josemoreira Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hi,LIZZYB I don´t known how we should upgrading Oscommerce, but i did a cherch in web and i achieve the following information, it can be useful for you: osCommerce Knowledge Base Top » osCommerce » Installation and Upgrades Upgrading osCommerce Last Update: 8th June, 2005 Article ID: 221 • Introduction • Configuration Steps Introduction If you are upgrading from ms1 to ms2 code, you will need to update the PHP files and move the data from the old database to the new database. Configuration Steps • Install files Begin the upgrade by installing the new osCommerce version in another folder in your server space. Do this by following the Pre-Installation Procedure • Migrate data Next, copy the old database over to the new database by using a tool such as phpMyAdmin or similar utility. • Run Update File In the "extras" folder in the osCommerce download and there is a folder named pr21_to_pr22, which holds the file ms1_to_ms2.php. Copy this file to your catalog folder or root folder on your server space where the new osCommerce files are. It can be renamed if desired, such as to 'upgrade.php'. Copy this upgrade file to the catalog directory and navigate to it with a web browser. It will ask for the new database info and then will upgrade all needed files. This will upgrade the database for your new osCommerce ms2 files. After you test your new files you can then remove the old files and old database. Make sure everything was moved over before deleting the old files! How helpful is this article?

♥geoffreywalton Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 ereg does not work with the version of php you are using. There is a "new" command that should be used to do this.

MrPhil Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 @LizzyB, don't even think about upgrading to osC 3 yet. It is far from finished, and is subject to major changes before (and if) it becomes a finished product. Just stick with your 2.2, and try to incorporate the changes made up through the final release of 2.2 (RC2a). Get a clean copy of whatever your system started out as (e.g., 2.2 MS2) unzipped onto your PC, and likewise a clean copy of 2.2 RC2a, and compare the two. Manually install the changes into your code (once you understand what they're doing). You may wish to do the same with the "github" repository, but be more selective there (e.g., just the ereg() fixes). There are also other bug fixes and enhancements floating around this forum which may or may not ever show up in github, such for MySQL 5, and the navigation history bug.
