How can upgrade from 1.3.9a to 1.3.9h?

**erevnitis** · 14 Dec 2010, 03:17 PM

I am new to zen-cart.
I have installed on 27 April 2010 the zen cart 1.3.9a. But from then I did not proceed some configuration, except that I added greek language and some text in first page.
Now I would like to upgrade to 1.3.9h, but I am a little confused.
If you know some detailed guide for this upgrade, please tell me!
If I want to reinstall the zen cart new edition, how can do it?
Any help I will welcome it!
Thank you!

Tripple check your version as 1.3.9a was not released until may 1, 2010

The date 27 April 2010 is in my admin when I click VERSION :
v1.3.9a [2010-04-27 07:53:51] (Fresh Installation).

I understood that I must upgrade manually and check and edit php code.
Other programs has auto upgrade.
Then I either I don't upgrade never, or delete old zen cart and reinstall new edition. Or I try to find other application.

are you sure that auto upgrade mean a fresh install of the newest version - it does on my server. Then you have to go and reinstall your all your customization.

Maybe kobra has another suggestion but since you have many versions to naviagte thru I would suggest a fresh install of h and then if you have a standard customization (that is not purchased template and that it is a customization via the overrides) then just upload your override files and reinstall the mods and database.
You are done!
Then if version i comes out you can deal with the upgrading of just those files or folder affected within that upgrade.

hope this helps
