After update from 5.4.1.1 -> 5.4.2

Permalink
Hi everyone

I am experiencing huge problems with a LIVE site after updating from version 5.4.1.1 to version 5.4.2

After update I can not update to the latest stable version (5.4.2.1) even though the site is connected to Marketplace.

Also I can not update extensions after this update. For instance I wanted to update "Designer content" to the current version, but this is not possible.

The last thing I am experiecing is that after the update, when I have a document uploaded to File Manager and later wanting to link this file into the content, so that visitors can download this file.
After the update, users can not download the file, and they see this message instead:
No page could be found at this address.


Has anyone else experienced these problems, then I would like to hear from you with any replies or good ideas :0)

Same problem: When I go to the dashboard and download the 5.4.2.2 update and then run the update it blows up my site. The only thing I get is a white screen. To restore the original 5.4.1.1 version I go into the site.php file and edit the last line using the following help:

If the installation fails, or if you are seeing some errors, simply go to the /websiteroot/config folder and edit the site.php file.
Remove (or comment out by preceding with \\) the line:
<?php define('DIRNAME_APP_UPDATED', 'concrete5.4.2');?>
Then you can delete the folder /websiteroot/updates/concrete5.4.2
from Easy :D

You don't have to delete the folder but your website should be restored once you upload the newly edited site.php file.

I have done this more than a dozen times and the restore function works.
The 5.4.2.2 update however doesn't.

What's strange is that I have updated successfully 2 other websites form 5.4.1.1 to 5.4.2.2 using the dashboard update and they worked fine.

Copying the 5.4.2.2/concrete folder over the top of the existing 5.4.1.1/concrete folder is by far catastrophic if it doesn't work.

Problem fixed. Using my FTP client and comparing localhost copy of website running fine with updates from dashboard. What I found is that there is a folder called Models. The Models folder was in the root folder (not the Models folder under core concrete folder). This folder contained some files that did not appear to be in my localhost folder. I assumed they weren't needed. So I moved them to another temp folder just in case. As soon as I did this and tried to run the upgrade from dashboard it worked perfectly. All other updates worked as intended also. Now all of my sites are running on the latest core.
