Upgrade IntegraMOD 1.4.0 to IntegraMOD 1.4.2
What to do before and during Upgrade

Preparations:

Before you start, make the following preparations:

  1. Make a backup of your database and all files of your IntegraMOD 1.4.0 forum.

  2. Read all documentation quietly and attentively.

  3. If it is possible, then firstly make a test upgrade with the made backup on a local station.
    Because of this you may find for yourself if you have to make extra updates for added MODS.

NOTE: Follow the instructions in the order which is given here. If the procedure is not followed,
this has impact on the adaptations of the database and the further correct functioning of your IntegraMOD site.

Step 1:

Login on your board as admin, and switch off your board by means of the administrator panel.
Remain logged in with the following steps.
Because only an admin can carry out the upgrade.

Step 2:

Remove all files of your web server, except for the files or directories and their contents from the next list.

NOTE: Overwriting of the config.php with the one from the package, will cause for big problems, as the config.php is needed to update the database witch is used by IntegraMOD. The spelling_config.php can be important when the spell database is an other than the database for IntegraMOD.

Step 3:

Upload all files, except for config.php, from IntegraMOD142_nl_en.tar.gz to your webspace.Be aware of the fact, never to overwrite a file with a file out of the IntegraMOD142_nl_en.tar.gz that you wanted to save.

Step 4:

Start-up the upgrade. Use the web address of your board, as the example indicates below.
http://www.my_domain.com/board_pad/install/upgrade.php

Step 5:

Delete the /install directory. IntegraMOD only working fully when the install directory is removed. Do not forget this.

Step 6:

This is one of the most important steps.
This step is OS depended.
When your Internet site is on a windows server, you can skip this step.
Windows systems have a different permissions system than Linux servers.
Because of this putting rights to files and directories on a windows server is not necessary.

Linux servers set rights to files.
Because IntegraMOD has to edit directories and files, IntegraMOD must get rights to write to those files and directories.
Have a look at http://www.my_domain.com/board_pad/docs/installatie.htm or Appendix 1 and Appendix 2.
Chmod all directory's and files like indicated there.
You can Chmod with most FTP programmes.

Last but not least

By means of the next link http://www.my_domain.com/board_pad/docs/instellingen.php
you can find more information concerning several settings which you can apply for your IntegraMOD board.

Good luck.
