popres 0 Posted February 21, 2013 I have backup files from an Prestashop 1.2.5 installation and want to put the shop online again. I am a little bit confused, what is the best way to go ? I have saved some files as .tar, .zip and .sql Can I just install PS 1.5 and then update the database ? I might have forgotten the password for the database.

tomerg3 612 Posted February 21, 2013 You have to load the 1.2.5 site, copy over it the new PS 1.5 and start the installation, it will run an upgrade of the DB for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should I install PS 1.2.5 and then import the backed up database ? Or better to use the .tar file ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
