[Phpip-support] trying to install or upgrade to 4.2

[<php...@li...>]

Hi,

 

I already have an installed 3.2 version and want to upgrade to the newest
version.

 

I can install a clean new version onto the server, but what's the best way
to import the old database in 3.2 to this one?

 

I tried this:

 mysql newdatabase < oldatabasql.sql

But that didn't work, and looking at the database many of the old values are
slightly changed so it didn't import properly.

 

Or I can upgrade but I couldn't find any instructions on how to do this, I
attempted to do this by just coping over the new 4.2 version into the old
version directory, but when I ran the http://site/install.php it ran the
install but I couldn't select upgrade.

 

Any suggestions? I can do it either install method since the old site is
intact but I'm not quite getting it right.
