Cowtacular Upgrade Instructions =============================== ------------------------------------- Upgrading from version 0.44 or later: ------------------------------------- Step1 - Backup your cow-config.php file and the contents of your datalocation that is set in your cow-config.php file. Step2 - Delete the contents of your Cowtacular installation. # rm -rf /var/www/cowtacular/* Step3 - Extract the latest version of Cowtacular into the location where the old one was installed. # cd /var/www/cowtacular # tar -vxzf /home/username/cowtacular-#.##.tar.gz Step4 - Restore your original cow-config.php file or edit the new one to match your settings. Step5 - Restore your database files if you happen to have kept them in the cowtacular installation location. (Probably not a good place to keep them) Step5 - Run the database upgrade script in the scripts directory. # cd /var/www/cowtacular # php -f scripts/upgradedatabase.php -------------------------------------- Upgrading from a version prior to 0.44 -------------------------------------- Cowtacular 0.44 has dropped support for MySQL and Oracle. It has become too difficult to maintain multiple database connectors. And SQLite was the way I wanted to go with this application. If you this does not work for you, unfortunatley you'll need to find a different application to use for your needs. If you want to migrate, please contact the developer. It's a tricky process that requires migrating your data into SQLite version 2 and then running a funky upgrade script. © 2009 Cowtacular LLC |
