Upgrading This is version 4.0lite. It is highly recommended you backup your database and globalvars.php file before attempting this upgrade. If something goes wrong your database can be permanantly lost. Instructions To correctly upgrade RW::Download on your server follow the steps below. 1. Delete all of the files and folders from your script directory except globalvars.php, the downloads folder and the temp folder if one exists. This is not essential but can be done to clean up the script directory since many files and folders are now redundant. 2. Upload all the files in UPLOAD folder to the scripts root directory except globalvars.php and install.php. If you over-write globalvars.php your database settings will be lost and you will not be able to upgrade. You should also upload the upgrade.php file from the upgrades folder into the script root directory. 3. CHMOD the following files and folders: - "www" - your server root folder You should also be able to chmod these files to 0666 if you prefer or have problems with 0777. 4. Go to www.yourwebsite.com/download/upgrade.php. Our new upgrade script should automatically detect your current version of RW::Download. If it does not please report it on our forums as this is the first time we have tried something like this. If it is correct then click continue. The script will then be upgraded. Any errors at this point should be reported on our forums. 5. After a successful upgrade DELETE THE "upgrade.php" FILE FROM YOUR SERVER! Although the upgrade file attempts to lock itself after upgrading it is still more secure if you remove the file completly. The lock will also sometimes fail to create if the script root is not writeable 6. Access the admin interface next by going to www.yourwebsite.com/download/admin.php and enter your username and password. 7. Done :) Support All support requests are handled via our forum.
