upgrading forum help... · **Released**: 06-09-2003

ok, this forum i wanna update has alot of errors on it somewhere and i cant find the problems....

if i install a fresh copy of the forum, what items in the DB should i save to bring over to the new forum?

normally it should be enough to just overwrite the files, there is normally no need to redo the whol DB structure, too

erm sorry, but it's impossible to loose nothing and do a fresh install.
you can either loose something or don't do a fresh install.
