Hi Visvanath, I'm also looking at a 4.1 -> 4.5 LTS upgrade (for our Redhat Linux environment).

I already ran into several issues:
- when you have the MFA tool installed in Moodle 4.1, this will give problems with the migration. Moodle 4.5 has the MFA tool included in it's core.
I uninstalled my own version before the upgrade.
- when you have records in the 'assignment' table, the migration will stop with an error
- you must already be using the asynchronous backup / restore feature in Moodle 4.1, or the migration will also stop with an error

So far my issues I found with my first attempt to do a migration with the Moodle 4.5 dev release. To be continued

Any housekeeping tasks that are running in these hours? How is your automated backup process configured (when you use this)?
We have the Moodle cron running every minute, that's advised here on the Moodle forums.

Hi Brendan,

I reported an issue about our backup problem in github, since I uninstalled the plugin no more errors were found in the automated backup process.

Maybe check the processes of the webserver? With status D, it could be hanging and never end, I’ve had this problem in the past and it hang up the complete Moodle server, the cause was the virusscanner on our server.

I sent you a DM, it must be possible to find the cause of this problem, are you on Moodle 4.3 now?
