I got it done once I cleared my head a bit. Running a social network site and being an owner operator truck driver at the same time is not the easiest tasks to undertake at the same time.
I can confirm with you that the upgradation of website and mobile doesn't relate with each other because they have the different version as well as specific improvements for the new release.
About the routine to upgrade the phpfox, we highly recommend all the users upgrade their site when the new version has been released due to in the new one, it will have new improvements as well as fix the issues in the old one.
Thanks, also some good pointers there. I love comments and love colors. If someone looked at books I read before the internet was commonplace they would swear I was the one who developed color coding of code that is now widely used. My wife has laughed at me for decades on my incessant use of highlighters when I read/study. She thinks it's funny how virtually every line is highlighted. She sees using highlighters (the way most people do) as a method to highlight importance whereas I see using coloration and highlighting as a method of organizing thought.
I did follow the upgrade guide on permissions. It may be that initial clone however had permission issues not directly related to the upgrade permissions.
I initially tried the zip/unzip method similar to what you described but still had issues. I do not understand why but sometimes direct file transfers work better. I have been told that intelligent FTP programs can sometimes better understand when a file needs to be transferred in binary mode, which can have an impact on permissions. My site's are rather large and have tons of user generated content so this of course does have the drawback of elongated file transfer times, which I am in the middle of now. If it however corrects the perceived permission problem then the time lost (while doing other tasks in the meantime) will be more than made up for on the savings used to troubleshoot.
I must also say that as long as you follow the directions in the link, you shouldn't have any issues.
Maybe if they'd add that to the TOP of the documenatation, too, it would be easer to see. But, kudos to PHPFox for finding the issue and adding it to the documentation for mac users.
The cause was I had an old version of phpfox (4.7.1) and it would not allow me to upgrade apps until I upgraded the phpfox version to the latest version. My bad.
i use the curl -s method on cPanel but sometimes depening on php version i get 503 not found errors from cron. i have it at 5 mins maybe that is my issue, but it works once in a while i get an email with an error of page cannot be found but that is one in a while, over all it works. i guess you have to test it.. if you see your cron are showing as they work your good.
cant remeber but with certain php versions i used JohnJr option before and it worked as well cant remember if it with php 7.4 or 7.3 and it worked
but I use: */5 * * * * curl - s https://www.mydomain.com/cron.php?token=283f72hf872gf827gf8234f6g and after a few minutes it works you can see if it works when you log in or out or post something in the feed and check if you got any points. it will update every 10 minutes they way you have it.
Well, after putting it off for a few days, I just successfully upgraded to 4.8.3. The only issue I have detected thus far is that all previous Instant Messaging threads have been deleted. I am not sure if that was intentionally done by the developers, or if it is a bug, or if there is something I am forgetting to do after upgrading. I do know that with some apps, you need to fix their folder permissions after doing an upgrade. I don't recall if that is the case with the Instant Messaging app or not. I'll have to check the installation instructions.
Also, I just noticed I said delete the cache folder...I copied that from another thread. It should be delete what is inside the cache folder...not the folder itself. If you deleted the actually folder then just make a new folder called cache.
