Error on update from 8.3.0 to 8.3.1

Permalink
Hi,
I just made a new website using concrete5 (www.orkis.dk).
When I log into the backend, I am recommended to update from ver. 8.3.0 to 8.3.1. But when I hit the link 'Update', I get an error message: "Page not found". Have I missed something setting up the site, or why does this error message pop up?

Hello
if the command line does not scare you, I recommend you to use the handy cgi script
concrete / bin / concrete5 c5: update
it works much better and faster than the web update
in any case, be careful to make a complete backup of your site (files+database) before!

I have read the online documentation on updating. I do have ftp access to my domain. That is what my web host allows, but I guess, it is not quite the same as ssh access to the server. Would it work simply to replace the content of the concrete directory, log in and run the web update? I am used to do something like that with typo3 :-)

Best regards

if your ISP does not allow ssh access (a pity) there are two solutions

- download via FTP your website on your pc AND the mysqlDatabase, install a localhost (which requires installing a local weserver with apache / mysql / php / (AMP), if you are not on linux, WAMP (windows) or MAMP (mac), then do the upgrade locally (either on the command line or via the web tool) and upload your website via FTP and then upload the upgraded database; in any case, you may have to change if you use it the .htaccess path, and to be carefull to empty the cache of your website prior exporting the database

- see with your web host to do it online (as you are used with typo3), in this case you must make sure that you have php 7.0 (or 7.1) that will allow you to gain speed, and that you can unlock the time limit for executing php scripts (most hosts can do this, eg 2-3 times a day just to do this kind of task), this shoud be the best for you I think

and don't forget the backups, first of all!
good luck

Hi peder49,

The Update button on the Welcome screen was broken and is now fixed in 8.3.1.

"Dashboard's Update pages has been moved, and now link is still unchanged and get 404 #6245"
