Upgrading on Windows
Backup your database
mysqldump -u root -pPASSWORD DATABASE_NAME > BACKUP_FILE_NAME.sql
Backup your files
We have changed to XAMPPLite for this release (v1.0). This is a required change because the later versions of XAMPP contain a broken SNMP implementation. If you have an XAMPP install in c:\xampp stop your apache and mysql services. If you have an install in c:\xampplite stop your apache and mysql services and rename the directory to c:\xampplite.bak. You should be able to follow the install instructions as provided in install_windows.txt with the exception of the database population. Do NOT execute the final command for database population - "mysql -u root -popenauditrootuserpassword openaudit < c:\xampplite\open-audit\other\openaudit_mysql.sql"
Install
Install as per the installation instruction file in the 'open-audit\other' directory.
Restore database
Run the following and populate a new database with your backup from earlier.
mysql -u root -popenauditrootuserpassword openaudit < BACKUP_FILE_NAME.sql
Restore files
If you have any custom files, copy them to the new location from your backup.
Upgrade your database
Log on to the web interface as admin and go to Help -> About. Upgrade the database.
Finalise
The audit scripts have changed their XML schema. Ensure you update your exiting scheduled tasks, group policy, login scripts, etc with the new scripts.This page is no longer used.
