Aldeag Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I followed the whole instructions to upgrade from 1.4.1 to 1.4.2.5 from here:http://www.prestashop.com/download/PrestaShop-Reference_Guide-Updating_PrestaShop-110530b-en.pdfThere are some little issues that didn´t avoid a successfull instalation. (You have to remember to change homepage_logo.jpg into prestashop/modules/editorial)When I almost finished, I had to move everything from the new prestashop folder (that I called /prestashop_1.4.2.5/) to my current prestashop folder (that I called /tiendaweb/) containing the old 1.4.1 version. (Step 5)I used Cyberduck with a Mac (a good FTP client)Some of the folders didn´t let to copy so I opted to delete all from the /tiendaweb/ (1.4.1) but some of the items didn´t deleted even changing the permisions that took too long to change.Then I thought: Why I don´t simply change the name to my new prestashop folder /prestashop_1.4.2.5/ to the name of the old one? So now the folder /prestashop_1.4.2.5/ is called /tiendaweb/BUT!Everything that was not a folder has dissapeared!! So I only get folders, but not the rest of the items in the main folder!!And my webshop has dissapeared! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldeag Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Yes! I made a backup before. And I´m uploading the old version to the old folder. And I think I will have to upload the new version that was in my computer to it´s new folder and update again. But I hope nothing is lost in the middle.And of course, rename a folder doesn´t seem to be well done, at least in my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool,We made a module to simplify the migration to a newer version.It's not perfect because it not make compatible all template if is not (like Prestashop 1.3 template don't become compatible for 1.4)But this module make a backup of your files and database before upgrade with the new version.http://www.prestatoolbox.com/administrative-tools/70-automatic-update-of-prestashop.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
