FrontAccounting Update
Important Notes
- You can easily upload all the files to your installation folder on the
server overwriting the existing files, if you take these important
steps:
- Backup (download) the following files to another folder:
- config_db.php (contains information about the companies and
connection info).
- config.php (contains various settings. You only need to
backup this file if you have done manually changes to it.
- /lang/installed_languages.inc (contains information about the
installed languages)
- /modules/installed_modules.php (contains information about
installed modules)
- if you have made changes to other files, like themes or so, backup
these files too.
- Upload all the new files.
- Restore the files mentioned in #1. Be careful with
config.php. Look into variances. There might be new variables in
the new version. It might be easier to manually change your former values in
the new file.
- Rename or remove the /install folder (you have already performed the install
process earlier).
- When
updating release 2.0.X to release 2.1.X, you must immediately,
after login (admin), go to the 'Setup' tab and run 'Software Upgrade'.
Mark the checkbox 'Force upgrade' and press 'Upgrade System'. If
you have more companies, you must logout and login on every company and
do the same procedure.
- There are no database changes during a major and minor release. Like from 2.1 to 2.1.1 - 2.1.5 .
