Topic: Upgrading to 0.3.0

Upgrading to 0.3.0 from 0.2.0

(If upgrading from 0.1.0, first upgrade to 0.2.0 before upgrading to 0.3.0.)

NOTE: This upgrade process should be considered EXPERIMENTAL.  Make a backup of your current tracmor directory before proceeding. Also, don't forget to make a backup of your tracmor database. Use the tool mysqldump, or a tool like MySQL Administrator or phpMyAdmin.

  1. Extract the tracmor-0.3.0 directory to the location of your original tracmor installation, and rename it to whatever your original tracmor directory was named (essentially replacing your old tracmor directory with the new one).

  2. Copy your original configuration.inc.php file to your new tracmor/includes directory.

  3. Execute data_model/db_update-0.3.0.sql on your tracmor database.

  4. In your web browser,  navigate to http://your_tracmor/admin/custom_field_helper_migration.php (replacing "your_tracmor" with the url of you tracmor installation). Then copy the SQL code that is output,  and execute it on your tracmor database (there may be no SQL output if you do not have any address custom fields.)

  5. Finally, navigate to http://your_tracmor/admin/asset_archive_update.php in your browser to update your location table to support asset archiving.

After performing the above steps, you should be able to log in and use your tracmor installation as normal.  If you experience any problems with this upgrade process,  please post in this forum so we can help troubleshoot.
