Upgrade from 2.1.6 to 2.1.8

[martin_bonta]

Hello.

Im trying to upgrade Magento from version 2.1.6 to version 2.1.8.

Im doing it from the admin page. After a while it stops and nothing happens, i waited and when i was sure that it was stuck i kicked at cron with this commands:

php bin/magento setup:cron:run

php bin/magento cron:run

Then it started again but shortly after it stop with the following message:

[2017-08-29 09:44:37] setup-cron.INFO: Job "setup:upgrade {"command":"setup:upgrade"}" has been successfully completed [] []
[2017-08-29 09:44:37] setup-cron.INFO: Job "setup:static:regenerate []" has started [] []

[2017-08-29 09:44:37] setup-cron.ERROR: An error occurred while executing job "setup:maintenance:disable []": Could not complete setup:maintenance:disable [] successfully: Magento maintenance mode was not disabled. It can be disabled from the Magento Backend. [] []

So i discovered that bin/magento was not executable. Changed that and ran bin/magento setup:maintenance:disable.

Since the log file says that it has been succesfully upgraded i thought that everything was fine. But i can not get it running.

Now im out of ideas, any kind person who can point me in the right direction?

Hi @martin_bonta,

If you execute:

bin/magento --version

You'll get your current version. Also, can you execute this one:

bin/magento maintenance:status

You should see something like:

Status: maintenance mode is not active
List of exempt IP-addresses: none

Hello @Damian Culotta

bin/magento --version
Magento CLI version 2.1.6

bin/magento maintenance:status
Status: maintenance mode is not active

No supprice since i did a rollback and fixed so it works again.

I have tried twice to upgrade to 2.1.8 but the same thing happend both times.

What if you run the upgrade to 2.1.7 and then to 2.1.8?

Using this:

composer require magento/product-community-edition 2.1.7 --no-update
composer update

And then

composer require magento/product-community-edition 2.1.8 --no-update
composer update

You can simply upgrade your version using below way,

Go to composer.json file at root,

Replace old version with new version number
"version": "2.1.6"
with
"version": "2.1.8"

Replace old version with new version number
"magento/product-community-edition": "2.1.6"
with
"magento/product-community-edition": "2.1.8"

Run command from root,

composer update

if issue solved,Click Kudos/Accept as solutions.

Hello @Damian Culotta

Im still not able to upgrade, this is what i have done.

First i ran:

bin/magento maintenance:enable
composer require magento/product-community-edition 2.1.7 --no-update
composer update
bin/magento maintenance:disable

So far everything works good, i check some things:

bin/magento --version
Magento CLI version 2.1.7
bin/magento maintenance:status
Status: maintenance mode is not active

 But when i try to enter my website it just says: "There has been an error processing your request"

Hello @Rakesh Jesadiya

I have not tried your solution but i think it will be the same result.

Do i need to run bin/magento setup:install or something after the "Compser update" command?

//Martin

[Rakesh Jesadiya · Accepted solution]

I have just recently upgrade for same using above way.
Just edit comppser.json from root to set latest version of magento version.

Just run composer update command.

After complete,
Run setup:upgrade, deploy command and clear cache.

If issue solved, click kudo/accept as solutions.

Thank you @Rakesh Jesadiya

I have now upgraded to version 2.1.7, maybe i should have gone for 2.1.8 right away.
Anyway, i will upgrade to 2.1.8 now so it will be repetition for me.

@martin_bonta,

If you're getting this message "There has been an error processing your request" it means you're getting a report.

Take a look into /path/to/magento/var/report because is possible you'll find some files with the details of the problem.
