Rhapsody Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I just upgraded two of my shops from 1.4.4.0 to 1.4.5.1 using Autoupgrade. This worked great! I have themes that started as 1.4.4 compatible. One of my shops has some custom overrides in classes/ (customer.php, PDF.php, and Tools.php) and in controllers/ (AddressController.php and AuthController.php). I have added more fields for registration on one shop that is used as online registration for a club. It collects data in fields that used to be submitted on a paper form and store the data in the ps_customer table. It is also used to send a printable customized membership card using some of the extra field data when the customer orders and pays for membership. These changes used to be done as mod to the Core but I converted them to overrides previously when I was on 1.4.3 - I'm glad I did because the upgrade process took less than 2 minutes including a manual database backup in case the autobackup feature didn't work. This used to take me over an hour to update because I would manually compare all the files, then insert the changes to any of the new files that were changed from the old files I had modded. What I don't know yet is how the mods I've made to any modules are handled. A quick check of the shop indicates these mods were left in tact, but I'll need to verify the files to make sure. In order to do the Autoupgrade I needed to manually take the shop offline. I thought Autoupgrade would do that, but no big deal to inactivate and reactivate manually. Thanks Prestashop team for greatly simplifying the update process! ps - my shop does not use memcache or filesystem cache because I can't get either of them to work, so I am not impacted by the cache comments above.

philee Posted October 14, 2011 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 @indus Yeah, I disabled all cache prior to upgrade. @Rhapsody Good to see the upgrade worked for you. I wished it worked for me like it works flawlessly you for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhobur Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Hi, After successfully installing the autoupdate on my 14.4.0 I also encounter the problem of Update option not showing in the Tools tab, no matter what I do; I have checked with my provider and they say that "allow_url_fopen = On" is On. I cannot de install the module it gives "Fatal error " ( at least on the online test site, I didn't try on the real one ). What could be the problem ?

xnitrorc Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Hi Guys, Solved it thought i would put my findings up even though it was a stupid mistake on my part, when i did it manually i placed my new installation in a a folder calle "dev" when i updated it it updated my main site files so when i deleted them and replaced everything in the root from the "dev" folder. Everything was fine except for one slight difference in the COOKIE_KEY replaced it with the settings.inc.php that was created on the main site during install and it works perfectly now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asenar Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 If you experiencing troubles when installing autoupgrade module, you may have to uninstall / re-install it. If the module still not appear in a subtab of Tools, that's a bug of the previous prestashop version about tab position, but you may have access to it by using the url /admin/index.php?tab=AdminSelfUpgrade (you will have a warning message about invalid token but you can continue) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philee Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 Michael, I can't thank you enough for taking time assisting me and every other member that needs assistance with this upgrade. In regards to the missing category tree, this is now fixed thanks to Michael. Turns out there was errors and a missing file in the classes folder. I must say I am really enjoying what the Prestashop developer team implemented for 1.4.5.1. They really knocked out many of the bugs in the previous version. Also, I noticed an increase in page loading speed for the back-office and runs much smooth than the previous versions. Great work Michael and to the rest of the Prestashop team!

jpOnline Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I am having issues after an attempted auto upgrade failed, I manually upgraded files and manually ran install/upgrade. Now I have lost ability to choose default category for products (product must be in the default category), and cannot move category default to anywhere but home (the field id_parent is invalid), after changing to home, then category default cannot be changed further except manually in the DB. Any clues anyone? Is it possible to re-install code from scratch and save 10K products which we have spent weeks importing? ie; will exporting the category and product tables, doing a fresh install and reimporting category and product tables work? Or do I completely start from the beginning again? 1 error:product must be in the default category Also when i try to change category parent i get this error: the field id_parent is invalid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
