I am completely new to all of this MYSQL stuff, so the instructions don't make sense to me:

Basic Upgrade

  1. Backup at least the "/config" directory or all files.

  2. Unzip the files and place them on your webserver.

  3. Restore the old "config.php".

Advanced Upgrade

  1. Backup your database, at least the "addressbook" + "user" tables.

  2. Apply the database patches fromm "./upgrades".

  3. Have a look at "_INSTALL.txt" for new features.

My questions
1) I assume this is talking about the files in the _upgrade folder that go from addressbook_upgrade_v12_v20.sql to addressbook_upgrade_v70_v80.sql

2) They are already unzipped so what am I unzipping?

3) Where do I place them on the webserver? They are already there in the _upgrade folder unzipped to begin with.

4) Do they activate all by themselves?

5) I am still trying to figure out the error I get when trying to run the php.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/kings30/public_html/UplandCoC/addbook/include/login.inc.php on line 3
Stated in another post on here.
