Upgrade

  1. Move current 6.0 openemr web server directory to a backup directory openemr_bk
  2. Unpackage OpenEMR 6.1.0 into web server directory and rename the directory to openemr
  3. Copy the old OpenEMR 6.0 documents directory (openemr_bk/sites/default/documents) to the new OpenEMR 6.1 at openemr/sites/default/documents
  4. Copy the old OpenEMR 6.0 database connection config file (openemr_bk/sites/default/sqlconf.php) to the new OpenEMR 6.1 at openemr/sites/default/
  5. 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;)
  6. Open openemr/sql_upgrade.php (http://localhost/openemr/sql_upgrade.php) in web browser, choose 6.0.0 and click 'Upgrade Database'. If you're using multi-sites, see OpenEMR Multiple Sites Module.
  7. Configure optional settings in openemr/sites/default/config.php files
