thirty bees migration module questions - FAILURE - HELP ! (SOLVED)

[Petter]

I'm trying to upgrade a site from Prestashop 1.6.1.7 to Thirt bees using the thirty bees migration module, and when doing so, I get the following errors:

thirty bees test suite passing

Test 'ImgDir': File /var/www/xxx/img/bg_bt.gif is not writable.
Test 'ModuleDir': File /var/www/xxx/modules/report.html is not writable.
Test 'MailsDir': File /var/www/xxx/mails/en/forward_msg.txt is not writable.
Test 'Zip': fail

 

So, today, the owner and grout of these folders is www-data   - what will be the correct permissions for these folders, and should they changed back after upgrading ?

Test 'Zip': fail ?  How to correct ?

- migration modules is not complaining about owner/group, but about permissions. Check these files, and make them writeable.

- zip - your php server is missing zip extension. https://anto.online/code/how-to-enable-ziparchive-for-php/

[Petter]

sudo apt-get install php7.0-zip

sudo service nginx restart
 

 

Will enable php7.4 when upgrade is done,..,

It was also a lot of other folders that missed write permissions, but the upgrade module did not warn about these first, they showed up when starting the upgrade process, so the upgrade process aborted several times and I had to change to write permissions on several folders before the upgrades continued.  I choose to do backup of the images also, so the backup progress takes long time, but the progress is ongoing now.

To have the possibility to revert if this process fails, I did before starting make a full Clonezilla image of the server so it can be reverted quickly if I get serious problems under ways,,,

The problem could be a permission problem ? - but the upgrader found some permission problems when starting the upgrade, all these was fixed so the upgrade could continue. After a short while, even more permission problems ( not detected by the upgrader) occurred and the upgrading was aborted and had to be restarted - these permissions was fixed and the upgrade could continue.  Now,the upgrade crashed just before finished, and the restore operation failed.,,,

And now it's not possible to login to the site, only ting that works is the "We'll be back soon."   site in maintance mode,,,

Looks like the database migration completed properly. That's a good thing. You can download thirtybees zip and unzip it to your store. Don't forget to remove install directory, and rename admin directory. That should put you into working state. Then install core updater module, and perform clean update to 1.1.0 (or preferably to 1.1.x).

Before starting the migration, I used CloneZilla to make a mirror of the hard drive so it was easy to revert and start from the beginning.

This time I will do all testing on a separate server and move to the live site when finished avoiding downtime for the website.

It seemed that all files in the root folder of the website was owned by root and not www-data.

It is clear that the thirty bees migration module does not a proper job to check permissions before if gives "green light" to start the migration.

I have now done:

Before starting for the second time, I did change ownership of all files and directories to www-data 

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/myshop 
and then:
 

find . -type f -exec chmod 0644 {} +

find . -type d -exec chmod 0755 {} +

After doing the above, the migration was sucessfull.

Good day. I recently started learning C #. I can already do some things. I decided to write a program that will prompt the user to guess the number. Need c# assignment help with this program. The program starts in principle. It seems to me that I have not confused anything here. Everything should work. But after starting the program, an error appears. Please advise who I can contact to show my program and fix bugs. Thank you all in advance.
