I am trying to update from 1.1-RC2 to the current version 4.

Apologies if a thread has already explained this, or if there is an FAQ, but would it be possible for someone to point me in the direction of how to do this, or even better explain to me...

Thanks
Peter

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
