VM2.0.6 - Live update failure

[SamF]

Hello,

J2.5.4 +VM2.0.4

Trying to live update to 2.0.6, got the following message:

Code Select Expand

Unable to decompress data

Extracting the update package failed. Please try updating the extension manually.


Manual uninstallation of VM 2.0.4 gives the following:

Code Select Expand

me too

I too had the same issue ,


I had a look in the temp file directory , few pieces of junk files after attempting a few times to update.

* I found that each update has a few extra files which is beginning to make the update files bigger and bigger - with some providers the PHP memory is only set to around 2 meg.

* I simply asked for a larger php - which can be done on some servers with changing the php.ini files or access file but for me the Provider ( has restrictions set).

* all I did was ask my provider for  a larger PHP memory and the issues disappeared -  If you run your own online server you wil no thave an issue but I have had this happen on a few sites now -

* just try this - Infact I tested the updates by uploading 2.0.4 and then 2.0.6 -  4 went up perfect so you know the setting are Ok - but 6 timedout with memory issue.
