I am new to Umbraco and I have got a version of a site that is using Umbraco 7.7.1 and I have done a successful local upgrade to 7.7.2.
I did this by installing the 7.7.2 packages from Nuget. Once I spun up the site you get redirected to the upgrade page where you can click "continue" and umbraco does some installing. I am curious as to what someone who is trying to access the site will see when I get redirected to that upgrade page. the below is what I get redirected too.
If the site implementation files have been upgraded via Nuget.
and the Database part 'hasn't yet'
Then anyone visiting the site, front end or backoffice, will be asked to login to authorize the upgrade....
To avoid this, generally for an upgrade you'll take a copy of the database, upgrade the solution and in turn upgrade the copy, test it all works, then switch the solution and database to be 'live'.
So that visitors to your site don't experience the 'upgrade' process when trying to access your site!
