Upgrade

  1. Move current (5.0.2) /openemr directory to a backup directory openemr_bk
  2. Unpackage 6.0.0 openemr into web directory and rename the directory to openemr
  3. Record the openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php file variables from your old 5.0.2 version, and type these into the openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php file in new openemr version
  4. In the openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php file, set the $config variable (found near bottom of file within bunch of slashes) to 1 ($config = 1;).
  5. Open openemr/sql_upgrade.php (http://localhost/openemr/sql_upgrade.php) in web browser, choose 5.0.2 and click 'Upgrade Database'
  6. Configure optional settings in openemr/sites/default/config.php files
