      VaultWiki Upgrade from Lite to Full Current - Many Issues

      I have been trying to upgrade VaultWiki. Originally had the Lite version installed and the documentation said I could just upload the premium files over the Lite ones. The Wiki was running well on the Lite version.

      Uploaded via FTP and ran upgrade script. It went through its many step process but some steps paused.
      It would say something like "upgrading article data" but never complete. I was watching CPU load via Shell and it wasnt do anything. The browser wasnt showing any activity. It was like it had finished whatever it was going to do.
      Once I left it for a long time, I just changed the step=1 to Step=2 and it continued.
      However, once it reached:
      /vault/install/finalupgrade.php?step=1

      It white screened. No PHP error, nothing. It killed the forums as a whole too even though I disabled the plugin before starting the upgraded as per the manual. I couldnt even get into AdminCP in order to look at it. I had to use VB's "define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true); " to get the forums running again.

      I went to Uninstall VaultWiki via the Plugins/Products mangagement. It says "Do you want to uninstall". I say Yes but then it presents an EMPTY screen. Not a white screen, but the VBAdmin area with the links down the left, the dark blue background on the right as if there should be some text there, but there isnt any text and the script isnt doing anything.

      Additionally, even though the plugin is disabled, the AdminCP Home screen says:

      Administrator Attention Required
      Could not find phrase 'vault_changes_lite'.

      Administrator Attention Required
      Could not find phrase 'vault_changes_xp300b1'.

      Administrator Attention Required
      Could not find phrase 'vault_changes_p300b4'.

      Administrator Attention Required
      Could not find phrase 'vault_changes_300rc2'.

      Administrator Attention Required
      Could not find phrase 'vault_changes_300'.

      Administrator Attention Required
      Could not find phrase 'vault_changes_301'.

      vBulletin shows these "Administrator Attention required" phrases in the AdminCP even if the associated product is disabled. The phrases would be missing because you have not yet reached the phrases step in the install file. Sounds like one of the steps may have timed out, and then the product was enabled without it completing. Now that the product is disabled, try continuing finalupgrade.php from step 1 again.

      Also if you still have problems, mention what version of vBulletin you are on so I can try to duplicate the problem. Do you have a mod installed called "Plugin FileSystem"? If there is a new version of that mod, VaultWiki might not be compatible with it, so let me know.

      Made sure the vault plugin/product was disabled.
      Ran http://www.xxxx.com/forums/vault/ins...ade.php?step=1 again.
      Did step 1 fine but then step 2 white screened.
      Had to use define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true); to get back into the admin CP
      Went into products and vault was enabled again.
      While it was enabled, I looked at namespaces and it was empty. It used to have a forum chosen for this location. When I tried to install the lite version of the plugin for the first time I got the white screen as well and you said I needed to specify a forum. I did this, was running great, went for the full version, did the upgrade script and here we are again.

      Running 3.8.6 Patch Level 1. Not running Plugin Filesystem

      With DISABLE_HOOKS set to true:
      1. Finish the upgrade process.
      2. Go to Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager, and find the VaultWiki plugin for hook "parse_templates". Disable this plugin. If there are 2 parse_templates plugins, then you somehow got two copies of VaultWiki installed at once and I'll need admin access to fix this.
      3. DISABLE_HOOKS to false.
      4. Look at the namespaces and make sure the forum is selected.
      5. For Namespace Functions, make sure Default namespace is selected and click "Update Functions" even if it is.
      6. Re-enable the plugin you disabled in step 2.


      Does this eliminate the white screen? If not, then something else may be at play here and I would need admin access to investigate further. You can PM me if it comes to this.

      While I was waiting, I managed to get it to uninstall via the adminCP. Reuploaded all of the files and ran the install script (didnt care about the data that was already there). Seems to be all good now. Still looking around. Thank you for your help.

      Successfully upgraded a test site from 3.0.8 Lite to 3.0.9 full. Site is still online with no problems, so I'm going to assume this was a fluke and close this issue.
