Kunena 6.4.8 Released

The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 6.4.8 [K 6.4.8] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 5.0.x/5.1.x/5.2.x/5.3.x/5.4.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 / K 6.3 / K 6.4 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 6.4
Important note: Go to the Kunena Dashboard after an upgrade so that the Kunena database tables are also updated. This is particularly necessary for major version jumps so that the table changes are adapted.

This section is for questions directly related to the procedure for installing Kunena for the first time or upgrading from an older version of Kunena.

Use this category:
  • to ask how to install or upgrade; or
  • if you encountered problems during the installation or upgrade procedure.

Use a different category to ask questions about problems that you may be having after you successfully installed or upgraded the currently supported version. If you are unsure what is the current supported version of Kunena, please go to the download page.

Still have same error - cannot open the Kunena update site.
Code:
Update: Could not open update site #218 "Kunena 6.3 Update Site", URL: https://update.kunena.org/6.3/list.xml
 
I've searched through the database and find the update URL string in the "update_sites" table.
Should I change this to a different URL? Or delete this row? Or something else to fix the error?
Thanks for any assistance.

Update:
I've just updated to Kunena 6.3.5 and now the problem appears to be worse.
Now I get two errors instead of one.

Code:
Update: Could not open update site #218 "Kunena 6.1 Update Site", URL: https://update.kunena.org/6.1/list.xml Update: Could not open update site #228 "Kunena 6.3 Update Site", URL: https://update.kunena.org/6.3/list.xml
 

When Joomla is searching for the Kunena updates, the Joomla "check for updates" hangs until it determines the above Kunena sites are not available. So update checks now take a really long time.
How do I go about fixing this problem?
Thanks,
Ari

Don't know why the 6.1 suddenly appears, but you should be able to delete it through system update sites.
Update site for K 6.3.5 can be reached: update.kunena.org/6.3/list.xml
So maybe a firewall is blocking access?

It seems unlikely that a firewall is blocking access since all the other .xml update sites work just fine.

 

I noticed that Joomla did not notice the latest Kunena version was available for update and I had to go to the kunena.org site and download it manually.
