i have used those three commands that flarum author gave but it didnt upgrade my flarum !
it just updated symphony like that
here's my composer.json

    KimYunz Sounds like a potential Composer cache issue. Try running composer clear-cache and then going through the upgrade process again.

    I have the same issue. Did you resolve it?
    Thanks

      Th0mC run

      composer why-not flarum/core v0.1.0-beta.12

      Every 3rd party extension mentioned (so none that start with flarum/) should be removed.

      Sorry but will this uninstall all my third party extension? Or do you mean that I need to desactivate all third party extension before to run this (as for the normal upgrade process)?

      Hi all,
      I retry to upgrade and I still have the same issue.
      So I tried composer clear-cache suggested by @tankerkiller125 but know I have another issue:
      each time I try to update or to remove an extension, I have the following error message

      [Composer\Downloader\TransportException]
      The "https://flagrow.io/satis/packages.json" file could not be downloaded (HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error)

      @luceos , result of
      composer why-not flarum/core v0.1.0-beta.12 is

      kilowhat/flarum-ext-mailing 0.1.2 requires flarum/core (>=0.1.0-beta.8 <0.1.0-beta.11)
      flarum/core v0.1.0-beta.12 requires s9e/text-formatter (^ 2.3.6)
      flarum/flarum - does not require s9e/text-formatter (but 1.4.5 is installed)
