Server Error unable to upgrade to 4.1.4

Post by muddauber » Tue Jun 14, 2022 4:55 pm

After backing up my system, I attempted to upgrade.
Unable to update Joomla 4.1.2 to 4.1.4

Get the following error message:
Server Error

Joomla Update encountered a server error when applying the update to your site.

Your site may not have been upgraded completely to the new Joomla version.

and:
404 - RuntimeException
Error fetching page from MediaWiki API: The page you specified doesn't exist.

I do not have mediawiki on this site, I have it on another site on a shared server.

Open administrator/logs/joomla_update.php with a text editor. What does it say?

In Global Configuration, set System / Debug System to Yes and Server / Error Reporting to Maximum. Try the update again - this time the 500 Error should give you an informative stack trace.

In System / Maintenance what does Database say?

The reference to Mediwiki comes from requesting a Help screen that does not exist. You should only see that if you click a Help button. Which one?

I only see:
Server error

Joomla Update encountered a server error when applying the update to your site.

Your site may not have been upgraded completely to the new Joomla version.

last error in debug shows: update - Starting installation of new version.

No help button

404 - RuntimeException

404 - RuntimeException
Error fetching page from MediaWiki API: The page you specified doesn't exist.
That error comes from fetching a Help page, which are all delivered from a MediaWiki sit.

Just what is not working?

Run the Forum Post Assistant and post the public results here. In Global Configuration set Debug System to Yes and Error Reporting to Maximum. When the bug is triggered what does the stack trace say - take a screenshot and post it here.

The FPA has a green button labelled Click Here To Generate Post. Click it. A box appears with YOUR FORUM POST CONTENT at the top. Click the amber button. That is all in the instructions to the left. There are plenty of other examples of FPA posts in these forums. The FPA tells you how long your post will be in bytes. It is plain text.

Open configuration.php and look for public $live_site = ''; yours is not empty. What is in it. Get rid of whatever is in it. Looks like you have numerous out of date extensions. Can you actually login to the Administrator as it is at the moment?

Looks like your getting rid of what is inside $live_site = '' worked for me

I originally changed it so it would be compliant with SEF instructions I got.

Remove Rhuk_milkyway (isn't that from Joomla 1.5...?) and Bluestork (from J 2.5). Don't know why they have been around all this time in your J4 site (or J3 or that matter)... ???

(Mind you, a quick search reveals there are editions of Rhuk_milkyway for J4 out there but I don't know if that's the case here)

@AMurray: this is an old topic (started four months ago) and I'm not sure if it was ever resolved. I'd also make the casual observation that the OP has been reminded several times about using a non-empty value for $live_site: I'm not sure if these reminders have yet filtered their way into the OP's understanding of how to maintain a J! website.

Sozzled, thank you for your feedback regarding my several posts. Please note I did
resolve most those other issues and they were not all caused by the $live_site problem.

viewtopic.php?f=811&t=996563#p3671111 JCE Doesn't show up or display

viewtopic.php?f=811&t=996393#p3670412 Unable to edit articles

viewtopic.php?f=812&t=994375#p3665557 Server Error unable to upgrade to 4.1.4

viewtopic.php?t=992345#p3655076 Update from 4.0.6 to 4.1.0 fails

Either way, thanks again for your patience with me, and for your support of the Joomla community

@ceford Thanks, this solved my update issue as well.

Can you (or anyone) please refer me to an official bug report or similar? The "solution" seems rather strange to me and I would like to know why this is the solution or if there is another way to fix the real issue. Thanks! :)

I found this video: https://www.[youtube].com/watch?v=nCsfJam6DX8
"Leave "$live_site =" Empty in Joomla Configuration File - 🛠 Maintenance Monday Live Stream #040" by Basic Joomla Tutorials

Conclusion: Empty $live_site (should be the default), and only have a value in there if absolutely necessary.

Thank you very much Ceford, that also worked for me.
4.3.0 to 4.3.1

This problem kept bugging for some time and tried various workarounds to get passed it.

Thanks for the update Sozzled. I do have been using Akeeba Backup and filled the field. Learning all the time.
