Upgrade: New Installation with database population...Good Idea


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hello CC People,

Can someone advise if it will be a good practice to do a fresh install and then repopulate with old database post-fresh install. I currently have CC 3.0.10 and wants to upgrade to 3.0.14.

Thanks

All depends to various conditions.

If you want to have fresh files you dont need to do whole installation. As always do a backup of DB and file area.

Copy the fresh files from package upload folder to new site folder.

Do use old includes/content/global.inc.php + change the paths/URL in global.inc.php manualy (add/change new folder you use for fresh files)

Run three upgrade scripts from following folders:

upgrade\scripts\3.0.{6-10}-3.0.11

upgrade\scripts\3.0.11-3.0.12

upgrade\scripts\3.0.12-3.0.13

Well, fresh cubecart is ready to use upgraded DB just try it (dont try the SSL apges if you use it).

Once the new, latest cubecart is prepared do remove old folder/file, move the fresh folder content to the old used folder and overwrite the inlcudes/global.inc.php with the old one (there are correct paths and URL).

You saved the DB EXPORT/IMPORT step.
