First upgrade impessions v0.4.6
13 September 2007 17:29
Anonymous First of all - THANK YOU DRAKE TEAM for this CMS!!

... and here my experiences:
The upgrade process fron v0.4.5 was very smooth without any errors an all the website content showed as expected. But while walking through the admin area looking for all the new features, i stumbled accross some issues.

1) It is no longer possible to delete menus under 'Menu -> Add/Edit Menus'.

2) After restoring my database backup there was no more 'mod_wrapper' item under 'Modules -> Manage module instances -> New'. Before the database backup the 'mod_wrapper' item was there.

3) There always occurs an error when restoring a v0.4.6-database backup:
SQL syntax error in command INSERT at offset 668 /,'','',0,0/

Perhaps more to come ...

Ooops..a bug. It will be fixed in RC2

This is another bug...you will have back the feature in RC2, or else you could manually insert the missing reference from System -> Database -> Query:

Code:

INSERT INTO dk_modules (title,message,ordering,position,module,access,showtitle,showon,p arams,iscore)
VALUES ('Wrapper module','',25,'left','mod_wrapper',9,0,'','',1)

Can you please find that line and report us via the bug tracker?

Thank you very much! cheerful

Open your 0.4.5 database backup file and look for the string
Code:
,'','',0,0
(exactly as written by the error message)

Anonymous Ah, thanks - here is the bad line:

Add the zero (bold in above quote) to fix the issue and reimport the fixed SQL backup

Yes!
I read forum every now and then.
I have time after time seen users get help quickly and precise.

This, to me, tells that these Authors of Drake knows their code very well.
In most details.

Anonymous Thank you...

The bulk of the work is being done by a very small team.

With having to earn a living and/or study requirements as well, they have been performing miracles...yay team. cheerful

The Testing regime is also picking up so the general dev pace is quickening.

Everyone who has hung on are going to be very happy with what Drake CMS can deliver.
