jrnetwork Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 How come this file is named configuration.php.new I had to take the .new off the end after uploading it and chmodding it... why has it been left with the .new extension? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welch Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 It is a safety measure when upgrading to new WHMCS versions. When updating, you do not want to overwright the configuration.php since it contains certain security hashes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willx Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Exactly! Most people when designing stuff they put a config.php.new in order to make sure you save your old info so you have your mysql info there in case you forget 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
