############################# Upgrading from 1.7.1 to 1.7.2 ############################# Before performing an update you should take your site offline by replacing the index.php file with a static one. Step 1: Update your CodeIgniter files ===================================== Replace these files and directories in your "system" folder with the new versions: - system/codeigniter - system/database - system/helpers - system/language - system/libraries - index.php .. note:: If you have any custom developed files in these folders please make copies of them first. Step 2: Remove header() from 404 error template =============================================== If you are using header() in your 404 error template, such as the case with the default error_404.php template shown below, remove that line of code. :: 404 status headers are now properly handled in the show_404() method itself. Step 3: Confirm your system_path ================================= In your updated index.php file, confirm that the $system_path variable is set to your application's system folder. Step 4: Update your user guide ============================== Please replace your local copy of the user guide with the new version, including the image files.
