Upgrade script 0.4.9 to 0.5.0 seems not to work

[Hipska]

I'm testing the upgrade script to go from 0.4.9 to 0.5.0, but it seems to hang.
Even if I have no configured tholds, its taking forever to complete without any user feedback.

I want to run queries manually if I know what the DB differences between 0.4.9 and 0.5.0 are, but database.php looks so messy I could not find it out.

Somebody care to help?

There have been no database changes since 0.4.7

Then why is the upgrade script trying to do these changes?

I had the same problem. That was because the upgrade script was unable to find out the correct version of the old plugin (0.4.9) so it was trying to do some changes in the database as if I had 0.4.4.

What we did was to add in file cacti/plugins/thold/includes/database.php after line:

Code: Select all

$oldv = read_config_option('plugin_thold_version');

the line:

Code: Select all

$oldv = '0.4.9';

And the problem solved with this workaround.
