XF 2.2 Upgrade to 2.2 failing

[Sal Collaziano]

I have a pretty basic installation with only one add-on. I always keep my installations up to date - so I'm upgrading from the most recent version to 2.2. It hangs for a while, then progresses to the next screen without any message and hangs some more, and then gives me this error message. Any idea what could be going wrong? It keeps doing this - and the server isn't going away...

An exception occurred: [XF\Db\Exception] MySQL statement prepare error [2006]: MySQL server has gone away in src/XF/Db/AbstractStatement.php on line 228

What is your wait_timeout and max_allowed_packet?

I'm not quite certain but other installations are upgrading without any issue. Perfectly quick and smooth.

 

[Ozzy47]

Those would be the first things to check.

Well. Thank you. But apparently, 5th times a charm. Or the charm. Or however that saying goes. It worked...

 

[Ozzy47]

It would still be a good idea to check those values though.

I will. What settings do you recommend?
