guest* Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 It is very simple to upgrade your project PS 1.2. to PS 1.6.X.Simply upgrade manually. You don't need to do any export. How to: Upgrade database only - PS versions 1.2., PS 1.3., PS 1.4., PS 1.5. and also PS 1.6. latest version:Before upgrade: a - download upgrade package from HERE: http://www.prestasho...lopers-versions. Unpack zip-file to your local hard-drive. b - save your database as back-up, save your FTP - Preferably both externally on your own hard drive.Upgrade: a - Delete all the folders and files from your the FTP EXCLUDING /config (whole folder, subfolders and files) and /img (whole folder, subfolders and files) b - Upload the unpacked download from the new Prestashopversion to your FTP EXCLUDING /img/p and /img/c c - type in your browser the following link: yourdomain/install/upgrade/upgrade.php. d - upgrade processes begin and after it is ready a "done" site will quit the process as successful. e - close this browser windows to close also the session and cookies which are logged. f - On your FTP delete the folder /install g - and rename the folder /admin h - log in as usual: your domain/renamedadmin/ i - regenerate all your images from tab -> preferences -> imagesPlease be aware that if you have an own theme for your shop or bought modules (also free), they will not work after you upgrade from bigger versions. This means: third party extras of PS 1.3 will not work on PS 1.4, third party extras of PS 1.4 will not work on PS 1.5, third party extras from PS 1.5. will not work on PS 1.6. If you are having problems with your upgraded shop, so remind to use the possibility of debugging-features on board, which is: activate the following debug lines in your file /config/defines.inc.php: /* Debug only */ define('_PS_MODE_DEV_', true); if (_PS_MODE_DEV_) { @ini_set('display_errors', 'on'); define('_PS_DEBUG_SQL_', true); /* Compatibility warning */ define('_PS_DISPLAY_COMPATIBILITY_WARNING_', true); } Please do not activate debugging BEFORE UPGRADE IS COMPLETED ! This is only to debug AFTER an UPGRADE. If you upgrade older versions to PS 1.6. manually, than possibly you will have a smarty_lazy_cache problem. How to add this missing tables to your database you will find here: https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/555189-ps_smarty_lazy_cache-doesnt-exist/?do=findComment&comment=2402475 I've already upgraded several PS 1.2., PS 1.3, PS 1.4., PS 1.5 and also PS 1.6. in same release, if 1-click module fails with jqXHR error by this way without having any issues. After manual upgrade please also clear your cache (smarty and browser) and take into consideration to reset your modules, as they after upgrade could get stuck. Good luck. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PureLoneWolf Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Hi I have tried with the last two versions of 1.5 and it fails with a server error. I am now trying the version that the OP specified as a preference. Do we really overwrite the config folder though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRossell Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 On 9/3/2013 at 5:21 PM, corint1 said: dont work for me ... Fatal error: Class 'PrestaShopException' not found in /home/doiplus2/public_html/install/classes/exception.php on line 28 happens the same with me. I have tried with the last version but it fails with a timeout. when I tried with the version specified the OP I got that error. I have a 1.4.1.0 so I expected to have some trouble. since neither the last version nor the preferred by the OP have worked I'm going to try all versions starting from 1.4.4 and see if I get lucky at some point but I would prefer a better and more reliable solution.

User1234567891 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 So, if I am correct, you cannot upgrade from 1.3.. to 1.5 without loss of your complete theme and installed modules? Which means you have to build a complete new shop again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerhardus Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Please can you help? I am sitting with PS 1.4.3 and need to upgrade but the 1-click upgrade does not work.I have read your post on the manual upgrade but is not sure on how to upgrade as the instructions is not very clear. I can see that I must use the old config and image files to upgrade. Do I need to install a new ver first before importing the config/image files?When and how do I use the old db.Thanks.

