Update of /cvsroot/basedb/basedb In directory usw-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv21208 Modified Files: README Log Message: Restructured, hopefully for the better Index: README =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/basedb/basedb/README,v retrieving revision 1.9 retrieving revision 1.10 diff -C2 -d -r1.9 -r1.10 *** README 9 Sep 2002 10:29:56 -0000 1.9 --- README 30 Sep 2002 11:25:26 -0000 1.10 *************** *** 7,22 **** Here's what you need to do to get BASE running: Download, install, and configure Apache, MySQL, and PHP. ! Version requirements: ! Apache 1.3.x has been tested. Apache 2 might be tricky to get to work with ! PHP, but it has been done. MySQL 3.23.x (x > 40 or so) is know to work with BASE. We don't know if ! anyone has tested MySQL 4, but it's likely that it works. ! PHP 4.2.1 works, and 4.2.0 probably works too. Note that there is a security ! issue with 4.2.1, and you should use 4.2.2 or later. At the moment of writing, [...251 lines suppressed...] ! necessary changes to the database. --- 148,164 ---- ! Upgrading from an older version of BASE: ! Make a backup of your entire database before you do anything else. The best ! way to do this is probably to shut down MySQL and copy the database ! directories, and then start MySQL again. The easiest way to update the www and exec directories is to just move away the old directory tree and use the new files and configure BASE again (copy ! and edit the example_* files as described above). The only things you need ! to keep are the data directory and the database. As the database schema ! changes once in a while between versions, you'll need to run the script ! dbupdate.php (or dbupdate.pl, provided by Alan Shields for those of you who ! prefer perl), which will do the necessary changes to the database. It can be ! found in exec/migration_tools. |
