Hi,

Please navigate to Utilities > Update WHMCS and click "Configure Update Settings"

 

Try selecting the Current Version or Stable Release option and clicking Save Changes.

I had the same issue but when I go to configure update settings I am getting an error:

"An error occurred while communicating with the server. Please try again."

 

Do you know if theres an IP to whitelist in my FW or if something is down on whmcs side atm ?

Please navigate to Utilities > Update WHMCS and click "Configure Update Settings"

Logically, this really should be in the 'setup/settings' menu. One wouldn't expect to have to update the system to get to the update settings.

Hello dimitrifrom31,

 

There are no errors with the servers or IPs to whitelist.

 

Can you please provide a screenshot of the error?

[dimitrifrom31]

Actually Id like to know what's the whmcs update server IP to make sure I got it allowed in my FW.

Here is the screenshot:

What permissions does WHMCS require on the update folder since is should be outside the public directory?

Hi

 

We had the same issue

I got this one:

 

http://prntscr.com/djq599

 

An error occurred that prevented the update from completing successfully.

A fatal error occurred while fetching the update.

Please check to make sure your memory limits and execution time are set to the recommended values.

 

Aaaaaand, now my whole installation is busted.

 

Thanks, guys, for making this update process fool-proof.

 

I have to re-upload all the files all over again to restore this, assuming the database isn't busted in the process as well.
