How to update an addon when you can't connect to the Community?
Permalink 1 user found helpful
First off I'm behind a government firewall at the moment (I'm advocating they use C5 very strongly) so let's assume it's impossible to do the 'connect to a community' thing, which currently, it certainly is, bringing up the 'failed to get a token, maybe your IP is blacklisted' error (yes PHP ini is checked and php5-curl is installed). The test site is on concrete5.localhost anyway, which isn't ever exactly going to resolve properly outside of this machine.
I need to check an upgrade in one of my plugins (failing during update on db.xml which hasn't been changed) which must work as if it came from the marketplace.
Where do I need to download the new version's zip to in order to make C5 think it just came in from a marketplace update or is this impossible?

1. First, backup your database (you can do this from the dashboard).
2. Download latest version of addon (on this site, go to "My Account", select "licenses" from under the "Transactions" category).
3. Replace old version of addon with new one via FTP.
4. Clear your site's cache.
5. Restore database.
From here, you should now be running the latest version of an addon, assuming the db.xml file was NOT changed between versions.
I hope this helps.
