Note
Windows source is not covered in this document. Linux source and Windows XAMPPlite are detailed below. It is assumed if you can install Open-AudIT onto Windows not using the supplied and pre-configured XAMPPlite download, you will be able to follow the Windows XAMPPlite instructions as provided here and adapt them as necessary.
Backup your database
Linux - mysqldump -u root -pPASSWORD DATABASE_NAME > BACKUP_FILE_NAME.sql
Windows - c:\xampplite\mysql\bin\mysqldump -u root -pPASSWORD DATABASE_NAME > BACKUP_FILE_NAME.sql
NOTE -
- DATABASENAME is usually openaudit.
- PASSWORD is usually openauditrootuserpassword.
- BACKUP_FILE_NAME is usually the date and database name thus - 2013-06-20_openaudit.sql
You may wish to store the database backup on another disk. Do this by pre-pending the file path to the BACKUP_FILE_NAME.sql file. IE for Windows, d:\backups\BACKUP_FILE_NAME.sql
Backup your files
Linux - mv /usr/local/open-audit /usr/local/open-audit.bak
Windows - Use Windows Explorer to rename c:\xampplite\open-audit to c:\xampplite\open-audit.bak

Edit c:\xampplite\htdocs\index.php in a text editor and set the correct paths for $system_path and $application_folder.
$system_path = 'c:/xampplite/open-audit/code_igniter/system';
$application_folder = 'c:/xampplite/open-audit/code_igniter/application';
Create a new text file called c:\xampplite\open-audit\open-audit\other\open-audit.log
Edit the file c:\xampplite\open-audit\open-audit\code_igniter\application\config\database.php and insert the correct database credentials and name (these should be the same as your backed-up file at c:\xampplite\open-audit.bak\code_igniter\application\config\database.php).
Restore any modifications you made to c:\xampplite\open-audit\code_igniter\application\config\config.php
Restore any custom files
If you have any custom files, copy them to the new location from your backup.
Upgrade your database
Log on to the web interface as admin and go to Help -> About. Upgrade the database.
Update your audit scripts
New audit script are included in this release. You can find them at open-audit/other. Make sure to update and GPO/login/other scripts you have configured with these new scripts.
Testing
Some Reports have been redefined along with the report display pages. You may wish to check by running varied Reports against various Groups. If a Report does not show as intended, you should first backup the report by going to Admin -> Reports -> List Reports and clicking the export report icon. Save the XML file. Next, delete the report (click on the delete report icon). Then go to Admin -> Reports -> Activate Report and activate the Report in question. NOTE - The name may have changed slightly. Test the newly activated Report works as intended. If it does not, don't hesitate to post a bug report to the forms at http://www.open-audit.org.
