*************************************************
*	1.2.8 ->2.X Upgrade Instructions	*
*************************************************

1) If you have safe_mode enabled you will need to upload the oldfrm_upgrade.php script using the forum's 
   file manager in to the forum's WWW_SERVER_ROOT directory. 
   Otherwise copy the oldfrm_upgrade.php file in to that directory manually.

2) Using your web browser run the oldfrm_upgrade.php script.

3) Once it runs you will need to run the consistency checker, which normally will be automatically 
   started in a new windows via JavaScript.

4) After the consistency checker runs you should be running the new version of FUDforum.

**NOTE**
	For the runtime of the upgrade script 10-20 seconds your forum will be disabled to prevent data corruption.

*********************************
*	CVS Instructions	*
*********************************

1) Checkout the latest release of the forum using the command below:
	cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@asuka.prohost.org:/forum2 checkout fud2_old_upgrade

2) Mark the files for edit by running:
	cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@asuka.prohost.org:/forum2 edit fud2_old_upgrade

3) Enter the fud2_old_upgrade directory, which was created by the CVS and run 
	./create_file_list install 1>> oldfrm_upgrade.php
	This requires your to have a php cgi binary installed, if it is not found inside /usr/local/bin/php
	modify the create_file_list first line with the full path to the php cgi binary.

   by following the upgrade instructions above.
