Restoring before upgrade shop

[asg]

Hello,

 

I tried to upgrade my prestashop shop from 1.5.4.1 to 1.5.5.0. Like for many people, everything went wrong and was fucked up (internet server error 500), crashing everywhere with a nice "FastCGI: failed to read from backend server".

 

But before doing this disaster, I saved my BDD and all the file on the server. At this time everything was working perfectly.

 

Problem : I have put back the saved file, removed all table from database, then import the saved database (no problem). I emptied varnia cache from web server. But now I keep getting these fastcgi crash problems ! >.< Some pages work (back office login), then after loging in, boom crash.

 

So the new versions is broken and the old version is also broken but when I saved it everything was working perfectly !

 

There, I need big help. Thanks you.

Did you try with another browser ? I had the same problem... but only with firefox. Just delete cookies (not only cache) and reinstall backup + old files

 

it worked for me

Ok I cleaned firefox, deleted old database, reinstalled saved one. Same result.

 

I'm now uploading files again on the server (but it takes so long...). Updating is a freaking disaster...

Ok here is what happens :

 

I put back the saved files. I restore de database. I go on the site first page (it works), click on a product get fastcgi problem. Go on back office, log on -> get fastcgi problem...

 

I've restarted the server. But only the front page of the shop and the login page of back office are working. All the other give me a 500 internal server error and in the log I get :

 

[Tue Sep 03 12:02:50.285052 2013] [:error] [pid 334:tid 3552674178816] (104)Connection reset by peer: [client 2.84.29.123:45258] FastCGI: failed to read from backend server, referer: http://www.sante-globale.fr/boutique/

 

Help ? :/

Ok the back office is working again except some page : products list, preference.... But I can access modules page (not configure them or remove them through...and sometimes it doesn't work).... The front office doesn't work. I can see the front page, but once I click on a product, I get fastcgi problem.

 

It's weird... Look like specific fastcgi problem that sometimes occures, sometimes not. But anyway very often.

 

I should never have update >.<

Problem solved.

 

1. Restored file from archive.

2. Imported saved database.

3. Hit F5 until you get on "Performance" in the back office panel. (The page was opening 1 time out of 50 lol)

4. Change Smarty config and disable cache. Save (hit F5 100 times if needed to make sure)

5. Reactivate smart stuff and cache.

 

Work again. Thanks for the free, thanks for the open source, but god damn it sucks lol.
