I searched the groups here on how to upgrade an existing site to a newer version of CakePHP. I found a post on the subject, and was going to reply, but the topic was too old. So, here's a new topic on what I found.
First off, always make backups before you doing anything like this. I extracted the new version of CakePHP over my site. I chose to overwrite all files. Almost everything I did to my application was done with new files (controllers, models, and views) and I knew they wouldn't be overwritten. However, I did have to edit core.php to change the debug mode. I imagine some people may need to do something with app_controller.php or others if they customized it. I try not to edit the core CakePHP files for this reason. Next, I went through and tested all the basic functions of my site to make sure they were working. I had some minor issues, but after reading the API, I figured out what needed to change. Now I have the functionality that I wanted by upgrading. Always backup first! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
