XF 2.1 Upgrade from 2.1.6patch to 2.1.7 - Frozen window

[webmasterxl]

I tried to upgrade from 2.1.6 to 2.1.7 and the window is "frozen", i.e. nothing more seems to happen. I already waited for 5 minutes ... (see Screenshot) It has been the "one-click" upgrade in the backend.

What can I do?

use the traditional way.

Do the dots (...) keep being added, even if they are being added slowly?

If the number of dots is increasing then it means the process is continuing.

It shouldn’t be taking that long though so your server might be experiencing some latency either when processing the hashes file or reading/writing the files.

If literally nothing is happening then it might be an issue with the JavaScript and refreshing the page may help, though you may need to keep doing it until the process is finished.

Failing that, as someone suggested, uploading the files manually would work. Once it is done just go straight to the install URL to complete the upgrade.

Thanks for your reply. After 20 minutes without further dots, I used the back-button of the browser and clicked the one-click-upgrader again. Then it worked.
