Upgrading PHP Point Of Sale

When upgrading always make sure you do a backup

  1. Logout of the POS system and REMOVE old php pos folder completely and then upload all code from your point of sale installation with the code downloaded for new release.

  2. Modify PHP POS database configuration file
    Browse to "application/config" and look for a file called "database.php.tmpl". Rename this file "database.php" and then open it so you can edit it using your database info.

  3. Verify application/config/database.php driver is set to mysqli (notice the i at the end)
  4. point your browser to http://yourserver.com/PATH/TO/PHPPOS/

  5. The system will automatically detect it needs to be upgraded. Follow the steps on the screen. NOTE it could take awhile to do upgrade; please do NOT refresh or navigate away from page
