Hi Guys

When I try to update ES 1.4.1 via launcher from Joomla back-end it gets stuck on 20%, if I uninstall Es and then use the launcher again it works but messes the site as in attached screenshots.
I really want to just update and keep all settings etc in place rather then uninstall and re-install and reconfigure everything, any help would be great.

Kind Regards
Rob
Sorry I am using latest Joomla 3.4.4, the site runs great on 1.3

Hey robert,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

I try to access in your Joomla backend but i hitting this `Authentication Required` pop up, can you provide us with this access and FTP access so we can take a look?

I suspect that was hitting some file permission issue.

Hi Guys

Right I have tried to run the 1.4.2 update but gets stuck in same place on 20% and if I uninstall ES and try to upload fresh 1.4.2 loader by install files I get to part to input API key and just hangs on that screen.
I know its the weekend so during next week if someone could take a look that would be great, I lock my admin area down so need to unlock for you to gain access if you could arrange a day and time I will unlock it.

Thanks
Rob

hey Robert,

Can you provide us with your `Authentication Required` access so I can try install and see how it goes?

By the way, it would be best if you can request with your webhosting provider to setup a new FTP account so we can troubleshoot on this quickly.
