Feedback from upgrade Prestashop from 1.7.8.11 to 8.2.0

[Barthelemy Bois]

Hello,

Sorry for my bad english...

After lots of trials to upgrade my prestashop from 1.7.8.11 to 8.2.0. I found successfull way. I hope this will be usefull for others.

There is some minor display issues remaining (see below).

 

Here is the different steps for a successuful upgrade. I didn't manage to use One-click upgrade module for this upgrade. I used CLI-command upgrade.

Step 1 : deactivate cash, smarty cache and delete var/cache/* (and Prestashop prerequists for upgrade)

Step 2 : upgrade to 8.0.4

curl -L https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/releases/download/8.0.4/prestashop_8.0.4.zip -o admin5667jgngm/autoupgrade/download/prestashop.zip

curl -L https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/releases/download/8.0.4/prestashop_8.0.4.xml -o admin5667jgngm/autoupgrade/download/prestashop.xml

echo "{\"channel\":\"archive\",\"archive_prestashop\":\"prestashop.zip\",\"archive_num\":\"8.0.4\", \"archive_xml\":\"prestashop.xml\", \"PS_AUTOUP_CHANGE_DEFAULT_THEME\":0, \"skip_backup\": 1}" > modules/autoupgrade/config.json

php modules/autoupgrade/cli-updateconfig.php --from=modules/autoupgrade/config.json --dir=admin5667jgngm

rm -rf var/cache/*

php modules/autoupgrade/cli-upgrade.php --dir=admin5667jgngm

 

After these steps, there were 2 warnings :

WARNING - [WARNING] Migration failed while running the file upgrade-2.3.1.php. Module ps_emailalerts disabled.

WARNING - [WARNING] Migration failed while running the file upgrade-0.3.php. Module blockwishlist disabled.

 

And module manager tab on backoffice was broken.

Let's continue.

Step 3 : upgrade from 8.0.4 to 8.1.7

curl -L https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/releases/download/8.1.7/prestashop_8.1.7.xml -o admin5667jgngm/autoupgrade/download/prestashop.xml

echo "{\"channel\":\"archive\",\"archive_prestashop\":\"prestashop.zip\",\"archive_num\":\"8.1.7\", \"archive_xml\":\"prestashop.xml\", \"PS_AUTOUP_CHANGE_DEFAULT_THEME\":0, \"skip_backup\": 1}" > modules/autoupgrade/config.json

php modules/autoupgrade/cli-updateconfig.php --from=modules/autoupgrade/config.json --dir=admin5667jgngm

rm -rf var/cache/*

php modules/autoupgrade/cli-upgrade.php --dir=admin5667jgngm

 

All right after that but do not access to BO.

Step 4 : upgrade from 8.1.7 to 8.2.0

curl -L https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/releases/download/8.2.0/prestashop_8.2.0.xml -o admin5667jgngm/autoupgrade/download/prestashop.xml

echo "{\"channel\":\"archive\",\"archive_prestashop\":\"prestashop.zip\",\"archive_num\":\"8.2.0\", \"archive_xml\":\"prestashop.xml\", \"PS_AUTOUP_CHANGE_DEFAULT_THEME\":0, \"skip_backup\": 1}" > modules/autoupgrade/config.json

php modules/autoupgrade/cli-updateconfig.php --from=modules/autoupgrade/config.json --dir=admin5667jgngm

rm -rf var/cache/*

php modules/autoupgrade/cli-upgrade.php --dir=admin5667jgngm

 

After that, the file upgrade didn't work.

--> reload the last CLI command :

php modules/autoupgrade/cli-upgrade.php --dir=admin5667jgngm

Step 5 :

Access to BO, activate tiers modules, enjoy 8.2 version of Prestashop.

 

Minor display issues :

There is some minor display issues remaining (see attached pictures) :

- with profil icons on the top right only in some sheets (for example, not in dashboard page but in order page or module manager page)

- with order indicator on order page

 

If anybody have an idea, keep me informed 😉

Have a nice day.

 I tried to rollback to the previous version and it also gives other error, now frontend shows erorr 500 and backend white page.

Did you clear your browser cache and PrestaShop’s cache? If still it persists, inspect CSS or JavaScript conflicts from third-party modules.

Great manual, thank you so much.

Before accessing backoffice, clear var/cache/*

In my case, there was error 500 in my backoffice until I cleared the cache.
