upgrade to ver. 2.6.5

[nobby]

I have wrongly upgraded to version 2.6.5. The only data transferred and remains is the data in "data" folder.
All other data have been replaced with new ones.

Please advise if I can still utilize old faq data in the upgraded version or not.

Hi,

just run the update script and everything will be okay.

Hi , thank you for the answer. I copied old data folder to the newly installed version of 2.6.5.
Then I executed update.php in the browser but it prompted to execute setup instead.
So I completed setup.php without error and then executed update.php in the broswer. It also
completed without any error. However faq data can not be found.
Please advise what was wrong in above procedure.

Hi,

from which version did you do the update?

It should be either ver 2.5.4 or 2.5.3.

I can see Date.php but no "data.php" file in inc/ folder. It looks I lost it.

Hi,

don't you have a backup from your old FAQ data?

AS I have written above, the only backup data from old version is the data in "data" folder.

Hi,

please create a data.php file with the following content:

Code: Select all

<?php
$DB["server"] = 'your host';
$DB["user"] = 'your db user';
$DB["password"] = 'your db password';
$DB["db"] = 'your database';
$DB["prefix"] = 'if you have a prefix, add it here';
$DB["type"] = 'mysql';

Then save the file and run the update process.

Hi

I have made data.php file and stored it in inc/ folder then ran update.php process.
It looked that update process completed with no error, however still I can not find
old faq in the upgraded version of the program.
