Stuck at "Status: Processing XML, Step 13 of 18" during 5.1.3 upgrade

[Marcin Kalak]

Updating stopped at step 13 and do not want to move on. I waited a long time and repeatedly refreshes the page, but it did not work. Memory limit on page is 128M.

[Mark.B]

What version were you upgrading from?

[Marcin Kalak]

5.1.2

[Mark.B]

Can you please try the upgrade again with the site in debug mode?
https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/debug_mode
In vB5 there are two config files....one in the root, and one in the /core/includes folder.
Needs doing in both places.

The one in the root already has the line it, but set to false, change it to true.
The one in /core/includes has the line commented out, just remove // in front of it.

When you run the upgrade with debug mode enabled, please paste in any error it gives you.

[Marcin Kalak]

During the update did not show errors. The update does not want to finish this step. After entering the main forum page appeared errors:

On the new forum installation also stuck in this step.

[Zachery]

With the exact same error?

[Marcin Kalak]

Fresh installation did not report such errors, but stuck at this step.

[Wayne Luke]

For processing step 13, do this:

1. Rename the /core/install directory to something else.
2. Go into the Admin CP and set "Store CSS in the File System" to No. It is under Settings -> Options -> Style and Language Options.
3. Rename /core/install back to its original name.
4. Rerun the upgrade script.

[Marcin Kalak]

Option AdminCP->Settings->Options->Style & Language Settings->Store CSS Stylesheets as Files? is default set to no. This option all the time was set to no.

[Marcin Kalak]

Option AdminCP->Settings->Options->Style & Language Settings->Store CSS Stylesheets as Files? is set to no. Installation still stuck in step 13.

I'm having the same issue with no errors reported at the upgrade screen, but I have nothing but the regular debug info showing on the main page. I also have the Store CSS Stylesheets as Files set to no.

[Marcin Kalak]

Problem is not solved. Installation still stuck in step 13.

[Mark.B]

I'm assuming it doesn't proceed if refreshed.

Are there any errors showing in the server error logs from around the time it stalled?

[Mark.B]

I'm having the same issue with no errors reported at the upgrade screen, but I have nothing but the regular debug info showing on the main page. I also have the Store CSS Stylesheets as Files set to no.
