Update problem
17 May 2007 21:23
Anonymous Hi,

I have got a problem updating Drake v. 0.4.0 to 0.4.1.

Either I choose Remote Update oder Fileupload this Message appears:

Quote:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 512 bytes) in ::/admin/classes/phppatcher.php on line 222


How can I update Drake without uploading the new verison and deleting the old?

Regards,
Siedlerchr

Anonymous If you cannot raise the memory limit and if you do not want to wait for the full patch (which should soon be released through SF.net file download service) you will need to:

1. create a database backup from your Drake CMS v0.4.0
2. copy the content of folders private/downloads/, images/ and any other custom file
3. install Drake CMS v0.4.1
4. restore the database backup file
5. copy back the other files to the previous location

I will modify Drake CMS so that this error wont happen in future updates

It is always a good safety measure to make backups before updating

The full patch will copy full files instead of trying to patch the existing files; this will require less memory for the operation and also allow update of customized Drake CMS versions (although the customizations will be overwritten). You will read more about them on the apposite news.

Anonymous Hi

If you mean the 0.4.1 patch it was posted as per the news item..."Overwrite patch to v0.4.1 released"

The two patches were available from the download area of SF

The News release described how to do a manual update using the overwrite patch.

The patch was released on Thursday, 17 May 2007.

The overwrite patchs for 0.4.0->0.4.1 and 0.4.1->0.4.2 are available Here

If we can help further let us know...

Anonymous Ok, I found the overwrite patch from 0.4.0 to 0.4.1

But there is a "raw" patch from 0.4.1 to 0.4.2..

Is this a difference?

Anonymous Hi

Apply the 0.4.0->0.4.1 overwrite patch first and attempt to carry out the online update to 0.4.2.

If you are unable to complete the update to 0.4.2 using the online update process then you can attempt to carryout the update using the local path option, you will have to download the standard patch and then upload it to a temp directory in your site.

OR go straight to the manual overwrite update process as described, use the update_from_v0.4.1_to_v0.4.2-raw_patch.zip as you would the overwrite patch...

With this update a number of fixes have been implemented in an effort to ensure that the online update process would always be avaiable.

Anonymous I chose the overwrite patch from 0.4.0 to 0.4.1, but I still get the error described in my first post.

You told me, that the overwrite patch will take less memory than the normal patch...

Here is the error which appeared while installing the overwrite patch..

Quote:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 71 bytes) in .../admin/classes/phppatcher.php on line 222

The procedures to use the overwrite patch were detailed in the news item described above and Here.

It does, unfortunately the system you are trying to install on appears to have a very restrictive enviroment

Did you try the install from a Local Path option? It uses slightly less system resources.

Last option is to read the instructions Here on how to carry out a manual update on systems that will not allow other forms of update.

A bit more work unfortunately but at least will preserve your installed data etc from your current install.

Stay with it, there will be a way to get it done, you only have to look at the Official Site here to see that, a very restrictive enviroment.

See how you go with the above, good luck.

No there isn't, I actually chose a different naming (now "raw") hoping that it is more correct.

Sorry for the confusion I generated sad

Well, I think the admin menue is very easy to understand for me, I'm from Germany but I can understand nearly everything.. cool

I will test the installation from the root folder in drake

Now you should get the full archive of v0.4.2 and overwrite (via FTP) all the files. It will work.

I am sorry for all the troubles you got blush

Anonymous You database should be already updated, try to overwrite the files manually.

Hopefully these issues will be gone with the next version