selectshop.at Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 We made several manual upgrades with the a.m. instruction, why I also posted it. Keep in mind that if you have made changes on core or database, added new tables or features to the database the upgrade can fail. In this case before you upgrade you should deinstall ALL not native modules and than on this database make the manual upgrade. My instruction is written for upgrades only for the native software and older Prestashop versions to latest 1.5. IT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR UPGRADES INSIDE PS 1.5 to PS 1.5 or minor versions inside a major release. For this please use the 1-click upgrade module which do not fail if the software ist original. In case of doubt deinstall all modules not native and try an upgrade with the 1-click-module. Afterwards you can install the non-native modules again and see if they are working or making troubles. From our experience most of the problems caused by failed upgrades are adaptations/overrides and not native modules changing the core of Prestashop. @ gerhardus - please follow step-by-step the instructions. Quote a - Delete all the folders and files from your the FTP EXCLUDING /config (whole folder, subfolders and files) and /img (whole folder, subfolders and files) Before this make a back-up of database and FTP Quote b - save your database as back-up, save your FTP - Preferably both externally on your own hard drive.

mdouka Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Hello, the process worked almost fine for me. I have upgraded PS 1.4.8.2 to PS 1.5.6.2. Everything worked fine, apart from the fact that I cannot see the product images in the front end. I see all my products in the back office, thumbnails and everything but in the front end all images have gone. I will try to work it out, meantime if anyone has any idea please let me know. I have the feeling that my front office is looking at a different path. Kind regards, Marianna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdouka Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Hello again, I've found the solution to my problem quickly and easily, so I'd like to share it with you. I've noticed that the new installation of PS 1.5.6.2 according to the steps described by "PrestaShop Legend" did not have on the backoffice images in the form of "home_default", "large_default" etc but instead I had "home", "large" etc. So I created new image types with the correct names and afterwards I asked PS to regenerate thumbnails and everything worked fine!

foarteiute Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) Hi guys, I try to find someone (prestashop employee or a company) who can upgrade a PS 1.2.5.0 to (at least) PS 1.5.3.1 (preferably 1.6). I`m paying for this project, but I need it to be done without "after" problems and I want him (or them) to guarantee that after this upgrade I will have ALL MY DATABASE (categories, products,order,customers,invoices etc). If someone is interested, please send me a PM. Thank you. Edited May 26, 2014 by foarteiute (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paradate Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Is there a module I can buy that upgrades automatically from 1.2.4 to the latest version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmef Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Hi, I did the upgrade as described above by prestashop team "how to upgrade manuaally version 1.2.5 to 1.5.3". I changed also the info in the file for debug but the problem is still not resolved. All my images, products, modules , categories are not visible. during install, I was tald to delete all the tabs of the database to continue. Then I uploaded the database backup from myAdmin panel completly without errors. After thant the frontend shows a store as it's a new shop without example products and all the modules are show. When I click on the modules tab, I get the message : Fatal error: Access level to dibs::$smarty must be protected (as in class PaymentModule) or weaker in /home/parisfol/public_html/boutique/modules/dibs/dibs.php on line 404[PrestaShop] Fatal error in module dibs:Access level to dibs::$smarty must be protected (as in class PaymentModule) or weaker now, I can'ty access to the modules neither to my images, products and catyegories. Many months of work spent with the last message to build the store. Do you have a real solution to get my store visible really ? If it continues, I can't stay blocked and I have to make a restore backup of my old store v 1.2;5 because I dont'have time to spend again many weeks to rebuild a store. Thanks for any help. The store is : www.Parisfollowme.com/boutique to see the result after the manual upgrade adviced above. I dit 3 times and I spent2 days to try 3 times. It takes too much time to upload and try to make test and search to find a solution... contact AT winaoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spighi Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Hi, Would this work for upgrading from 1.1 to 1.6? I have an old store with ~1000 products I''m trying to update it to the latest version. What I mostly care for is being able to export the products into the new version even if I lose the orders and customers. Is this possible?
