Today i tried to update our Mahara 19.10 Server. It is now on Ubuntu 20.04.
I could do the upgrade to Mahara Version 20.04, but with every newer version (i tried 20.10, 21.04.0 and 21.04.01) i get the following error on executing the upgrade script:

Hi there,

I am doing the upgrade from 20.10 to 21.04, and also ran into a similar error during the upgrade. The script output complaints about "blocktype/linkedinprofile/lib.php not exist" but I don't even have the subdirectory called ../linkedinprofile.

A nonrecoverable error occurred. This probably means you have encountered a bug in the system

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Bei,

We resolved the problem with the plugins you mentioned together with you outside of the forums.

Thank you,

Hi Gerald,

The Embed.ly plugin was merged into Mahara a while ago and is available via the 'Embedded media' block. We recommend that you remove any references to ‘blocktype/embedly’ in your codebase and references in your ‘blocktype_installed’ database table because you can use built-in functionality. Before you do that though, please check if any pages are still using the block. If that were the case, then the content would be removed.

If you don't want that to happen, then a more thorough investigation would be required to keep the blocktype alive for you, which goes beyond the support we can provide in the forums as it pertains to a third-party plugin. The last update to the plugin was done several years ago.

Thank you,

Doris

Hi Doris,
