- You are using CPG v1.4.6
- You'll not loos a bit if you exactly do as suggested on
Upgrading from cpg1.4.0 (or better) to version cpg1.4.10 (http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#14)
I can't do it. Is anyone willig to do it for me, please :'( ?
Just read the documentation and do as suggested there, it's dead easy. And it's fun to learn new things, just try it.
Fine. How do I backup my database?

With a ftp client download them to your local computer
Or create a copy on your server somewhere else out of gallery folder
If you don't have phpMyAdmin (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=31423.msg145472#msg145472) available already, you might want to go for mySqlDumper (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=31423.msg145478#msg145478): it's easier to set up and handle for newbies and avoids issues with larger dumps.
We recommend using FileZilla (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=31423.msg145551#msg145551) as FTP app.
All of the above mentioned tools are free.
