upgrading ccTiddly & other questions

[kofoid]

1. I am running ccTiddly 1.7.6, and would like to upgrade to 1.8.5. I
inspected the upgrade.php script accompanying 1.8.5, and find that it
is actually the 1.7.6 upgrade script! I cannot find instructions for
upgrading to 1.8.5, only for a fresh installation. Do they exist? Or,
is there a script that will do the job?

2. I have some personal TiddlyWiki notebooks. When I publish them to
the web, they become read-only. Is there any way that I can use
ccTiddly to turn them into fully functional pages?

3. When I delete tiddlers from a ccTiddler page, they return when I
log back on. Is this a feature or a bug, or am I just clueless about
how to do it?

Thanks for your help.

The upgrade script there when upgrading for 1.7.6 because that required changes to the database.   Once you are running the 1.7.6 database you can just copy across all the files to upgrade.

Yes,  Its probably easier to upload the file and then import it using the TiddlyWiki import mechanism.  With ccTiddly logged in users should be able to edit the content  (providing thats how you configure it).

Thats a bug. If it is not already resolved I will make sure it works in the 1.9 release.

Thanks

Hi, Simon,

What exactly do you mean by "copy across all the files" -- do you mean
make changes directly to the mySQL database, or simply replace like-
named files with their new counterparts in the file system?

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,

Eric.

Hi Eric,

Simply replace the old ccTiddly files with the new ones.

Hi, Simon,

When I do this, upon opening my primary CCTW file, I now get the
following:


Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for
user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /Library/WebServer/
Documents/cctiddly/includes/db.mysql.php on line 36
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)


Fortunately, I didn't copy over everything and was able to recover my
old setup. Now, how does one ***really*** upgrade?

Cheers,

Eric.

Eric,

You most likely needed to copy your specific settings, including MySQL
login configurations from older include/config.php, into newer one.

$tiddlyCfg['db']['type'] = "mysql"; //sql type
$tiddlyCfg['db']['host'] = "localhost"; //sql host
$tiddlyCfg['db']['login'] = "Your Login Name"; //login name
$tiddlyCfg['db']['pass'] = "DB Password"; //login password
$tiddlyCfg['db']['name'] = "DB Name"; //db name

(And yes, keeping a copy of everything, till you get the new one up
and running, and tested - is a good practice !)

Cheers,

Y.A.

Hi, Simon,

I followed your suggestions, and was able to do the install. However,
the version installed was 1.8.2 instead of 1.8.5. In addition, the
"done" tab has disappeared from my edit bar, which makes it impossible
for me to change or created tiddlers! Any ideas what might be causing
this?

Cheers,

Eric.

Hi Eric,

The version number showing incorrectly is a bug with 1.8.5.

The done tab should definitely work. If you create a new database, run the install.sql script and then configure the ccTiddly to use the new database does the issue still occur?

Thanks

Simon
