White page on upgrade

My report: After selecting all in "Step 2: Upgrade Options" and clicking continue, I am facing a white page during the upgrade. I tried again by disabling all addons and hooks, but the upgrade still facing the white page. I tried to install 1.0.7 using the same database and domain and that works just fine. I haven't try installing 1.1 beta 1 as a fresh install though.

I found no error in Apache2 error log as well.

For bugs, better a new topic in bug reports. ;)
I'll split that to there.

ETA: here it is.
Yeah, I guess I should have asked for more testing on upgrade... :-[
It worked last time I tried, but I guess I broke something. :-\

Upgrade still has the hiccups. I couldn't upgrade selecting all option in step1 but managed to upgrade leaving default option selected (#2).

Error 500 but I still couldn't find any recorded error in apache2 error log.

Oh noes. I received a "HTTP ERROR 500" white page too........ :'(
This on Step 2, right after selecting options.

Oh hahaha my bad....

The Elkarte-development.zip file is actually a zip of a folder.. so when extracting it onto my server, it created a folder instead of overwriting the original forum files...

Fixed and all okay now :)

Retried several times and still failed to properly upgrade. This time old language error. Sighed. It's either you are lucky or it is my bad luck. As for now, I will stay away from further upgrade test.

I did a copy of my forum in localhost, and beside the strange look of fontawesome icons it seems to run well.
I tried to upgrade to 1.1 with the instructions provided here
Update and Upgrade ยท elkarte/Elkarte Wiki
and I'm getting an error 500 when I go to install/upgrade.php
In error.log I see

Code: [Select]
[Mon Jan 02 22:58:52.743536 2017] [:error] [pid 8282] [client 127.0.0.1:37006] PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/radu/www/html/skodaclub/install/upgrade.php on line 453, referer: http://localhost/skodaclub/install/install.php


I think it's related to my local install, is there something I should check? I use php 5.6, apache 2.4 on mint 18

As much as I can remember, it was good in 1.1 beta 3 for upgrade from 1.0 branch.
