Upgrade stops at confirm plugin check

Upgrade stops at confirm plugin check

Good day,

I am currently upgrading from 1.9.18 to 2.0.9 (with the aim to further upgrade to 2.2.3). However when it reaches the page http://(moodlepath)/admin/index.php?confirmupgrade=1&confirmrelease=1&confirmplugincheck=1 it works for  a really long time and nothing comes up on the page. If I try to reload the page, the message "Site is being upgraded, please retry later. " Any thoughts on this problem?

Switch on debugging. There's various ways to do this but personally I would...

* roll your own config.php for Moodle 2 by copying config-dist.php to config.php.
* Transfer the relevent database etc. values from your 1.9 config.php to the new file
* Scroll down to section 8 and uncomment the debugging stuff as required.

The 'please try later' thing is a bit odd - have you definitely got a reliable connection to your server? You could also try the command line upgrade (assuming this is the web based one)

Hello,

a similar error appeared while installing moodle 2.2.2+ on my debian web server, and the same again after a new so far error-free installation with a fresh 2.2.3+ download:

when plugincheck came to the course overview plugin, it left a blank page.

switching on debugging result:

Warning: require_once(HTML/QuickForm.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [...]/html/moodle/lib/formslib.php on line 43 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'HTML/QuickForm.php' (include_path='.') in [...]/html/moodle/lib/formslib.php on line 43

Any guess how this happened and what to do now?

Found that file at 'pear/HTML/QuickForm.php' and put absolute paths in some require_once calls, but that only helped through the plugin check and didn't get moodle to work.

Thanks for every answer...

I Often get the same issue. I simply just wait and refresh the page every so often.

 

After a while it carries on fine. This happens a few times during the

It does complete ok for me but can take a while to run through

OK, here is what I have found to work:

"pear search DHTMLRules" produces the following:


Retrieving data...0%
Matched packages, channel pear.php.net:
=======================================
Package                            Stable/(Latest) Local
HTML_QuickForm_DHTMLRulesTableless 0.3.3 (beta)          DHTML replacement for the standard JavaScript alert window for client-side
                                                           validation using the tableless renderer

Then, "pear install HTML_QuickForm_DHTMLRulesTableless" gets me the following hint:

Failed to download pear/HTML_QuickForm_DHTMLRulesTableless within preferred state "stable", latest release is version 0.3.3, stability "beta", use "channel://pear.php.net/HTML_QuickForm_DHTMLRulesTableless-0.3.3" to install
install failed

Still following the bread crumps listed above, I tried "pear install channel://pear.php.net/HTML_QuickForm_DHTMLRulesTableless-0.3.3" and found:

Failed to download pear/HTML_QuickForm_Renderer_Tableless within preferred state "stable", latest release is version 0.6.2, stability "beta", use "channel://pear.php.net/HTML_QuickForm_Renderer_Tableless-0.6.2" to install

pear/HTML_QuickForm_DHTMLRulesTableless can optionally use package "pear/HTML_QuickForm_Controller" (version >= 1.0.7)
No valid packages found
install failed

The successful sequence of Pear install commands is:

"pear install channel://pear.php.net/HTML_QuickForm_Renderer_Tableless-0.6.2" with these results:

then

"pear install channel://pear.php.net/HTML_QuickForm_DHTMLRulesTableless-0.3.3" got me the following:
