theothersimon Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Quick question:I need to upgrade a 1.2.5 install to the most recent: 1.3.5. Should I do incremental upgrades - assuming I can still get hold of incremental back versions of Presta, or am I able to go straight from 1.2.5 to 1.3.5? Appreciate the wisdom of someone who knows! Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossdavidh Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Sorry for the slow reply. The upgrade process will detect your current version an apply all the SQL for every upgrade between your current version and the new one, so no need to do all the versions in between yourself.On the other hand, it IS very important to follow the advice in the documentation about saving your old version and backing up your database before upgrading. This way, if the upgrade doesn't work as you expect, you can fall back to the old version. Upgrading is a good thing to do (for the security fixes if for no other reason), but it is not uncommon to have problems. So, think through how you will back out the changes (e.g. once you have made a backup of your database, do you know how to restore it?) before upgrading.But, at least you don't have to do it for every version in between your current one and the newest!
