Hi Davide, Preamble: The files inside the config folder define the config of your application. Normally the contents of the app folder as a whole don´t change with new version of cake - except between releases (e.g. meaning that going from v 3100 to v 3101 would probably mean no changes to the app/config folder at all). If a new feature is included in Cake, it is possible that for example a new constant is defined in app/config/core.php.
Personally, I use the following (potentially flawed) upgrade approach backup app/config folder, replace the cake folder, replace the app/config folder replace the app/* folders overwrite the app/config folder with the backup (so that my version of the config files exist, but don´t miss any new files should there be any). Then, if there are any funny errors: compare the files in your app/config folder to check nothing is missing (such as the changes some weeks/months/eons ago to the database and inflections files which introduced new parameters). Regarding your query: The bootstrap is just one of the files in the config folder, and I´m guessing you only changed the database and bootstrap files within it. The problem you describe would be compounded if you made changes to any of the other files there and followed the upgrade process you mention. In this case I think you would probably quickly change your approach to stop redefining your changes to the core, inflections, bootstrap etc. files ;) However, and I am but one person with an optionion, I think what would be useful is a page in the manual on how to upgrade (does it already exist? I coudn't find it if so), as although it´s a pretty simple process people do it in different ways and leaping a few hundred build numbers can mean that an app stops working just because of missing constants. Other thoughts? Cheers, AD7six --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
