The 3.1.7-pl1 is an upgrade from many iterations of 3.1. Running this on Windows using Xampp, Apache 2.4.17, php 5.6.14

Also when running the update (and the install) there are periods of no apparent activity. The page just sits there showing nothing - no progress bar, no "Please wait" message, no spinner.
Could you elaborate on this a bit?

I updated to 3.2-b2 from a2 through a git merge phpbb/prep-release-3.2.0-b1, how do i update the database only ?
By some convoluted route I have managed to update one of my 3.1.7-pl1 boards
I uploaded the 3.1.7-pl1 -> 3.2.0-b1 package, ran update and selected update database (although it did not update the version in the config table) and then copied the updated files from the 3.2.0-b1 files package.

That's due to the cache. If you are not in debug mode that's normal.
In a production mode a lot of things are done to optimize the application. And it also means that the cache has to be cleared every time you change something in an extension (it is done automatically when enabling/disabling an extension bu not when updating the board)

But I am not changing anything - just enabling an extension and then configuring it in the ACP. I know that purging the cache is done when enabling/disabling an extension so it seems strange that I have to purge the cache again. It never did this with 3.2.0.-a1/2

RMcGirr83, John P: Please add a comment to this ticket with the server config you running and with the timeout settings you are using (e.g. max_execution_time in php.ini etc).
If you think you are seeing timeout issues, please do the same and please also let me know where in the installer the timeout occurred.

If this problem is only resolved when you refresh the page, then i would appreciate if you could do this as well.
