Vista
SQL Server 2008
mojoPortal v2.3.5.5
I have just installed mojoPortal 2.3.5.5 on my local Vista machine through the Web Platform Installer to test mojoPortal. Everything is working very nicely and the install was easy. Now I want to upgrade to 2.3.5.8. Is it possible to use the Web Platform Installer to upgrade mojoPortal? What I mean is, if I get mojoPortal through the Web Platform Installer again will it know to upgrade and not do a new install?
Excuse the double post, mistakenly aslo posted under Installing via WPI.
Vista, SQL Server 2008, mojoPortal 2.3.5.5
Thanks Jamie and Joe for your reply under thread "Installing via WPI". Unfortunately, I didn't wait long enough for Joe's reply and did try to upgrade mojoPortal via WPI. Per Jamie's yes answer to the question if I could upgrade from 2.3.5.5. to 2.3.5.8 via WPI. Well, the installer tried to upgrade and I didn't get any errors but now I don't have the site UI (Skin) that I selected in Administration. When I go to administration to reselect the skin I get an error that "url is null or not an object". I am going to try the manual upgrade per Joe's reply and hope that will correct everything. My question is: Do you think I hosed up the site trying to use the WPI to upgrade? This is all still test on my local computer so I would not be devastated if I had to delete the site and db and start over. I really like mojoPortal and you guys are great at replying to questions. I am a long time .NET developer and just need to learn the details of mojoPortal before I start deploying live sites. Thank You.
I apologize for my faulty reply, Wendell. I hope that Joe can help you out with this one. I'm going to redact my reply in the original thread.
No worries Jamie, I appreciate the help and quick responses in this forum. It's all part of the learning. Thanks.
