[SOLVED] What is recommended update procedure?
#1
What is recommended update procedure?

Do you install the new version over the top of your old version?

Or, do you start with a fresh version and copy existing pages to the new install?
Thanks,

1. Upload index.php and admin folder overwriting existing files.
2. Log in or browse any admin page.

Well, that didn't work! - I get a "This page is temporarily unavailable" error.

I'm going from 3.3.3 to3.3.8

UPDATE: Got it working...

Logging in, or simply trying to go to the public page did not work.
However, what was not completely clear is attempting a admin page seems to get you to the backend. Once logged into the backend, it seems to work ok after that. So, I pointed my browser to <site url>/<admin dir>/backup.php then logged in.


Thanks for the help Smile

[ ! ] IMPORTANT: As of v3.3.0, You must visit /admin after upgrading, front end will be temporarily closed now after updates/installs until update/install is completed

FYI - the text is not red.

I suggest you update the font style to red + bold ...

Because I got the download off Github, there does not seem to be a warning - one is needed there too!

Github has a readme, which links to the wiki for upgrade instructions, which also has this info.
