    Default

    In all version of OSC (like MS2 and MS2-MAX) there is a perl utlity: \extras\mysql_diff\mysqldiff.pl

    Utility to compare table definitions in two MySQL databases,
    and output a patch in the format of ALTER TABLE statements
    which converts the first database structure into in the second.
    (takes MySQL database files or database name-direct)

    Thus

    Load your new version of OSC (like MS2 or MS2-MAX) database in to a new database and take your curent database version (or export your current one to a file) then use this perl script on both databases.

    Good Luck

    See - Project Progress on the left..... Find the link on the OSCDOX main page titled "AABox MS2-MAX v1.5 Released"

    It has many of the popular MOD already installed like:

    Basic Template Structure 1.0a Author: Brenden Vickery
    Credit/Gift Voucher/Coupons 5.05 Author: Ian Wilson
    Admin With Access Levels 2.1 Author: Zaenal Muttaqin
    Download Controller v5.3 Author : Linda McGrath
    And much more...


    Setup and run a DEMO/TEST site for awhile. Import the default database. Use the perl script to make an ALTER table..... In phpMySQL create a copy of your live data - run the ALTER table on the copy and then try it on your DEMO/TEST site.
