Hey guys, anyone had this issue? CLI update.



[ec2-user@crm www]$ sudo php /web/crm.xxxxx.com/www/command.php upgrade

Current version is 8.4.2.

EspoCRM will be upgraded to version 9.0.0 now. Enter [Y] to continue.

update, one of the issues was with empty space, another issue was with time it takes to update, it may halt on table update (especially email).

PLEASE MAKE DB backups before you're doing this update

This cost me 4 hours of work and I lost around 8 hours of updates in the system from last backup

Upgrading - EspoCRM Documentation
the first recommendation for upgrades is to make a backup

If upgrading process failed due some reason, it's still possible to recover the instance without resorting to reverting to a backup. There are 3 directories: data, custom, client/custom. All other directories can be just deleted and replaced with ones from the Espo package of the corresponding version. Then, just run rebuild and it should work again.
