Hi Emilie and Paul,

Please see
http://manual.mahara.org/en/16.04/administration/config_php.html#new-in-
mahara-16-04-urlsecret-run-the-cron-or-upgrade-only-when-you-are-
authorised

or the config-defaults.php page in /lib for more information.

You will need to provide this value in your config.php file and add it
to the end of your upgrade URL when you are asked for it.

On a testing site you could disable this functionality and say

$cfg->urlsecret = null;

but we would not recommend that for a production site. That's why we
implemented this safeguard. ;-) It's to prevent unauthorized people from
running the cron or an upgrade.

Cheers
Kristina
