Moving shop to a new domain, need 1.5.6.0


Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I need to move my shop to a new domain, and I am currenty still on version 1.5.6.0 - I am a bit "upgrade shy" after a previous upgrade went horribly wrong and I was not able to restore from backups, despite having backed up the DB and the file structure.  This also seems like a good opportunity to upgrade.  I am planning to do the following:

 

While my old domain is still running:

 

1. Install bare Prestashop on new domain

2. Restore DB and files and test

3. Do an upgrade

 

This way my existing shop won't be affected if something goes wrong.  If everything works as planned, I can cleanly switch over to the new domain on the current version.

 

I cannot find version 1.5.6.0 online anymore and I doubt I have kept it on my local PC.  The closest version I have been able to download is 1.5.6.2.  I  am hoping there were no DB structure changes in between those versions.  Can I install 1.5.6.2 and try to restore the DB and files from 1.5.6.0 to 1.5.6.2, or were the changes significant enough that it would not work?  More ideally, does anyone know where I can still get version 1.5.6.0 to do it the right way?

 

Regards

Hardie
