whmcs upgrade
Hi,
I upgraded whmcs recently to the latest stable update 7.1 and initially i couldn't update via autmatic update option in whmcs , I have tried manual update by downloading the package .
I there anyone else faced this situation, just to know if this need to be noticed by whmcs guys

Did you get any errors? What happened when you tried to update?
You know having a 7 opened threads to 10 comment ratio is not doing you any favors in getting potential buyers to want to try your service right?
We have nothing to do with this
yes . The automatic updation got failed , but the error was related to permission but giving 777 permission is not the right way. Might be a server end issue if any of you guys hasn't faced it.
Dude, I believe in experience and the right moment . when the right time comes the world will be with us .
Your signature is annoying.
Thanks for noting it down. I forgot about that.
Did you contact their support ?
I have contacted their support and they tell the issue is with my servers.
Anyway i fixed the issue by changing the file permission of /vendor/whmcs/whmcs directory to 777. Now the whmcs updated to 7.1.1 via automatic update option.
Cool 777. Its casino time for hackers.
Not necessarily a huge security issue unless someone has access to his server in the first place or if he's on shared hosting.
edit: don't want to sound like a security expert on this so please do your own research
I've just had a case report opened because of the errors I faced with WHMCS;
CORE-10844
The eventually worked out what was wrong and got it working
How did you get on? Do you have a development license from WHMCS? If not, get one - they're free and allow you to run a private test / development WHMCS instance running. This instantly lets you rule out server-specific configuration issues (like firewalls, global permissions, PHP config etc).
