Upgrading from 1.2-DEV (2005-02-13) to 1.2.8

[Will]

Hello,

I would like to upgrade from 1.2 DEV to the lastest version... I tried to search the forums but did not found anything that could help me.

Is there anything I must know before I get into the job of migrating my database/installation?

All best,

Hi Will,

1. Please backup your db.
2. Backup your complete website.
2.1 OR save the files:
- /config/phpwcms/conf.inc.php
- /config/phpwcms/conf.template_default.inc.php
- /config/phpwcms/conf.indexpage.inc.php

- The whole folder
/phpwcms_template/inc_css/
/phpwcms_template/inc_cntpart/

3. Save a local copy of the new files.
4. Edit the config files and compare these with the old one.
- /config/phpwcms/conf.inc.php
- /config/phpwcms/conf.template_default.inc.php
- /config/phpwcms/conf.indexpage.inc.php
- /phpwcms_template/inc_css/frontend.css

5. Upload all files and folders.
6. /setup/upgrade.php and follow instructions to update the database.
7. If all was done, please erase the complete folder /setup/
8. Run and be happy.
