I probably should have done this in a different topic and forum here.

It sounds like it was creating a temporary table for one of the steps. You don't want to stop it until it says it's done. When finished it will give you a list of steps and what it actually did, I believe 12 in total.

Yes, this should be it's own topic. This is just meant for basic discussion on the release.

I am now trying to figure out why the database increased from around 316,000 Kb to 503,622 Kb, the bulk of it is ubbt_POSTS.MYD and sql-ad3_a35b7.MYD

Then I should refresh it then?

I did the refresh and received the following GOOD message:

This upgrade has been completed. Please remove the entire install directory

Return to your forums

I am happy again now.

Rick,

You may want to move all these offtopic posts and create a new topic out of them.

Rick will need to do this as us mods, do not have any rights in here LOL

oops he has just done it

By the way, it didn't list any of the 12 steps, but it did complete the upgrade but left a weird large database myd file behind, which Rick in a PM says he doesn't know what it is, therefore, shouldn't it be safe for me to delete it myself, if I can, or have my host delete it for me?
