  path_to_php_binary -q upgrade.60_61.php
  

  (for Linux)

or

path_to_php_exe upgrade.60_61.php

(for Windows)

• The script will show you notifications about its successful or unsuccessful runtime. You need to inform the Support Department about all the unsuccessful notifications.

• Run the following script in your browser:

  http://dolphin_url/upgrade.60_61.web.php
  

The script will show you notifications about its successful or unsuccessful runtime. You need to inform the Support Department about all the unsuccessful notifications.

• Now reverse the permissions of the following folders and files:

755 for the folders

inc periodic

644 for the files

periodic/cmd.php periodic/notifies.php periodic/cupid.php ray/modules/global/inc/header.inc.php

Note: You may also need to set 777 permissions for the ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe file.

Step 4: Delete the crons installed during your previous installations and replace them with those specified ​here

Step 5: Finally, you need to ​recompile Orca language file and register Dolphin, Orca and Ray widgets with the same licenses you used to have on Combo 6.0.0003|4|5 versions.

Step 6: Those of you who are using own RMS servers should re-install them. The latest versions are available ​here (Linux and Windows versions). Installation instructions are available ​here

You need to specify your RMS requisites in Admin Panel -> Plugins -> Ray Suite -> Base Settings (RMS Address, RMS Port and RMS HTTP Port) according to your RMS installation. Don't miss the Use RMS checkbox! It should be ticked if you're using RMS at all.

Now your Dolphin version should be successfully upgraded.
