Can't upgrade to 5.3.x - Error 500 (memory_limit)

Permalink
Hi Folks,

Beeing on the last 5.3.2 (no previous upgrades) my wish to upgrade becomes a little frustrating, because every attempt to try dies in an error 500. This is caused by memory_limit exception (adodb tries to allocate 50mb(!!!)). Beeing on a commercial hoster with 40mb memory_limit in php-ini which cant't be modified (even not temporarily -- which i tried via htaccess and via ini_set). I'll try to start the upgrade again in the late hours...but don't think this will make my day.

Anyone experienced the same? Any Suggestions?

Yes same here. Any idea how I can execute these updates manually, if they are, and I think they are, MySQL related. Queries could also just be executes one after another instead from a php script right?

But where would they be located because the concrete/tools/updater.php does not help me.
I've gotten a little rusty working with C5's code...

//Edit: Alright mine works now because of something strange. AFter forcing the whole thing it eventually said it was upgraded, but I can't actually remember pressing the upgrade button that time. I pressed it sooo many times though. Now the message bar is gone that I didn't upgrade completely, but how can I be sure everything is working as it should be?

yes, upgrade is converting these !@#$ custom attributes as it goes, so even tho get the memory error, progress has been made..

that means that insane as it sounds, reloading a bunch might just make it work perfectly.

Just starting the process over and over again will eventually be enough to complete the upgrade?

Infact, my upgrade now has finished successfully after reloading about 15-20 times. Since then no specific problems. Did that upgrade in the late hours.
