Public bug reported:

Hi,

I was trying to upgrade my existing 18.04.2 Mahara installation to latest 18.10.0 on my windows environment server. However I am getting "Mahara: Site unavailable
A nonrecoverable error occurred. This probably means you have encountered a bug in the system " error when I visit http://siteurl/admin/upgrade.php?rerun=1&urlsecret='mysecret'

To debug this further, I had uncommented $cfg->productionmode = false;
in config.php to see the errors and I found that it was giving error on
{Path to Mahara}/lib/dwoo/dwoo/Dwoo/Template/Str.php line 530 unable to
chmod.....

I guess this is happening because of "if (strpos(PHP_OS, 'WIN') !==
false && $baseDir !== null)" condition. Instead of this if I replace
false with 0 i.e "if (strpos(PHP_OS, 'WIN') !== 0 && $baseDir !== null)"
the upgrade works fine.

Can you please confirm is this the known issue ? Or am I missing on
something ?
