Upgrade help

[djdavedawson]

This will be my first time updating zencart and I have a few questions. I have 1.3.0.1 installed currently and want to update to 1.3.0.2.

I have downloaded the "changed files only v1.3.0.2." folder. In this folder there is an admin, docs, email, includes, and zc_install folder. The install.txt says to unpack this to the webserver. If I ftp all the folders, it will replace the admin, docs, email, includes folders I aldready have there.

Do I only ftp the zc_install folder?

Once I have the correct files up there, Will I need to rename my admin directory back to "admin" for I had changed it for security reasons?

I have been playing around with this on a test install I have and was also confused about which buttons I should select and in which order.

There are an "Install" , "Update Ctp", and "Update database" buttons. Not sure what to do here.

Is there anything important I may be missing?

Please help....

Thankx

You need to use all the files in the change files. The reason it will over write files already there is because they are the files that have been changed in some way from the version you have.

Then you would update and be fine ;)

Hope that helps!

Do I hit "Install" , "Update Cfg", or "Update database" now?

[TinaS]

I never upgraded that one - but I believe that upgrade database is all that is needed at least that is normally the case. The config file shouldn't need updated if you haven't moved your store files or anything.

OK, so I updated and it says this:

What does this mean??

Thanks for your time

It means that the install for those tables was skipped because they already exsist

[djdavedawson]

Is that ok for those items to be skipped ?

[TinaS]

Yes you are fine - if the table entries already exist it's not going to over write them :)

Your upgrade should be complete now.
