I am an absolute beginner and
so far, what I understood is:
- make backup : I copied the site to a desktop file
- execute upgrade script : I downloaded, extracted, opened the file in Webmatrix and I pressed CTRL A and CTRL C to copy it
- opened the file with the old site copied the DB in another file
- opened file old DB in Webmatrix, pressed new DB at the bottom, new query, pasted the upgrade script with CTRL V and pressed Execute in top bar
- in a new file : I downloaded the new version, extracted it and added App_Data installedPlugins.txt and settings.txt from the very first version of the site
- so the new file has nothing but the App_Data installedPlugins.txt and settings.txt from earlier original version
- Questions / what I miss to understand : is the only thing you upgrade the DB ? How do you integrate the executed DB in the new version ?
- I have tried very hard, by copying and pasting parts of the other two updates that were made earlier by someone else - but I can not run the new version
Thank you for assisting !
