console core:update issue using Piwik 2.3

[quba]

Awaited:
Successful update from previous versions to Piwik 2.3 (tried with Piwik 1.12 and Piwik 1.6).

Given:

 $ php console core:update

*** Update ***
    Database Upgrade Required
    Your Piwik database is out-of-date, and must be upgraded before you can continue.
    Piwik database will be upgraded from version 1.12 to the new version 2.3.0.
    The database upgrade process may take a while, so please be patient.

No queries are executed. Other update tasks are also not performed (including migrating superuser from config to the database). There's nothing in error log. Tried on different hosts and configurations. Running same command with --dry-run parameter works OK.
Keywords: update, core

I can confirm this error.
I checked it on clean Piwik instance (used tag 1.12 from github), performed manual instalation.
Then I checked out 2.3.0 tag from github, and tried to run core:update task.
Nothing has happened, no errors were thrown.
Also no errors were found in apache error log.

I tried to reproduce exactly as indicated:-

• installed 1.12
• as expected, piwik_user table does not have "superuser_access" column
• git checkout 2.3.0
• ./console core:update
• after running the command piwik_user table has a superuser_access column.

I cannot reproduce, it is working for me.

If Piwik didn't upgrade properly, when you visit piwik 2.3.0, you see errors and exceptions, because some columns would be missing etc. do you see such errors?

We found out that the problem occurs only when the following command is used:

• php console core:update

but it works fine with this command:

• ./console core:update

In 5e8b3b7: Fixes #5306 Make sure console command works as expected when php console core:update is used instead of ./console core:update
