Fair enough - here is where I tripped and google-concluded that Im not alone. Trying to upgrade a test-copy of production site, PS 1.6.1.16 to the latest and greatest 1.7.5. No custom theme, all external modules stopped, no caching, no overrides. When start the process it downloads the update and would not unzip it, nor see it in the directory. All permissions set to 755. - Error displayed: "/autoupgrade/latest/prestashop does not exist or is not a directory" - googled. I am sorry but do not see where one could err so far. Kindly explain to me why PS is not at fault here. Anyway - workaround found - upgrade file unzipped and uploaded in the coresponding directory. Once there the upgrade runs till right after updated all files and serves you: : [Ajax / Server Error for action upgradeDb] textStatus: "error " errorThrown:"Internal Server Error " jqXHR: " "
No workaround found yet. Server does not show an error, max execution time set at 3600, max input at 1800...
In conclusion - you are right that there is no point of bitching around without giving details on the issues but after googling countless topics with the same issues one is experiencing and no good answers are found, one might get a bit edgy.
Thanks for helping out. Came across many helpful answers by you. Much appreciated.
