Hello
I'm about to move an existing site from 1.3.8a onto 1.3.9h.
I've read that I have to perform a clean install to get the site up-to-date with the 1.3.9h version.
I've followed the full backup tutorials so now have an up-to-date set of files from server and a copy of the existing DB (gzipped), I've also got the details for a new empty database.
Before I do anything - is this the correct approach to move the site to the new version:
1. Upload the 1.3.9h files onto the server into a subfolder so as not to overwrite the existing site.
2. Import the existing DB into the new clean database.
3. Run the zc installer for 1.3.9h and... errr... tell it to upgrade the new database?
You might see that I'm a bit unclear on the DB transfer steps to get the existing content onto the 1.3.9h version.
Any advice is gratefully received, thanks in advance.
(I've been reading over several threads that seem to cover the issue but I'm still left a bit confused so thought I'd best ask before uploading).
