I'm working through the very, very vague instructions here as the automatic upgrade failed, so I have some questions -
https://abantecart.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AD/pages/5275676/Upgrade+manuallyAfter copying and overwriting the current files structure using the 1.2.13 upgrade files I now have to "Run modified upgrade.sql" I think I open PHPmysadmin, select the database and click the SQL tab. I copy and paste the lengthy text contents of the upgrade.sql file into the box, Run SQL query/queries on database and then Go?
As upgrade.php file present in upgrade 1.2.13 archive, copy the upgrade.php file into /folder_where_cart_installed/admin/controller/common/head.php in about line 30, (whatever that actually means).
This is the "about line 30" from the head.php file -
//use to init controller data
$this->extensions->hk_InitData($this, __FUNCTION__);
$this->load->helper('html');
$this->loadLanguage('common/header');
$message_link = $this->html->getSecureURL('tool/message_manager');
This means add this line in an empty line to execute it by opening a web browser and logging into the admin account ONCE. Then log out, and remove the file AND the line reference?
"include('/yourpathtofile/upgrade.php');
Load admin page once! This will execute PHP update script and will run commands from the upgrade.php file"
