Upgrading To 3.7 About The Config.php

[Shawn Yue]

Do I Need To Update The Config.php

Can I Copy The Information From The 3.6 Config.php????

Also Do I Have To Upload All The Upload Folder In 3.7 After That Rename The Upload Folder To forum?????

BTW How To Do System Backup incase i did wrongly the uploading...

[Floris]

You can use the 3.6 config.php file for 3.7

If you don't know what you're doing and have no upgrade experience and don't know how to backup and restore; I do not recommend upgrading. Please read our announcements again before doing so.

You mean I Can put The 3.6 cONFIG .PHP fILE INTO THE NEW UPGRADED CONFIG.PHP????

[Floris]

No, I said you can copy the config.php file from 3.6 into the 3.7 includes/ directory.

[Shawn Yue]

Sry I Dun Understand.....

[Floris]

You have backup 3.6
backup has config.php

use windows explorer to copy the file
and put copy in includes/ dir from 3.7

make sure it is called config.php

DONE

[Shawn Yue]

When I Run The Installer It Say Database Error....

[Floris]

You will need to be more specific.

[Shawn Yue]

Cannot Connect To SQL Database......

Then the details in config.php are not correct. Check with your hosting provider if the details are accurate.

[Shawn Yue]

i copy the information from the 3.6.8 it should be correct all the information inside.....i just see and copy....

[Floris]

You're upgrading the 3.6 forum in th same hosting account, same directory, etc right?

[Shawn Yue]

Ya The Forum Directory

That Jake Brunce Installed For Me

[Floris]

Then if your 3.6 works ..
and you upload the 3.7 files
and put the 3.6 config.php in the includes dir
and run the upgrade.php file
it should go fine 100%

[Shawn Yue]

Is that so simple?????

Just upload all the file and overwritting it to the forum directory

and upload the 3.6 config.php into the include directory???

do you need to config the 3.7 config.php file ???

btw will your member be lost???
