Cc v4 to v6


Recommended Posts

Hi,

can anyone help with a manual upgrade from v4 to the latest v6?

i have made a copy of all files from FTP server and saved to desktop.  I want to do a local install first to check the site works, and see what work needs to be done if I move to a diffferent host.

i copied the files for v6 into and over my current local v4 files, but it doesn’t allow an upgrade.  Just a clean install?

any help for a novice?

thanks

Have you followed this : https://support.cubecart.com/Knowledgebase/Article/View/230/43/how-do-i-upgrade-from-cubecart-v4-to-v6 but remember the offer I made in our PM conversation !

You will either need to use the built in Foundation skin or one of a (very small) selection available on the marketplace - check out our Retail Therapy skin (https://www.cubecart.com/extensions/skins/retail-therapy-skin) which works alongside the free skin configuration plugin (https://www.cubecart.com/extensions/plugins/havenswift-hosting-skin-configuration).

All extensions such as shipping, payment gateways, languages are now all separate and many are free and available from the marketplace https://www.cubecart.com/extensions

If you had any custom code at all then this will be lost and you will need for it to be done again or a much better solution is to have it done via a plugin which doesnt change core code

Hi

 

thanks for help again.  Haven’t forgotten your previous message, just haven’t had chance to catch-up with the website owner yet.

Regarding the above.  Followed the link you sent, just kept the file and folder listed.  Receive the following 

 

warning MySQLi  construct hy000 1045. Access denied for user xx@localhost using password yes 

i really just wanted to test out various plugins under v6 with the current store data.  Before moving to a new host if they decide to, so I’m more comfortable once the store is live.

any ideas?
