Updating to new version

Before update, make sure that:

• You've created backup of both of your HostBill files and database.

  • Use your control panel backup option or manual db dump (mysqldump, phpmyadmin or similar).

  • Update procedure do not perform backups on its own.

• Make sure your PHP memory_limit is set to at least 128MB, and your current server load is low.

  • When using Apache your memory can also be limited by its configuration - check httpd.conf for RLimitMEM directive

• Make sure chmod, mkdir, copy are not present in disable_functions in php.ini directive

First, you need to download new HostBill package from HostBillApp Client Area Website.

Then upload it and overwrite the files in your installation directory.

After placing all the files at the correct place, you need to access http://YOUR_HOSTBILL_URL/install/ .

Then proceed with upgrade in HB installation page.

Open

After successfully finished upgrade, please remove /install directory.

You can now replace template files with your customized templates and verify if everything works as it should.

Problem:
I have renamed my HostBill adminarea folder from /admin to /[CUSTOMNAME].
I have performed manual update to the new version.
After upgrade new features/bug fixes are not available in admin panel.

Solution:
1. Please download new version of HostBill package downloaded from HostBill Licenses Portal
2. Please copy contents of /admin/ folder from downloaded package to your /[CUSTOMNAME] admin folder,
3. Make sure it's updated like that with each update you perform.

Admin folder contains template files that need to be overwritten with updates for new features/bug fixes.
