    How to upgrade cubecart.

    Step 1: Backup your database and files.

    Please, create a FULL backup of the database and site files.
    In order to backup your CubeCart application you have to:

    Step 1a. Backup all your files

    Backup all of your files and folders inside your CubeCart installation. Please, click here to learn how to create a backup of your files and folders

    Step 2b. Backup/Export your database

    Then, you have to export your CubeCart database. You can do that by using PHPMyAdmin.

    Once you've reached the phpMyAdmin tool, backup/restore your MySQL database.

    Once you have the CubeCart installation files and the database exported on your hard drive, you have your CubeCart backed up! Congratulations!

    tep 2: Download your newest CubeCart version.

    Now, download your newest CubeCart version and extract the archive file to your local computer. Upload every file from the Uploads folder over to your existing files except the ones listed below:

    Code:
    includes/global.inc.php
    install/
    language/*/home.inc.php
    So basically, you need to overwrite all the files except the above ones. You can use your favorite FTP client in order to upload/overwrite your files.

    Step 2: Run the upgrade.php scritp

    You then need to run the upgrade.php scripts (if there are any). To do this, you need to know which version you were running previously.Have a look in the /upgrade/scripts/ folder to see if there are any relevant ones. If so start with the oldest one and copy it to the root folder of your store. Run this file in your browser and follow the on screen instructions. Repeat this process overwriting each upgrade.php script at a time until there are no more.

    E.g. IANA — Example domains

    So, since you are upgrading from 3.0.8 to 3.0.15 here are the steps:

    Upload the first upgrade.php file from 3.0.{6-10}-3.0.11 directory of 3.0.15 CubeCart archive to your 3.0.8 CubeCart main folder:

    E.g. IANA — Example domains

    Run the script:


    Delete the upgrade.php file and upload the next one from the 3.0.11-3.0.12/ folder of your 3.0.15 CubeCart to your 3.0.8 CybeCart main folder:

    E.g. IANA — Example domains

    Run the script:


    Delete the upgrade.php file and upload the next one from the 3.0.12-3.0.13/ folder of your 3.0.15 CubeCart to your 3.0.8 CybeCart main folder:

    E.g. IANA — Example domains

    Run the script:


    Step 4: Your store is now upgraded.

    Step 5: You may need to re-apply any modifications you have made.

    Well done! You have successfully upgraded your Cubecart system!
