Upgrading Omnistar CMS

Generally, upgrading is a simple matter of uploading all the files that have been updated from the previous version.

VERY IMPORTANT!

You must backup before upgrading. At a minimum, we recommend backing up your data/ and uploads/ directories and your mySQL database.

If you do not know how to backup your mySQL data, contact your web host for assistance.

Upgrading to latest version

To upgrade to the latest version, make the following changes to your [cmsAdmin] folder (the folder on your website where you originally installed the software):

1) Upload these files:

    /[cmsAdmin]/*.* (all files)

2) Make sure these files and directories are writable: (if you haven't already done so)

    /[cmsAdmin]/data/schema/*.* (all files)
    /[cmsAdmin]/data/schemaPresets/*.* (all files)
    /[cmsAdmin]/uploads/ (directory only)
    /[cmsAdmin]/uploads/thumb/ (directory only - create directory if needed)
    /[cmsAdmin]/uploads/thumb2/ (directory only - create directory if needed)
    /[cmsAdmin]/uploads/thumb3/ (directory only - create directory if needed)
    /[cmsAdmin]/uploads/thumb4/ (directory only - create directory if needed)

3) (Optional) Delete these folders and their contents:

    /[cmsAdmin]/lib/tinyMCE/
    /[cmsAdmin]/tinyMCE/
