How do I update mibew

(1/1)

venu:
I currently have an 1.6.4 version running in production. How do I update it to 1.6.7.

Hi!

To update Mibew one should follow the steps described in the README file that is included in the archive.

You should:


* backup your database, code and avatars
* wipe out the old installation replacing it with the new one
* restore your database connection settings in the libs/config.php file
* restore your avatars (place them into images/avatar directory)
* update the database structure (just visit http://<your domain>/<path to mibew>/install/ and click at the appropriate link)
* remove install/ directory

Hello,

I follow the above, but I have a problem.
My installation is installed in the folder /webim
When I run the install, it is telling me that the $webimroot should be "/webim"
The fact is that the config.php has the following line in : $webimroot = "/webim";

If I upload the 1.6.7, put my config.php and images and avatars and run, I get an error because the software do not go to the sub-folder to find the Mibew and look for it in the root of the domain.

Is there a new config.php somewhere in the 1.6.7?


Thanks,

No, you didn't.   ;)

You've keeped your old config.php, while you had to change the one that comes with the distribution.

And I bet that Mibew told you that $mibewroot should be "/webim".
