Upgrading from 2.8 to 2.9

Post by KT_ »

I'm obviously not understanding the upgrade steps clearly.

For instance, the instructions say: "First you have to delete all files except:"

Delete from where? My existing phpMyFaq installation? Okay, that would make sense.

But then it says to open: "http://www.example.com/faq/setup/update.php"

So that would be in the directory tree where I just deleted everything? Obviously that won't do anything then, since there's nothing left there. So do I first unpack the new 2.9 archive into place?

Thanks. Just looking for a kick in the right direction.

Hi,

yes, please delete the old files from your 2.8 installation except the files and folders mentioned in the documentation. Then copy the new files from the unzipped 2.9 package into your installation. After that, just run the update
