Upgrading Drupal

Hello there! I upgraded my website to 8.8.1 - apparently successfully. Now the build-in function to check and upgrade modules does not work any longer. When I click "check for available updates" the batch?id=70&op=start seems not to be executed. Drupal tells me that the process is initialised - but nothing happens. The same situation occures when I click on updating certain modules such as "token". The update function worked before the core update.

Does anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance!

I´ve updated from Drupal 8.7 to 8.8.1, just entering "composer update", but still using drupal/core, not the drupal/core-recommended package. How to migrate to this new package?

Other thing, composer is warning:

I recently upgraded to Drupal 8.8.1 and I received the below error after running 'make environment' (the upgrade went well and had no error).

ln: target 'EntityKernelTestBase.php' is not a directory
make: *** [environment] Error 1

The 'EntityKernelTestBase.php' file was removed from 'web/core/tests/Drupal/KernelTests/Core/Entity directory every time I run the 'make environment' command. 

I have no idea what went wrong, it did not happen before the upgrade which was v8.7.6.

Hi

I upgraded to Drupal 8.8.1 from 8.7.9, using composer and now my website Main menu disappears when I log out. It reappears and works fine when I login again.

Pathauto was updated first.

MAMP PHP log show no errors.

8.8.1 update, confirmed updates to both #8803 path alias and #8804 conversion to entities using update.php.

Everything worked fine with Drupal 8.7.9.

Anyone have any ideas where to look. What changes to the environment happen when logging out that may cause this? Is something linking wrong?

Hello,

I have upgraded a Drupal project from 8.5.5 to 8.7.3 or even 8.7.11 and since I have SQL problems with some Entity Reference Fields.

I have a content type with a lot of entity reference fields of File type and some of them generate SQL errors when I use autocomplete :

Uncaught PHP Exception Drupal\Core\Entity\Query\QueryException: "'' not found" at core/lib/Drupal/Core/Entity/Query/Sql/Tables.php line 367 (function ensureEntityTable).

I have a D7 site I am migrating to D8; but not a standard migration for numerous reasons:

1. the bundle structure is not the same in all cases, as an example:

- Contact node and User entity are being combined into User entity

2. some fields are being changed, for example:

- old D7 site used List fields in many places which are being replaced by Term Ref fields

3. the bundles are already built on the D8 site but content including user's can all be deleted if this helps my cause
