Upgrades are evolutions in which the database structure has changed (and other files also). So you need to replace the files and folders as for updates. You also need to run the “upgrade.php” file through the internet browser. On this page you will select the upgrade level you are doing and it will automatically execute the changes in the database structure.


Upgrades are identified when LabCollector’s version goes from X.nx to X.zx, for example from 4.6x to 4.7x. 


On the server computer, access the following address from the browser:

http://127.0.0.1/upgrade.php


Warning

Do not modify the “documents”, “backup” and “maps” folders. Also, take care not to alter, delete or destroy “config.php” file.
