This How-To shows you, how to update a translate5 installation which is set up as shown in the Simple translate5 windows installation How-To.
In general it should also work for translate5 windows installations, that have been set up manually.
Update the file tree and database structure
Create a backup
Although our updates are well tested, we strongly recommend to make a backup of the whole application directory and the translate5 database. For standard windows installations they are located at c:\xampp\htdocs\translate5 and c:\xampp\mysql\data .
Creating a backup is currently not part of this manual or the update script itself!
Update translate5
- Open the folder c:\xampp\htdocs\translate5
- Execute the file install-and-update.bat with normal user rights
The script is looking for file updates on translate5 server. If there is a new version available, the package is downloaded and installed automatically.
Database is also updated automatically.
