v158 question

Are there any changes made to the database by v158 when upgrading from v157 that I need to know about? I am setting up v158 and was going to create a new sql database with a new name. After the install was going to backup/export the old data from v157 and import into the new v158 database. Wanted to make sure I didn't need the old data in place before completing the install.

Changing from one numbered version to another means a database change.

If you do this, you need to do a zc_install.

Perhaps simpler:

  • copy 157 database to new name
  • set 158 configure files to point to that new name
  • run YOUR_158_STORE.com/zc_install

Now you're set.
