Manual upgrade from 4.8.2 to 4.8.4 ? 

Hi all,

I have been developing a portal based on DNN 4.8.2 and almost approaching completion.

Only now then I am asked to upgrade to DNN 4.8.4 due to security issues.

I have given a try on upgrading, but constantly getting errors. The error messages were more often than not, not pointing me to anywhere.

My question is, are there any alternatives to just replacing certain files to fix the security holes, since 4.8.3 and 4.8.4 releases are mainly on security issues, not major framework upgrades.

Thank you!!

upgrading from 4.8.2 to 4.8.4 simply requires to unzip the files into the installation directory, overwriting all existing files. no manual adoption of web.config is required.

Re: Manual upgrade from 4.8.2 to 4.8.4 ? 

Hi,

Thanks for the reply!

I simply copy over the /Install/ and /Bin/ folders from 4.8.4 to my current installation 4.8.2 and it works!

Am not sure if it will break at any points :s can someone please advise on this... upgrade hack?

And also, I think we need to set the following in the web.config:

<add key="AutoUpgrade" value="false" />

Thanks!
