Title: 1.1 board from a 1.0.5 DB
Post by: robert.roy on November 23, 2005, 07:41:09 PM
I have a 1.0.5 DB with no current install.  I would like to have a 1.1 board when I am done.  Logic would have it that  to get there I would have to install 1.0.5 with my current 1.0.5 DB then go through the update process.  Can I skip a step?  For example, can I put the 1.1 update package over the 1.1 install package and then hit the upgrade script?  Or, can I just go to the upgrade script and skip the original install?  Or am I stuck rebuilding 1.0.5 and then upgrading?  Thanks in advance.

As long as Settings.php contains all the correct information, you can just plop a 1.1 upgrade package on there and run upgrade.php.

Thanks.  That is exactly what I wanted to know.
