When database update is successful, delete the folder named install Make a new database backup\n\nfirst, do NOT upgrade to 3.3 it is still in release candidate stage and should not be used on a live board.you could wait for it to be final but I don't really know when that is going to happen.so, I have found that it usually works better to do the incremental upgrade/update.you will need to update from 3.0.2 to 3.0.14now, on to 3.2you should be done.this seems like a lot but it is pretty straightforward. as long as you do things exactly and in order you will be fine.don't forget to make the database backups before starting and after each upgrade.that way, if it crashed on you you can just restore the last database backup and move on from there.good luck,robert", "keywords": [], "meta_keywords": [""], "tags": [], "authors": [], "publish_date": null, "summary": "", "article_html": "", "meta_description": "", "meta_lang": "en", "meta_favicon": "/favicon.ico", "meta_data": {"resource-type": "document", "distribution": "global", "viewport": "width=device-width", "application-name": "phpBB", "msapplication-tooltip": "phpBB \u2022 Free and Open Source Forum Software", "msapplication-starturl": "/", "msapplication-window": "width=1024;height=768", "msapplication-task": "name=Area51; action-uri=http://area51.phpbb.com/; icon-uri=favicon.ico"}, "canonical_link": "https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=2533941"} |
