Auto update joomla 3.3.0 to 3.3.1 not working

Post by tonicarr » Fri Jun 13, 2014 7:34 pm

I am trying to update a site from Joomla 3.3.0 to 3.3.1. You would think it would not have a problem. For some reason nothing happens, the wheel spins and spins and nothing gets updated. I purged the cache thought that might help. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Toni

This is what I have on the php.ini file. It looks like yes. This starts at line 805

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Fopen wrappers ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; Whether to allow the treatment of URLs (like http:// or ftp://) as files.
; http://php.net/allow-url-fopen
allow_url_fopen = On

; Whether to allow include/require to open URLs (like http:// or ftp://) as files.
; http://php.net/allow-url-include
allow_url_include = On

As I mentioned in my original note I did purge the cache. Maybe I will try again on a different computer.

Any other ideas let me know.

Thanks for helping.

Thanks again. There is no error message. It just doesn't seem to connect and the wheel keeps spinning. Upgraded another site and it went really quickly. So obviously something is hanging it up.

also another solution is to make update from extention manager to install the update patch. before you do that dont forget to create a back up of your files and your sql
