First you need to figure out what has changed in the config.php file.
A detailed description of the config.php is shown at the Installation guide.
Update from any Version to the latest version
After completing the following checklist, you should have no problems running the latest version.
- Download the latest version
- Modify config.php
- Upload new files and overwrite old files
- Run update.php
- modify everything until the update process can be started (the update.php will tell you which checks failed)
- Select your current version from which the tool should be updated to the latest version. If your version is not listed, you do not need to run that file!
- After a successful update you need to delete the update.php and install.php files.
- After updating from any version below 4.0 to the latest version, delete your old tables. They are not needed any more.
prerequisites to upgrade to version 4.0
- Make a backup of all needed notices, notices will not be imported to the new version!
- Rename the alliances at allyhistory to its corresponding names. Otherwise the alliance history won't be imported to the new version. You would only be able to see the player history, but not the history of your alliance.
- Do not interrupt the update process, it will take a while!
Note: version 4.0 is not available yet
