When I upgrade from 3.1.15 to 3.2.0, I am not sure as to which old directories/files needs to be deleted before unzipping the new zip package.

If you could let me know as to which folders/files needs to be deleted before unzipping the 3.2.0 package over my existing installation of SilverStripe 3.1.15 would be great.

Hi JamesWilliam,

I posted the following to a similar question yesterday.

You were previously able to copy across the "CMS" and "Framework" folders, then /dev/build?flush.
That alone should do the trick, unless there are some major code changes.

However with 3.2, some changes were made which split off a few things.
Looks like "siteConfig" and "reports" will need to be copied across too.

Of course, keep an eye on your error logs and correct any errors that come up. You may fine permissions will need to be adjusted.

Hi James,

Helen's procedure worked for me. One note though - I needed to delete the old folders completely to get it to work. At first I renamed then as "Framework-old" but that gave me errors. Just remove them and upload the new version.

Cheers,

Alan

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

@acoggins exactly what I meant. If I do not delete any folders and just unzip the new package it gives me the following error :

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'There are two files containing the "ReportAdmin" class: "/{PATH}/{TO}/reports/code/ReportAdmin.php" and "/{PATH}/{TO}/cms/code/controllers/ReportAdmin.php"' in /{PATH}/{TO}/framework/core/manifest/ClassManifest.php:569 Stack trace: #0 [internal function]: SS_ClassManifest->handleFile('ReportAdmin.php', '/{PATH}/{TO}/publ...', 3) #1 /{PATH}/{TO}/framework/filesystem/FileFinder.php(158): call_user_func(Array, 'ReportAdmin.php', '/{PATH}/{TO}/publ...', 3) #2 /{PATH}/{TO}/framework/core/manifest/ClassManifest.php(338): SS_FileFinder->find('/{PATH}/{TO}/publ...') #3 /{PATH}/{TO}/framework/core/manifest/ClassManifest.php(162): SS_ClassManifest->regenerate(true) #4 /{PATH}/{TO}/framework/core/Core.php(100): SS_ClassManifest->__construct('/{PATH}/{TO}/publ...', false, true) #5 /{PATH}/{TO}/framework/main.php(129): require_once('/{PATH}/{TO}/ in /{PATH}/{TO}/framework/core/manifest/ClassManifest.php on line 569

However, when I delete "CMS" and "Framework" folders and then unzip the new package it works. I just wanted to confirm is there any other directory/file which needs to be deleted. This should solve the issue.

Thank you once again.
