How to tell what Snapshot version I have?

[gwmbox]

Hi

 

I have an older snapshot - back to mid 2002 I think, anyway how do I tell what snapshot version I have as each of the php files have different dates depending on when they were last updated.

 

Basically I want to move to the MS2 and I know there has been DB changes etc and many other changes and I want to move as much data from the existing shop to the new MS2 version but want to make sure I do this correctly, even if I have to export the table data and enter them manually.

 

Once I know what snapshot I have I'll then ask for help as to the best way to move to MS2.

 

Many Thanks

about 20 lines from the top of /includes/application_top.php you will find a line similar to this:

 

// define the project version

define('PROJECT_VERSION', 'osCommerce 2.2-MS2');

Thanks but that only tells me its a CVS

 

PROJECT_VERSION', 'osCommerce 2.2-CVS

 

Is there anyway to tell the date or the snapshot?

 

The application_top.php file has this at the top

 

$Id: application_top.php,v 1.247 2002/08/13 18:49:07 dgw_ Exp $

 

Is that the date of the snapshot?

 

If so how can I find out the best way to transfer the data (even manually) from that version to the MS2 version?

you can upgrade your database..

 

MAKE A BACKUP FIRST.

 

You must use the upgrade script included in the /extras directory in the new MS2 version to upgrade your database..

 

I made a successful upgrade to 2.2MS2 from 2.2-CVS

Ok - I will give it a try (after I backup :) )

 

Thanks
