Transfer 1.4 to 1.5

[Jeroen07]

Hello,

I have a fucked up installation of Coppermine 1.5 (upgraded it from 1.4 but it doesn't work as i hoped it would).

Now, on this installation i have +10.000 of photo's and ofcourse the similar database...

What i want to do is:

Make a fresh, completely new installation of Coppermine (on the same server/webhost), and migrate al the albums and photo's from the other installation to there...

How can i do this ?

The simplest way is the way described in the docs:
- delete all files expect the albums directory and the config.inc.php file
- upload all files from the cpg1.5.x package
- run update.php

Updating from 1.4 to 1.5, following the instructions. In addition to cpg14x_* tables cpg15x_* tables have been created, but they are empty. How to migrate the data to cpg15x_*? Thanks!

Sounds like you have installed a fresh copy instead of performing an upgrade. Edit your include/config.inc.php file to point to the cpg1.4.x database then run update.php and that should recover things.

Please start your own thread in future as it makes it easier for support.

Thank you for your reply. Did upgrade from 1.4 to 1.5, then 1.5 to 1.6, updated PHP to 7.3. All looks good.
