Hi all,
I installed the latest version of upgradeMODX no trouble, I can see the widget on the manager dashboard but when I click the 'Upgrade MODX' button nothing happens other than my session is logged out (I'm dumped on my website's index page attempting to load upgrade.php [not created on install?]).
Any ideas what the problem could be? The log (MODX and server) has nothing to go on but I would guess it's a permissions issue.
Some information on the environment:
Digital Ocean VPS:
- Ubuntu 17.10
- PHP 7.1.17
- Apache 2.4.27
- MySQL 14.14
- MODX Revolution 2.5.2-pl
- MODX core is renamed and outside of the site root

Funny how you discover the answer after posting an issue as a last resort..!
To future solution hunters, the fix for this issue was to ensure that the directory was owned the web-server user, not just in the web-server user group.
