I've been seeing people talk about the errors they're getting while upgrading to 4.8.4, but I haven't seen any related to 4.6.2. I have tried twice to upgrade my site to the newest version of DNN. The first time was back in May. I tried to upgrade to 4.8.3 and when I did (by simply upzipping the UPGRADE file to over my portal directory) I received an error after the database upgrade had completed.
Thankfully I had a backup of everything and was able to fix my install.
I waited and saw that 4.8.4 had come out. I was thinking that perhaps there was something wrong with the upgrade procedures before.
Anyway, I attempted the upgrade from 4.6.2 to 4.8.4 today.
I received a Server Error with "Runtime" as the description. I could not even get to the install step to upgrade my database.
I have since restored everything to the way it was, but I need help figuring out why I would get this error.
Any ideas?
I looked through my Server's events and found the following error repeatedly after I had attempted the upgrade:
