Updating DAlbum installation to the most recent version










    DAlbum was specially designed to be easily updatable to newer versions. When only
    configuration files are customized and the other installation files
    are not modified, upgrading DAlbum is very fast and easy.




    Upgrade can be done either automatically or manually.




    Manual upgrade




    To upgrade your installation manually, download a special update only
    distribution which does not contain any configuration files and
    extract it into DAlbum folder. That's all.




    Automatic upgrade




    If you have DAlbum 1.20 or later installed, you can upgrade DAlbum automatically:



    
    
  1. 
        Download and extract DAlbum update utility
        (Win32, 110Kb) to your harddrive.
    
        Do not run the utility directly out of the updalbum.zip file!
    
    2. 
    
  2. 
        Run the utility, press Add button and add your DAlbum FTP site to the list.
    
    3. 
    
  3. 
        Select sites to be updated and press Update button. You can select more than one site at
        once.
    
    4. 
    
  4. 
        Press 'Update' button. Update utility will automatically connect to www.delx.ca/dalbum and download the latest DAlbum build. If
        your site is running an older version it will be updated automatically. Your configuration
        files will remain untouched.
    
    5. 


    
Note: The update utility provided does NOT send ANY personal information
        to delx.ca site. Only version.txt and dalbum.cab are downloaded using HTTP
        protocol. If still in doubt, download the source code here
        (it's quick&dirty, mind you :) ).




    Upgrade notes




    Upgrading to 1.30-1.31 to 1.32




    In 1.32 configuration files are moved to a separate folder
    ./config. DAlbum still will be able to locate your configuration in ./include
    directory, but it is recommended to move them into ./config manually.




    If you would like to use "fit-to-window" image resizing on your site, please update your
    t_showimg.php file from the 1.32 distribution or from
       here. This updated template contains several important fixes.




    Upgrading 1.06-1.22 to 1.3




    When manually upgrading to version 1.3, you will need to create two new template files:
    include/t_index.php and include/t_showimg.php. You can download just these two
    templates from here.




    Upgrading 1.01-1.06




    Upgrade is not supported for DAlbum 1.06 and earlier - too many changes and new files
    have been added since. Do complete reinstall in this case.
