Hi All Friend,

Plse advise if I do a total fresh ( not upgrade nor any dbase need to be upgrade at all ) install, what is the step, I'd read the xoops-2.0.14/release_note.txt, it only show as follow :

Installing XOOPS

1. Copy the content of the htdocs/ folder where it can be accessed by your server
2. Ensure mainfile.php, cache, templates_c and uploads are writable by the webserver
3. Access the folder where you installed the htdocs/ files using your web browser to launch the installation wizard

Question :
It's means just move the htdocs all file back ( ../ ) to root folder, and the question is when execute installation, i should use http://mydomain.com/ or http://mydomain.com/upgrade ? if i use the first method : http://mydomain.com to install this ver ( 2.0.14 ), after that do I need to run the upgrade again, and do I need to remove all content of upgrage folder after upgrade ? and do I need to remove xoops_md5.php & xoops_md5 also ?

Plse advise. Thanks in advance ! Cheers!

Do these three steps. There is no need to upload or run the upgrade, you are doing a fresh install.

Information straight from the release notes:

Quote:
Files integrity check

XOOPS is now released with an experimental script able to check if all the system files were correctly uploaded to the server. To use it, follow these instructions:

1. Upload the xoops_md5.php and xoops.md5 files located in the XOOPS package root to your XOOPS server folder (putting them next to mainfile.php).
2. Execute xoops_md5.php with your browser
3. If necessary, re-upload the missing or corrupted system files
4. Remove xoops_md5.php and xoops.md5 from your server

They are coding notices, nothing to worry about. You can hide them by going to preferences and turn off debugging information. Error notices are what you need to worry about, if you have them

You don't even need to upload the upgrade directory, if you did, you can delete it.
