Create another DB for 13.5 upgrade?

Searched the forum, couldn't find anything on creating another database.

I want to upgrade from 1.3.0.1 to 1.3.5.

I have copied my current Store, to a new folder.

Now can someone help me with changing the database?

My current store has no customers and just a few test products. Just thought I'd upgrade before I continued, adding Paypal and other customization. Is a whole new database neccessary?

Thanks.

You don't need another data base. Just follow these instructions.

If you are upgrading from Zen Cart v1.3.0.2, the process is simple:

• compare all the changed files with the files on your own site... and re-apply your customizations to the new files
• upload the new files (with your customizations added) to your site
• upload the zc_install folder to your server, and run zc_install/index.php
  ... select Database Upgrade from the System Inspection screen. Apply the required updates.

The same applies for upgrading from 1.3.0.1

Thanks for your help.

On the Database Setup page I'm getting this error:

Database does not exist
Access denied for user 'mydomain'@'localhost' to database 'zencart'

The database name you have specified does not appear to exist.
(Did you create it? -- NOTE: Zen Cart™ does not create a database for you.).

So how do i create a db?

I'm upgrading from 13.1 to 13.5

Thanks

You'll need to do that through the administrative panel on your server.

Log into your server and you should see a list of options for managing everything connected with you site.

One of these will be a database manager.

Or contact your provider and see if they can create it for you.

Thank you...
