Wow, that is a massive changelog. I'm *really* looking forward to thoroughly playing with this release.

I've just upgraded a 2.1.1 website that I'm currently developing. The process is relatively painless, just don't forget to enable devmod in _config.php before you rebuild the database.

Cheers guys (especially the GSOC students!)

How to upgrade ?

I'm having trouble upgrading...

I've followed the info in the upgrading section of the docs, but I've had no luck.

I've done a fresh install of 2.1.1 on a Windows platform.
( after un-installing existing version & restarted windows )

Replaced the 3 folders as instructed.

Refreshed the db - all looked ok.

Can get to the Home/About-Us/Contact page's OK, but when I click from there to go into the CMS it just lock up on the SS loading logo.

TIA - Dave Porter

Hi everyonel,

I thought I'd try installing on a server rather than on my local windows machine and all went very well...

Tried the CMS in Opera(9.24), IE(7) & FF(2)

Some observations...

1. Layout in Opera was a bit ugly ( bottom left links: Page view: Edit etc... ). And the site report section didn't come up.

2. IE7 OK, but when I clicked on 'Published Site' link, it refreshed the current tab page instead of opening a new tab page.

3. Previous to this version I found that the drop down control for paragraph, h1, h2 etc... did not work in IE7, but it appears fine now !

4. FF2, all looked 100% - so guess which Browser I'll continue using :))

Cheers, Dave Porter

FYI, uploading files in SilverStripe 2.2.0rc1 is problematic on Mac and Linux machines (i.e. not Windows) due to a bug in flash. Andrew is working to solve this :)

Dave, we don't test the cms in opera so its highly likely that it would break. As long as its not a major issue (like the whole interface crashes) I don't think we will be fixing it anytime soon sadly due to time. But you might want to make a ticket on open.silverstripe.com and maybe someone would provide a patch!

Not a problem with Opera - just reporting what I found...
regards, Dave
