stuartrichardson Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Hi, Sorry, total greenhorn here: My v2 site was hacked several months ago, and I'm just now trying to fix it by installing v3 - my hope is that I can use the same database file from my v2 site, along with the old image folder, and hopefully I'll only need to re-work the graphics on the footer/header. Is this possible, or will I need to completely rebuild the whole site along with creating a new catalog? And if it does require a total rebuild, can I alternatively upgrade using the latest v2 build without having to rebuild graphics, etc. - and would this give me a reasonably secure site again? Thanks so much for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taipo Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I would have thought version 3.x was not a stable release yet? I think 2.3.1 is the stable version. 2.2.1 is the out of date easily hackable version. - Stop Oscommerce hacks dead in their tracks with osC_Sec (see discussion here)- Another discussion about infected files ::here::- A discussion on file permissions ::here::- Site hacked?

Guest Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Stuart, As Te suggested, v3.x is not production ready and was only released to help further development. Us 2.3.1 if you want a production ready store. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
