503 Service Unavailable This forum is down for maintenance.

Misiek

Hey,
Today I updated my Flarum from v0.1.0-beta.6 to v0.1.0-beta.7.1 (https://discuss.flarum.org/d/11686-problem-with-update-from-v0-1-0-beta-6-to-v0-1-0-beta-7-1-with-composer) but now I got error (503 Service Unavailable). I tried to enter my database password to update Flarum in flarum/adminbut the page only refreshed, and the message remained with error 503 (password is correct).
I also tried:

composer update --prefer-source from https://github.com/flarum/flarum/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#development-setup

php flarum cache:clear

Immediately I will add that I use Filezilla by downloading Flarum files, and then send newer ones.

Try running

php flarum migrate

This or visiting the admin and providing the database password should suffice.

luceos But how can I do this? My hosting doesn't support SSH :/

Using Windows cmd I got:

C:\PimpaTO>php flarum migrate

Pollux

Misiek But how can I do this? My hosting doesn't support SSH :/

Frankly, the easiest way is to look for one who does.

Find some inspiration here and here.

Misiek

Pollux I know that there are other hosting plans, but I have my own in which I have several websites. I would not like to give up because it offers very good conditions for free ?

Pollux

Misiek so do you have any ideas how to fix it? :/

Fix what? I don't know that anything is broken.

What you are essentially asking is: I want to drive a Porsche 911, how can I make it use diesel fuel?

If your local gas station only sells diesel you may have a problem with your Porsche, but there is no way Porsche can 'fix' that. Even if Porsche had announced a 911 diesel at some time in the future there is no point in 'fixing' your problem now, at least not for Porsche. Wait for the 911 diesel or swap the engine yourself. If you want to choose the latter option, you should bring the experience to do so.

Coming back to Flarum and composer:

Flarum has been built around composer, and that for a good reason. You may circumvent that requirement during installation by e.g. installing Flarum locally and transfering the files per FTP to your shared hosting. But if you want to update your installation composer becomes essential again to sort out the various dependencies of the components Flarum is made of.

The makers of Flarum expressed their intention to develop a version of Flarum where this dependency management by composer is built into the software. This however does not have the highest priority during the beta stadium of this software.

PS: If you still want to swap the engine and don't lack the knowledge to do that, you may try to safe a dump of your database, reinstall the whole forum and then insert the contents of your database dump back into the new installation. As long as the database structure doesn't change, this might work. But I've never done that.

My advice is still the one I gave here: Pollux

Misiek

@luceos so do you have any ideas how to fix it? :/

Misiek

Pollux Ok, I understand that the Pockethold - A Web based Installer package would not be able to do it either?
Possibly I will try to make a copy and try to move Flarum.

clarkwinkelmann Ok, maybe I will try in the free moment ?

You could also clone (do a manual backup and restore it on another host) your beta6 locally or on another server with SSH access, do the update there including running composer commands if necessary and upload it back (Flarum files and database) to the original server.

Tip to save time: the "backup" doesn't need to contain the vendor folder, as you can run composer install to re-create those files if you have all the other files of the flarum install backed up ?
