

Which URL are you being taken to when you click "Please complete the upgrade"?

The correct URL you want to end up at is /install/index.php?upgrade/ so you may want to try manually navigating there.

EDIT: Is your /install/ directory missing?

Hello Chris, yes, the url is correct myboard/install/index.php
I've checked and the install directory is there, everything looks normal.
I'm re-uploading the upgrade package again now.

If it's there, make sure it's appropriately readable.

It seems to be the install "app" which resides in the install directory is being completely ignored and therefore XF is assuming that install is some sort of route it should be trying to load in the forum.

mm... weird. I've re-uploaded the files, checked the install folder permissions, everything looks normal and I'm still seeing The requested page could not be found.
Chris, can I open a ticket / pm and give you access to the server and admin access to take a look?
Before try to upgrade I've saved everything in a backup. so I'm just testing.

 

[Chris D]

Hi, yes submit a ticket and we'll take a look. Please include Admin CP and FTP log in details.

 

[rafass]

Done. Appreciate your help!

 

[Chris D]

Just for reference, this looks to have been a dodgy .htaccess file in the install directory.
