Upgrade Instructions from 6.0.0003 to 6.0.0004
(per boonex)

Step 0: Back up your Database and Files.

Step 1: Download Dolphin 6 Patch 0004 Free Version or Ad Free version.

Download Dolphin 6.0.0003 to 6.0.0004 Diff to see file changes.

Step 2: Upload all files accordingly to their location in the script and in the patch file by file overwriting them.

Example: Open /inc/ directory of your site, also open /inc/ directory of the patch that you have downloaded to your PC. Upload all files contained in the /inc/ directory of the patch on PC to your site's /inc/ directory overwriting those already there.

NOTE: Do not upload the folders from the patch overwriting the ones existing on your site.

Step 3: You have to edit the build number of your script in inc/header.inc.php, replacing

$site['build'] = '0003';

with

$site['build'] = '0004';

Step 4: You have to edit the path to your script's inc/header.inc.php inside ray/modules/global/inc/header.inc.php, replacing [path_to]inc/header.inc.php with the absolute path to it. Also you have to do the same action for periodic/notifies.php file.

Step 5: Upgrading your database. Upload the two files from the upgrade patch called upgrade.php and upgrade.sql in your Dolphin's home directory. Run the following script in you favorite browser to upgrade your database http://www.mysite.com/path_to_dolphin/upgrade.php.

NOTE: You should run your upgrade.php only once. If you run the script for a second time, it will result in Database access error.

Step 6: Set the following permissions:

Code:

chmod -v 666 ./ray/modules/global/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/global/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/skins.xml

Code:

chmod -v 777 ./ray/modules/board/files/ ./ray/modules/im/files/ ./ray/modules/mp3/files/ ./ray/modules/movie/files ./ray/modules/music/files

Step 7: Please log into your Admin Panel -> Settings -> Advanced Settings and click "Save" button to recompile params.inc.php file. Also you have to enter new licences for all Ray widgets by following Admin Panel -> Plugins -> Ray Suite.

Your Dolphin installation has been successfully upgraded.

Note: Don't forget to delete all content from orca/cachejs and groups/orca/cachejs folders.

The files they mention have

Code:

[path_to]inc/header.inc.php

you need to put in the proper [path_to]

An example would be

Code:

/home/mysite/public_html/inc/header.inc.php
