Does the Alpha upgrade vis Admin CP

  • I notice in Admin CP you can check for updates and says I'm running latest version.

    Does running the Alpha auto update to new releases?

  • Quote from TimWolla
    it does not.

    Maybe it would, if there were any releases, but we didn't reach the Beta-state yet so there are no official "releases".

    In a nutshell: While we're alpha, there is no automatic renewal of the code because that would be unnecessary and much work.

  • On this site were it says "Last Modified" for the download branch_next.zip. It shows todays date and time, does that mean the time changes was last made to the download? So the package has been updated since yesterday and is now different with more fixes, etc

    As it says it gets updated every two hours and notice the other two downloads above it have not changed with date and time

    That's the time when the current download has been packed to a usable archive. The code get's updated like every few hours or even every few minutes at the moment as you can see there: https://github.com/WoltLab/WCF/commits/next


    The other two downloads are from the stable branch which is not that active at the moment, so they won't get renewd within the same short interval than the next-branch.

  • GTB if you want to have a script which updates (some) of the changes let me know.

    I automatically upgrade via cronjob and a script @Morik gave me.

  • How long do you estimate it might be before a Beta is used here?

    I know you can't say exactly. But do you think it's going to be longer than another 7 days from now.

  • mit einem cronjob bei allink starte ich die Upgrade.php:

  • Hmm, that's right. ^^

    Btw: The script updates files only. I'm currenty working on a script that updates the database-things as well (SQL-Commands excluded).
