Topic: PHP: How do you fix that update-thing?

Hello!
I have seen that you, Kennel, have made a update-script for your forum.
Instead of installing the whole system again, I just need to run a (few?) files (it was actually a while I updated last).

How have you done that?

Thanks!

Do you mean tha patch files? There are instructions in the directory where the patch files can be found (here).

I create them using a program called diff. I run it like this:

diff -urbB punbb-1.1.3/upload/ punbb-1.1.4/upload/ > site/download/patch/punbb-1.1.3_to_1.1.4.patch
