Title: VM manual database update
Post by: razor7 on April 25, 2023, 17:00:10 PM
Hi! Mi site is hosted on a Hostgator shared server, the issue is that if I try to update VM on that box the update fails throwing a timeout. The same happens if I enable DB tools and try to Install or if necessary update tables. Another issue is that the VM admin menu get some strings unstraslated but this happens only if I'm not currently on VM admin interface.

I have to mention that the issue only happens on my Hostgator hosting and not in my local stagging server

Is there a way to figure out what table updates are needed from VM vX to VM vX+1?

Forget about the missing translations, it seems as the installation failed, it failed also to copy lang files to joomla language folder

one solution is to backup your site, install it locally, update it - then ftp the site back up.

Or loose rubbish hosts like Hostgator...
