[5.1]update to 5.1.0 beta2 fails

[jschmi102]

Steps to reproduce the issue

Update from 5.1.0 beta1 to 5.1.0 beta2

Expected result

Update should work sucessfully

Actual result

System information (as much as possible)

update.php content after failure:

<?php
defined('_JOOMLA_UPDATE') or die('Restricted access');
$extractionSetup = [
	'security.password' => '8949wO0mG7qpOIXAkcITY6sHnIBcxaH2',
	'setup.sourcefile' => 'c:\myjoomla4/tmp/1289e417-796e-420e-a9bc-15107efb2770',
	'setup.destdir' => 'C:\myjoomla4',];

file permissions (e.g. for update.php or extract.php) are all OK
C:/myjoomla4/tmp contains file denoted by update,php

related to #43100

hi,
I don't think its related to #43100 as results are total different, I fixed the problem by doing folowing;

1. use/copy extract.php from a joomla 5.0.3 system
2. run update with copied file

I could not check the cause/difference of joomla's 5.1.0-beta1 extract.php - but it seems to be very clear that using extract.php of 5.1.0-beta1 caused the problem. What puzzles me is the fact that using a different extract.php file with exactly same content updates joomla without problem.

Updated system to 5.1.0-beta2 works fine and I do not see any problems yet.

hi,
I thought because of file size content was the same, but then I checked with "https://www.textcompare.org/" and found some differences (e.g. at lined 1524, 1551, 1564):

line 1564 - 5.1.0 => if ($this->binStringLength($zipData) < $this->fileHeader->compressed)
line 1564 - 5.0.3 => while ($this->binStringLength($zipData) < $this->fileHeader->compressed)

can anybody clarify?

I tested updating a fresh Joomla 5.1.0 beta 1 site with an update package to 5.1.0 beta2 on windows and it worked fine. Can you give more information to your setup so that we can replicate this?

[jschmi102]

I'm using this system as a joomla testing site. Its brief history is sofar:

• joomla v4.x.x (fresh install)
• joomla v5.01 (successful upgraded from v4.3)
• joomla v5.02 (successful upgraded from v5.0.1)
• joomla v5.03 (successful upgraded from v5.0.2)
• joomla v5.1.0-alpha3 (successful upgraded from v5.0.3)
• joomla v5.1.0-alpha4 (successful upgraded from v5.1.0-alpha3)
• joomla v5.1.0-beta1 (successful upgraded from v5.0.1-alpha4)
• joomla v5.1.0-beta2 (update failed with problem caused by extract.php of joomla v5.1.0-beta1)

I've attached extract.php (as extract.php.txt) of joomla v5.1.0-beta1 from march 4, 2024
extract.php.txt

Would it be possible to get a copy of the site?

[jschmi102]

hi,
no, sorry because of (privacy) information contents cannot do this.
As extract.php from 5.1.0-beta2 is the same as with 5.1.0-beta1 i will see if same problems happen when upgrading to 5.1.0-RC on april, 2. (or if this was just an intermediate problem).

maybe this might help - checked logfile ""joomla.update.php" and found this:

that's an error for the beta1 download 2 weeks ago so should be unrelated to beta2
