I got frustrated with trying to do an upgrade from 1.3.8a to v1.3.9h. WinMerge shows so many changes I had no idea where to begin - and the instruction to create a demo folder for a trial was even more confusing.
So I am attempting a fresh install to a new folder (called zencart2) with a new database, with the hopes that I can just load my template changes (created for the old version) into the new version. Ie my CSS, and my custom files. Am I correct on this? And also with hopes that I can also just import my database used by the former version.
I am getting no where with the fresh install though because when I attempt the 'install' step I get "IISPassword: The page cannot be displayed". I have read many of the other posts, but I cannot understand what is being instructed re the IIS or the htaccess. (which htaccess, and where do you drop in the change?)
I am using WindowsXP - I don't know how to find this "Windows" folder via the instructions on the other posts for the IIS.... if, in fact this is my problem.
