[SOLVED] Migration from 1.9.6 to 1.9.7

[VegaMan]

I want to migrate from version 1.9.6 to 1.9.7. There were no alter tables in the install directory, so i thought that no changes in database are required. But when I start Testlink in the Browser, he shows the new version 1.9.7 but informs me that a change of database (manually) is required. Are there some Update-Scripst for MySql? I have also looked in the database version Table and the latest version is 1.9.6 so I Think, i have done all table updates in the past. Does anybody have the same probleme and can help me?

Just done following test
1. get 1.9.6 from sourceforge
2. get 1.9.7 from sourceforge
3. unpack 1.9.6 and run installer
4. login and create 1 test project
5. unpack 1.9.7 on a new different folder
6. copy config_db* file created by 1.9.6 installation on 1.9.7 installation folder
7. try to login to 1.9.7 => get no message regarding DB UPGRADE.
But anyway you have to follow instructions as described in 1.9.7 README

Please also give a look to 1.9.7 latest fixes, after you have installed it without issues, because there are some records to add on rights table.(details on mantis)

hi, do you have any news ?

Thanks for your help!
It seemed a problem with my config_db* file. After I copied the file again from my backup directory, it works fine.
I don't know what was wrong with the first copy of the file.

It works.....
