Update not working

This also may well be an issue with my host (A2 Hosting Shared), but maybe it's also a configuration issue and/or you can help me where to look for the problem. I'm currently running UNA 9.0.0-B5, and am trying to update to UNA 9.0.0-RC1 using the Update button in the Studio Dashboard. I get the overlay message "Site will be upgraded within a minute", but then nothing seems to happen anymore. I actually left the page open like that over night, and it was still the same in the morning. Maybe there is some permission issue in one of my directories or something? What are the requirements for the automatic update mechanism to work?

I initially installed UNA through the Softaculous installer if that makes a difference, and have never performed an upgrade before.

    • Update is run upon cron job, so it looks like cron job isn't setup or it's incorrect.

      Cron job for UNA should look like this:

      * * * * * php -q /replace_with_full_path_to_una/periodic/cron.php

        Indeed, that was the problem. My cronjob was broken. For some reason, Softaculous seems to have left out the `cron.php` bit when setting up the job.

        I fixed the path and UNA was updated within the minute. Thank you for the quick help!
