Upgrading step by step !!!

[JPL]

this is much easer to do i think that we have our selves a easy solution thnx LABS

[BoBoD]

I agree with you, it's quite difficult to upgrade it and anytime can appear any error(s) and distroy your work.

For Developers:
For the future release can be done from BO, under administration user, as user pooz.dk said ?

Thanks.

Upgrading PrestaShop really sucks.

Why does it have to be so hard, difficult, and slow?? :shut:

Think about doing like WordPress, where you can upgrade from within the administration.
And this is very easy and powerful.

I am trying to upgrade from 1.1.0.5 to 1.2.5 now and there is no progress. I stopped upgrading before (1.1.0.5> 1.2.3 I believe) because after 45min running the upgrade nothing changed. At the moment, the update is active for 30 minutes and again no progress. How long do I have to wait more?

[Mallee Boy]

Have you solved this problem?

[Genosha]

Nope, haven't solved. The update mentioned in my previous page has been running for 1hr+ and nothing happend.

Did you follow the steps from here:

[diamond204]

what about installing new version as a fresh install and then replace changed files and folders

and then import CSV and Lang ??

will that work?? can I export products, categories, etc and then import them to the new version along with the language CSV ???

Hey Guys,

I did try to upgrade and it went ok but when i try to go to website or admin, it gives me following error message
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I have tried to change permission to 777 but did not work also tried to change config file , tool/smarty/ etc to 755 but nothing seems to be working.

Anybody there who can help....

looking forward to hearing from you...

thanks,
om

hey guys,

I finally found the way to upgrade using following way

i found this video… .when i was searching on the net…

http://vimeo.com/22111490

may be usefull… i am going to try this in the evening…

but, when i try to upgrade it on my local environment it started giving another message...

that "This application need you to activate Javascript to correctly work. " i don't understand, i have everything although when i am trying to upgrade from 1.3 to 1.4 it gives me such error message.

i have re-installed javascript...too..

can any one please help...

look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.

thanks,
om

[ontljoshi]

Hi guys,

this is completely annoying..... thing...

no body faced such issue.... i am surprised.

Also, just few minutes ago... i tried fresh install and this is amazing and weired...

for a fraction of a second "This application need you to activate Javascript to correct work" appeared and then straight directed to 1st step of installation and all the buttons are visible.

When you try to upgrade it gives the same error and takes you to 1st step of installation but buttons at the bottom are not visible.

honestly i haven't done any new installation of javascript or anything...

this is completely annoying... on top of that not much support.....from the forum.

look forward to hearing from you

thanks,
om

[Aldeag]

I also got that half a second javascript message, but I succesfully updated without any problem.

[ontljoshi]

Hey,

good to know.... that you managed to upgrade your version. I am wondering if you could guide me how did you manage to upgrade

look forward to hearing from you.

thanks,
om

I just downloaded and follow the instrucctions here:
http://www.prestashop.com/download/PrestaShop-Reference_Guide-Updating_PrestaShop-110530b-en.pdf

Though I now have some problems that I have to explain in another post so everybody knows...

[theme_designer]

If someone has the prestashop template for 1.3 version, will it work OK after upgrading to 1.4 version?

[jamesian]

Hi there.

 

Are these instructions still accurate for upgrading to version 1.4.6.2? If not could someone point me to the correct instructions in the forums? I've never upgraded PrestaShop before and want to make sure to do it correctly so my client's site doesn't go down :-)

 

Thanks for your help!

[jamesian]

Anybody monitoring these forums? I asked if these upgrade instructions work for the latest version a week ago and have seen no response. A simple yes or no would be fine. And if "no" a link to the best instructions for the latest version would be simply awesome. Thanks so much!

[imran cheema]

[marky96]

I have just tried to upgrade to the latest Prestashop version by uploading all files via FTP and then use the upgrade script. The front office looks fine and I got all products descriptions and so on in the store, however, I can't access the admin folder. When I try to do so I only get a blank page. Any idea what to do?

[dj_arif]

nice info thanks............

[newbie87]

Hello,

I upgraded from 1.4.9 to 1.5.1 using the one step upgrade feature in 1.4. Thereafter, I had 340 some missing files and all of my products disappeared- led to 404 errors. I tried to reverse the upgrade but the script hung up about 1/3 of the way through. I exited the site and got an error when trying to log in again.

I have uploaded the files from 1.5 to the server again. But, am not sure how to proceed from here. There is no admin folder in v. 1.5 and I can not access the location where shop files are stored from the web site. But, I can access the install folder from the web. Should I do a comptetely new install? Or, are there certain files I can upload to get this working again? If I do a fresh install can I get P/S to use the existing database?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I get lost in step 5

[benwiggy]

Is this post from 2008 still relevant to the latest version of Prestashop? Given how everything changes each version...

best would be a damn good step by step tutorial for upgrading 1.4.x-1.4.0 --> brand new 1.4.10

&

1.4.x ---> 1.5.x

 

The forum is full of problems users ran into while trying to upgrade so I wouldnt be the worst idea to give

us a safe to follow script.
