Hi Nuno,

How long has it been at that step?

If you refresh the page does the migration then allow you to continue?

Did you create a database backup before beginning the migration?

Hi Tony,

Thanks for your reply i was out of town with no access to the internet.

When i refresh the page it does not allow me to continue.

I have a backup off the all site.

I seem to still access to all my data in EE.

Any other ideas do solve this?

Thanks

Nuno

Hi Nuno, could you try reducing the migration steps using this macro and then try the upgrade again?

define( 'EE_MIGRATION_STEP_SIZE', 5);

The middle of your wp-config.php file is a safe spot to add that macro.

Hi Nuno,

The migration freezing like that likely means a fatal error is being thrown.

Is it possible for you to send us a copy of the database so we can run a migration and do some testing?

You could also try enabling WP_Debug on the site before running the migration again to see if any errors are thrown.

If you go to Event Espresso -> Maintenance.

You will find a button to continue the migration which will then allow you to view your events again.

However, one thing to note is the site only has 40MB available to use. This is likely the reason the migrations previously failed, can you first follow the steps here:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP

To increase your WP Memory limit. I would recommending using at least 96M, so adding something like:

define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '96M' );

To your wp-config.php file.

I have created a ticket for some developer feedback on the error message you mentioned.

Do you also have a backup from before you ran the migrations?


nsantossilva

Hi Tony,

yes i have a backup of the full site.
I will wait for more news from you, thanks

Hi Nuno,

In ran the migrations on the database backup you sent previously and found the same problem, we are investigating the cause of this.

However when I continued the migrations on the local site I found no issues when using the State or Country fields. I spoke with the developers over the errors and was advised to check the within esp_question table and ensure that state and country had the correct QST_type of STATE and COUNTRY.

You can see here they do – http://take.ms/FrGUT

Did you increase the memory limit on the site and continue the migrations so that EE would display your events?


nsantossilva

February 20, 2015 at 6:00 am

Hi tony,

OK, i will wait for more answers, yes i increase the memory limit and in most os the options it appears a blank page, as it does when there is a problem in the plugin, you still have access to the site if you want to check. I bit annoying because EE always worked very well

thanks

Hi Nuno,

The migration is still not complete, on checking the Maintenance page Event Espresso has re-enabled full maintenance mode.

If you go to Event Espresso -> Maintenance you can continue the migration – http://take.ms/8FxoK

Once that is complete your events should be visible once again.


nsantossilva

February 20, 2015 at 6:41 am

Ho Toni,

If you press continue it gets stuck and does not finish the migration

Hello again,

When trying to migrate it gets stuck here, https://www.evernote.com/shard/s114/sh/8e5f8f0f-f225-4ca9-9f62-7910e1336b8a/14a1cf46b811fe94cca4e4621080d630 this was my problem and if you refresh the page you have all the options in the plugin, but when you try to accees to the option in most pages it appears a blank page as it does when a plugin have problems.

Thanks

Ah, ok, sorry I misunderstood.

I though it had previously frozen but doing the above had gotten to this point.

Can you check the servers error log and see if any fatal errors are being thrown?

Hi Nuno,

An error log can usually be found by visiting the host’s control panel or by using FTP. If you are not sure where the log file is, you can check with your host and ask for its location.

Hi Nuno,

I’m looking through your site currently.

I’d like to enable WP Debug on the site but set it to log to file rather than to screen, is that ok?

WP_Debug may allow us to see the error that is being thrown but it may not.

We need to know what error is being thrown so we can help troubleshoot this. I can’t find any error logs when viewing through FTP does your host provider display a list of the last X amount of errors on your control panel?

Depending on the host this is various places but if using cPanel there is usually a ‘Logs’ section which will show you the latest errors.

Hello,

I will send you the latest error log

Hi Nuno,

The issue was your site running out of memory. This is the error:

[03-Mar-2015 15:28:17 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes)…

134217728 bytes is roughly 128MB which must have been the limit set by your host.

I added:

define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );

To your PHP config file whilst I had access to your site and that has fixed the problem.

128MB is a little high (256MB even more so) but it also depends on the plugins (and the Theme) in use, Event Espresso has alot of data and so requires more ran than others sometimes, I believe Visual Composer also requires more ram than usual.

Your site is now up and running and the migrations complete, I would recommend running through EE to double check everything is working as normal.

I’m going to set WP_Debug back to false, but leave the 256MB memory limit in place, you can lower this if you prefer.
