After updating, UpgradeMODX fails to enter the admin panel. HTTP error ERROR 500

Updated UpgradeMODX to version 2.0.2-pl. After that, I can't log in to the modx admin panel. HTTP error ERROR 500

In the server error log:

[error] [client ...] client denied by server configuration: /var/www/.../data/www/.../core/docs/changelog.txt
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting ',' or ';' in /var/www/.../data/www/.../core/components/upgrademodx/processors/ugmprocessor.class.php on line 41

version of php on the server 5.4.45

It turned out that the problem was in the widget.

I don't know what to make of that error.

This is line 41 of that file:

public $logFilePath = MODX_CORE_PATH . 'cache/logs/upgrademodx.log';

The only thing I can think of is that either MODX_CORE_PATH is empty or contains a syntax error, but since it's running from the Manager, I don't see how either condition would be possible.

I have the same error after update to latest version 2.0.2-pl

Modx version 2.6.5-pl

Test in PHP Version 5.4.45, 5.6 and 7.1

Thank! I deleted the UpgradeMODX widget from the main page through the database and the site was working. The fact is that on my other sites I updated UpgradeMODX and there were no problems. Only on one site appeared this error, so I am not critical.

I think this is the fix for that: https://forums.modx.com/thread/104584/upgrademodx-039-versions-empty--check-github-username-039?page=2#dis-post-562586

I'll be releasing a new version soon. You can also look at the fix here

Sorry, I think that fix is incorrect. Watch for the new version.

Hi @kos0760 @gravino81,
can you check if this is still happening with "2.1.2-pl"?

Answer 7 · 2019-05-07T21:01:50.000Z

Hi, I have the same error after update on Modx version 2.6.5-pl

Answer 8 · 2019-05-07T21:06:46.000Z

2.1.2-pl same error (

Answer 9 · 2019-05-08T22:17:02.000Z

I really thought I'd corrected that in this commit.

I haven't been able to duplicate the error on any platform, so I can't troubleshoot it.

Hi @BobRay
Don't know if this is the same issue, but here is what i believe might be the cause.

My setup

Modx v 2.6.5
UpgradeMODX plugin v1.5.5

How to reproduce

Upgrade packages
UpgradeMODX v1.5.5 -> v2.1.2

What happened

The admin manager gave a 500 error
fatal error message Call to undefined method UpgradeMODX::versionListExists() in the upgrademodx snippet.
In the snippet on line 127 here is the line of code $versionListExists = $upgrade->versionListExists();
I'm guessing in the core modx they added some functions to the $upgrade class, which are not in earler versions of modx core ie 2.6.5, but is in 2.7.1.

How I fixed.

Found old version of upgrademodx snippet, and replaced.
Remove the version and then Re install upgrademodx 1.5.5
Upgrade modx 2.7.1
Upgrade Packages. (upgrademodx to v2.1.2)

Is it possible that the error message specified line 106 rather than 126?

This error is usually caused by a problem with the News and/or Security feeds on the dashboard, rather than UGM. There's a discussion of it in the troubleshooting section of the docs.
