netnow Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 I have a working install of 7.8, but some key files did not get upgraded when the upgrade was complete. I still have the install directory, (renamed and chmod 000) . If i rename it back and chmod to 755, is it possible to rerun the upgrade script or otherwise install over top of the working installation? If so a brief explanation of steps would be appreciated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS ChrisD Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Hi @netnow I'm assuming that you just manually upgraded by uploading the V7.8.x files? The install script runs the database upgrade, you can upload a fresh copy of the 7.8 files, then go ahead and run /install again you'll likely get a message stating that the database is already running V7.8.x Can you tell me some of the files that did not get upgraded? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netnow Posted November 6, 2019 Author Share Posted November 6, 2019 The upgrade was run by WHMCS triggered by me in the Utilities menu. Two of the files that I moved from the vendor directory to the working directory were configservers.php and configclients.php (Ithink). Many of the files in the admin directory (config*) show the original install dates (Feb 2019). I can run install from ssh command line? ./install.php thanks for your time, -N 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS ChrisD Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Ah ok, with the Auto Updater it will only bring in files that have been updated so what you have is the expected behaviour, I would recommend running install.php from a browser rather than the command line 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netnow Posted November 6, 2019 Author Share Posted November 6, 2019 I ran /install/install.php and it gave me an error saying I was already at 7.8.3. So I tried adding the ?step=3 and was asked for many of the configuration.php setting (of course) and the cc hash. entered all that and hit continue, but it stopped again saying I am already upgraded. Can I simply download a new copy and replace everything? (keeping db and configuration.php)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS ChrisD Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 @netnow The install script only updates the database, so it does mean you don't need to run the installation script again, simply upload a fresh set of the 7.8.3 release files and you'll be good to go 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netnow Posted November 7, 2019 Author Share Posted November 7, 2019 Thanks again Chris. We now have a fresh shiny install of WHMCS 7.8.3 The only issue we are seeing is that in the main (client) portal page, the links to 'announcements' and 'knowledgebase' and 'Accout -> 'Forgot Password' appear to be missing the .php extension, thus, when you click on them you get a 404 error. Is this a known issue? Any idea where (templates I presume) this can be fixed? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
