Hi All,
Please can you help me?
I backed up all of my 1.2.1 files and DB. I erased the root folder of my site. I installed 1.2.2. I restored my DB. So far so good.... But which folders do I need to move from 1.2.1 to 1.2.2 to ensure I get all of my images, banners, templates and customisations back?
Also, when I log into the admin control panel and click on Storefront, it shows me the maintenance message. I thought 1.2.2 had this fixed?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
J
Try core upgrade http://www.abantecart.com/ecommerce-documentation/user-manual/installation/core-upgrade
Hi
Thanks for the tip, but this documentation is written very well or I am struggling to follow it.
I already have 1.2.2 installed and just need to know which directory's to copy over.
Thanks
when I updates my installs in this manner
I copy over the image and the resources files
This will only work if you have imported your previous DB.
If you had any extensions (third-party) you will need to update them also.
Of note, in this way, if you had a working shop previously, and you had customers etc. CHANGE THE CONFIG FILE to the old file SALT and encryption key or logins to existing accounts won't work

[/size]As a comment - this is a rather inefficient way to update a cart. If you have Softaculous on your server, you could make a clone of your working site, run the update from the link within the Admin panel and test to be sure all is well. Then make a backup of your existing working site BEFORE you upgrade (just in case) and then run the update on your working site.
