mammuten Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Someone uploaded a "index.html" file in the OSCommerce directory. I run "v2.2 RC2". Is there a later version, I noticed that I could download a version named "oscommerce-2.2rc2a". Is that the same version or a new one?
Guest Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Jan, V2.2 RC2a is a new version and has some security updates available for it to make it more secure. Chris
mammuten Posted July 20, 2010 Author Posted July 20, 2010 Thanks for your reply. I jjust downloaded the new version and looked at upgrade.htm Do I need to make the changes in the files myself or how do I upgrade?
Guest Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Jan, Yes, there are file edits to be done to complete the upgrade to RC2a Chris
mammuten Posted July 20, 2010 Author Posted July 20, 2010 Thanks! Ok, so I cant just upload the changed files and everything will be fine?
Guest Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Jan, Make sure you make a complete backup of your files and database before doing any changes. Chris
mammuten Posted July 28, 2010 Author Posted July 28, 2010 Isnt threre any more simple way to update? This is crazy! I really have to edit all those files by hand?
Guest Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 Jan, That's why I say, creating a new site is usually less time consuming that trying to update one. Chris
♥FWR Media Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 Firstly - the changes between RC2 and RC2a are tiny so I certainly wouldn't build a new site just to accommodate those changes. Secondly - It won't make a jot of difference to the hack. If someone was able to upload a file to your catalog directory then you should be working with your hosts to find out how and why.
