bigboy16 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 v 1.1 and v 1.2 have a different database structure... not generally but some...you must backup your product first with csv extension file... after you upgrade you can import the csv file to your site...

diamond204 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Hi - I posted this on another thread - you may find it usefull for upgrading (you will need to restore your backup (pre-version 1.2) database on your server, then follow the below:Hello,I wanted to post this as several important steps are missing from the Prestashop Upgrade wiki instructions.First off, as stated in the instructions, it is 100% mission critical that you backup 1) Your Database, and 2) your entire shop to your computer.1.) To backup the database, click on the TOOLS tab, then DATABASE BACKUP. Click on “+ CREATE NEW BACK-UP” then click on “DOWNLOAD THE BACKUP FILE” – save to your computer.2.) Backup your full shop by either downloading it via FTP or use another method. Also be sure to download it to your computer.Using an FTP program, RENAME your existing shop folder to a new folder (ex. Rename /shop to /shopOLDThis is also clearly stated in the Prestashop install and upgrade wiki – follow the full set of upgrade instructions listed on the wiki:http://www.prestashop.com/wiki/Installing_And_Updating_PrestaShop_Software/The wiki leaves off at the Install process…and where this will continue…On the first Installation screen where it asks you if you want to perform a full installation or an update installation, choose UPDATE (disregard “Get the latest stable version” – no re-download will occur).Note: If the Update option is greyed out or unavailable , you will need to re-upload your old “settings.inc.php” file from your backups /config directory and overwrite the new version on your server – then re-install – it should now be available.You will need to Certify that you have everything backed up- click NEXT on the permissions screen.NOTE TO SAVE TIME AND TROUBLE : Do NOT perform the FULL installation, then try to connect with your database – when you move up to a newer version your database must be CONVERTED – and that is exactly what the UPDATE process does! grinYou are done with the basic upgrade!Back Office: Do the icons display correctly on the tabs? If not, you will need to re-upload the icons from your new version of Prestashop found in /img/t into the same folder of your new updated online version.Does your theme display ok? If not it is likely that you have modified files from the root directory such as header.tpl or footer.tpl. This will most likely break your theme with a new version of Prestashop.Experiment by creating a new folder called TEST in your online THEMES folder, and copy your existing theme to it. Upload files from the default template in the new version (from your hard drive) Begin with header.tpl, then footer.tpl and overwrite their counterparts in the new folder you just created.In the PREFERENCES tab, select TEST as your theme and then view it in your Front Office. Does it display properly? If yes, then you have found the culprit files. You will need to re-modify the new versions of the files. If the shop does not display properly, continue to copy more files from the default shop to the TEST directory until you find which file(s) are causing the issue.
