[solved] Upgrade From Version 1.0.8

[forextrader36]

Ok, but where do I copy the checksum.dat file to and how do I use it? How do I get it to check that all the files are uploaded ok?

Run the upgrade script and you will see a field to upload the checksum file in step 1

Ok well I am now up to version 1.9.4.3

Just 1 more step to go to current version.

I did hit a few stumbling blocks along the way but managed to find solutions to most of them by searching around a little.

After a certain version I started to get an error when running the upgrade regarding the PHP script time limit being too low.

It said to change the setting in the php.ini file but I could not find the php.ini file anywhere.

Instead I put the following code into the config.php file instead

Code: Select all

ini_set('max_execution_time', 90);

I then need to put this in again after running each upgrade procedure. I hope I've done the right thing. If anyone knows where I can find the php.ini file instead to do it properly I would love to know.

So I'm almost there.

Well I finally got there, now fully up to date.

A few outstanding issues but I will resolve those in another post in the correct category.
