[Xerte] Re: XOT Version

[Kent]

Ron,


You also nailed it on the import failures.  I thought I had increased the upload_max_filesize, but I apparently did it on something besides the system I am currently using.  Bumped the value up and the import worked fine.


Thanks so much for your help.


Have a great day,

Kent

Hi
You don’t need really need to browse the file system for version.txt just add /version.txt to the end of your installation URL in the web browser.

Projects exported from 3.1 should import fine into 3.5. That said if you are trying to export/import site/bootstrap projects I do recall there was a small bug at one point which I think may have been an early revision of 3.1 where bootstrap projects were missing a required identifier. However if it’s xot exports rather than bootstrap exports that you are trying then that’s unlikely to be the reason your imports are failing. Most of the time export/import failures are due to server file size upload limits. Try a simple one page project export as a test.

There is a guide to upgrading in the documentation folder.

Ron & John,


Thanks! I didn't even think to look for a file... just kept looking around on the website.


Well, this explains why I've had trouble importing my projects to a new XOT 3.5 site... my site (I exported from) is still on 3.1.


Any advice on upgrading my site to 3.5?  Anything I should be concerned about?


Have a great day,

Kent

What I usually do is check the file

version.txt

This file can be found in the root of the installation folder of xerte on the web server.

So if Xerte was installed in /var/www/xot you can find it there.


I'm not sure whether this is the appropriate way to do it or whether it is the most convenient one. It is good enough for me.


Best regards,

How can I identify the version of XOT running on a server?


Thanks for any help you can provide.


Have a great day,

Kent
