How can you upgrade the database with the script provided. If I want to go from 4.2.0 to 4.3, I understand I need to install a new copy of x-cart, but how can I upgrade the database? Where will this script run? Please elaborate if possible...

Also, the products, images, etc. how can I maintain this - is this simply a matter of copying the "skin" folder? Which folders would I need from the old store to make sure the product images remain intact.

Thanks in advance.

Read the UPGRADE.NOTES_4.2.x-4.3.x included in the upgrade tar/zip. It explains exactly what you need to do.

I then made a copy of my Store, and put it in a new folder (xcart2), and tryed to do the install on it. I set it to update the "config.php" only, and set everything for the new database, and new folder, and set it to do a "new install" but the install.php would not run, because it said the Install Key was invalid. I copied and pasted out of my original store CP, but it still said it was invalid.

So I deleted the copy of the store, and copied the new install files to the new folder (xcart2) and ran the install with the Copied Database. Everything installed fine. I then went in to my ACP and checked all settings to make sure they were right.

Now My question.

Can I just copy this new install over the original store files to do the update?

One other question while I'm on the subject.

I have a large egoods database, and also image folder. I have noticed that on every update or new install if I leave these two folders in place when the install or upgrade gets to the Creating "Site Fingerprint" it hangs up. but if I remove those two folders then it completes fine. Is this normal?

Michael

Does anyone have an answer to my question?? or do I have to do the install in the store folder?

In the main.css alter these to fit.

#header .line1 {
position: relative;
height: 67px;/* top row */
direction: ltr;
}
#header .line1 .logo {
padding-top: 9px;
margin-left: 27px;
width: 203px; /* logo container div */
}
#header .line1 .logo a img {
width: 203px; /* logo width */
height: 48px; /* logo height */
}

do you have a pic of problem

I had to alter a different place in the file also as the image was partially hidden under another object

[Serginfor.com]

I put the data below


#header .line1 {
position: relative;
height: 67px;/* top row */
direction: ltr;
}
#header .line1 .logo {
padding-top: 9px;
margin-left: 27px;
width: 444px; /* logo container div */
}
#header .line1 .logo a img {
width: 444px; /* logo width */
height: 133px; /* logo height */
}

[Duramax 6.6L]

#header .line1 {
position: relative;
height: 145px;
direction: ltr;
}
#header .line1 .logo {
padding-top: 9px;
margin-left: 27px;
width: 203px;
}
#header .line1 .logo a img {
width: 444px;
height: 133px;
}

Try this
