Magento

Ok. I have 1.2.1 version instaled yet and i want to upgade to 1.3. Some of you write to use to it MagentoConnect Manager. How to upgrade my script using this tool? I have to download 1.3 and overwrite 1.2.1 version files completely on the server?

Is there other way to upgrade Magento (except new fresh install)?

You have to log in using the link in your admin..
system > magento connect > magento connect manager.
then log in using the same username and password as with the admin login.
then

And all the following files will not be added:

Not to mention the files that needed to be merged… I was working on 1.2.1.2… and when 1.3.0.0 came up I upgraded through connect… only to find out yesterday that over 100 files need to be added or merged from a full 1.3.0.0 tar archive…

I would mark “magento connect manager” as broken for UPDATES… at least… from my point of view it’s unusable…

From now on I’ll use the tar archive… and Meld diff viewer to reconcile by hand the differences…

I haven’t seen this issue.  Are you sure you’re starting your upgrades with the Mage_All_Latest package?

thanks for your help. Unfortuanately as Radical i’ve marked “magento connect manager” as broken for UPDATES. It’s too risky to using it. One tested magento script generates error and second one (on the diferent server) just stopped in the middle of process. I’ll do it manualy thank you for your help guys:)
