Upgrade from RC2 to RC4

[rvergara]

I just want to prepare a checklist for this, please comment if I am missing anything:

1. Do i need to go first to RC3 and the to RC4? or can I go fro RC2 to RC4 in one step?
2. Back up the database and the customized conf.inc.php, front.func.inc.php and frontend.css.
3. Download and replace the phpwcms scripts.
4. How do I update the Database for changes?


anything else?

Thanks

Hello

please read this.

ALWAYS BACKUP FILES AND DATABASE

Update:

If you have last release (08-05-2004) installed - just replace all files by new one. Make backup before doing this. No db change done.

Be sure not to overwrite all custom files:
- complete subdir inc_conf
- all css files
- startup.html if you have changed this file
- setup folder is not neccessary

Update form older release:
- check all *.sql files in setup folder
- do sql update manually by using phpwcms and older first
- do not check against phpwcms_init.sql

More input needed
What syntax did you try?
What's your error/symptom?

I used the following tag

Code: Select all

{PHP:php_directory/filename.php}

I get no error on the actual page as the provider has turned this off...
Hope this helps in some way...
thanks

This replacement tag has changed functionality recently. Remote PHP includes are disabled because of security problems.
