Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
Ah, bingo!
If you set one of the theme directories within the themes directory itself with permissions that are not readable by the web server, you do indeed get UnexpectedValueException. So it is the (stupidly named, imo) RecursiveIteratorIterator that’s complaining.
At least we have something to go on now..

Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
I was thinking it might have to do with the subdirectory though, which might as well lead to a path error.
In this configuration, their root is not muenster.org but muenster.org/medienforum/ …
It’s handled like the old paradigm server.org/~user/

Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
Now, this may be an issue if somebody manually extracts a theme – say one they downloaded from our one-day themes site or that was shared by the community – and doesn’t set the same permissions as the surrounding directory. Or maybe if some themes in the /themes directory are symlinked somewhere else in a multi-site installation.
So we definitely need to counter this somehow, but the whole RecursiveIterator thing is above my pay grade right now. Will take some time for me to grok it, so if anyone knows anything about why it does this and can offer a patch/solution before I get a chance to look at it later in the week, please be my guest.

Sher-Bloke Holmes strikes again!
Can you summarise in an issue so we can track it, Stef?

Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
By the way, has anybody figured out what the real problem was here? Had the exact same problem today when trying to upgrade another site on a different server from 4.6.2 to 4.7.1 …

Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
Again, I find myself stuck in the language panel when attempting to downgrade to 4.6.2, and have this error:
User_Error "Unknown column 'prefs_id' in 'field list'"

There was an unused prefs_id column in 4.6 that has been removed in 4.7. You can add it manually, but there are other (themes and GDPR related) db changes between 4.6 and 4.7, so 4.6 downgrade is not straightforward. You’d need to do a fresh 4.6 install and then switch 4.7 tables structure to 4.6.

Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
So, I managed to solve this. Here’s what I did: I went into phpmyadmin and deactivated all plugins, then I made the upgrade to 4.7 again, was able to login, was able to update languages. I reactivated all plugins one by one and — even without upgrading them — everything is fine.
As I had this problem before, I guess it’s best to remember the good old WordPress rule and de-activate all plugins before upgrading from 4.6 to 4.7 …
Here’s the list of my plugins:

Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
… or in more detail:
bot_write_tab_customize / v0.6.2
rah_urltolink / v0.4.4
smd_where_used / v0.30
zem_contact_lang / v4.0.3.6
zem_contact_reborn / v4.0.3.20The culprit will most likely not be rah_urltolink + zem_contact as they were not used in that other installation that failed upgrading.

This might be the one that caused you headaches. jakob has released an adjusted version of bot_wtc for 4.7.
In bad weather I never leave home without wet_plugout, smd_where_used and adi_form_links

Re: Two issues with 4.7.0
Yes, I think so, too. Love that plugin and install it on almost every site, but you need to keep an eye on the version & compatibility each time you update.
