For those having started a Chamihost hosting before the 1.9.6, you can easily upgrade your version using the following script, uploading it to your Chamilo directory (through FTP) and loading it from your browser.
<html> <body> Downloading upgrade <?php ini_set('display_errors',true); ini_set('error_reporting',6143); $d = __DIR__.'/'; $f = @fopen('http://zap.beeznest.com/temp/chamilo-1.9.6-upg.tar.gz','r'); if ($f === false) { die($php_errormsg); } $l = @fopen($d.'archive/chamilo.tar.gz','w'); if ($l === false) { die($php_errormsg); } while ($line = fread($f,16384)) { echo ". "; fwrite($l,$line); flush(); } fclose($f); fclose($l); ?> <br /> Finished downloading!<br /> Extracting archive... <?php $bdir = getcwd(); chdir($d); $e = @exec('tar zxf chamilo.tar.gz'); if ($e === false) { @unlink('chamilo.tar.gz'); die('Could not uncompress file: '.$php_errormsg); } chdir($bdir); echo "Uncompressed successfully<br />"; flush(); echo "Overwriting current installation..."; $c = @exec('cp -r '.$d.'archive/chamilo-1.9.6-upg/* .'); if ($e === false) { die('Error copying files: '.$php_errormsg); } ?> <br /> Finished upgrading! Please change the version number at the end of main/inc/conf/configuration.php and delete this script (it could be dangerous in the future)! </body> </html>That should be enough :-)
