Version 8 is a completely new forum engine, so yes you would need to update the path to the forums database Access again, however, this is much simpler in version 8 as you only need to update 1 file called database/database_configuration.asp

As far as the email goes, if you mean do you need to edit the email files to add in SMTP authentication, in version 8 this can now be setup from the online admin area.

If I upload the Version 8.x over my versin 7.9 do I need the change the configuration files as well?
I am not talking about the access data base but the asp pages which I had modifed for data base location, email set up etc...

There is a database upgrade tool available on the download page, which also comes with instructions on how to do the upgrade.]]> Thu, 24 Aug 2006 10:12:54 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/upgrade-instructions_topic21122_post113092.html#113092 <![CDATA[Upgrade instructions? : I just downloaded v 8.03 and am...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/upgrade-instructions_topic21122_post113067.html#113067 Author: bacwebdesign

I just downloaded v 8.03 and am trying to upgrade from 7.9
 
Are there instuctions somewhere that I am missing on how to upgrade? I don't want to replace my database but do I just import all the other files?
