UPDATE

@@ -0,0 +1,66 @@
+Please follow the steps below to update an existing refbase installation to
+refbase-0.9.7. The update script should also be able to update any refbase
+version that was installed from SVN prior to the release of refbase-0.9.7. To
+update versions of refbase prior to refbase-0.8.0, please update to
+refbase-0.8.0 first.
+
+- First of all, please make sure that you have a recent backup of your refbase
+  MySQL database! This can be accomplished by issuing the following command
+  from your shell:
+
+    mysqldump DATABASE_NAME -uADMINUSER -p --complete-insert --opt > refbase.sql
+
+  In the above line, replace DATABASE_NAME with the database name that you've
+  specified for the variable '$databaseName' (in file
+  'initialize/db.inc.php'). Similarly, replace ADMINUSER with the name of the
+  administrative user that has full access to the refbase MySQL database. As
+  an example, if the variable '$databaseName' is set to "literature" and your
+  administrative user is "root", the above line would read:
+
+    mysqldump literature -uroot -p --complete-insert --opt > refbase.sql
+
+  WARNING: If using MySQL 4.1.x, mysqldump's charset conversion may damage
+           data. If necessary, use the '--default-character-set=latin1' option
+           to avoid the conversion. More info is available at
+           <http://backup.refbase.net>.
+
+- Backup your original configuration files 'initialize/db.inc.php' and
+  'initialize/ini.inc.php'. Optionally, you may want to backup all of your
+  existing refbase scripts.
+
+- Move all refbase-0.9.7 files to your server's web directory.
+
+- Open the file 'initialize/db.inc.php' in a text editor and re-enter the
+  values from your old 'db.inc.php' file for the variables '$databaseName',
+  '$username' and '$password'. Similarly, migrate all custom values that
+  you've entered within the old 'ini.inc.php' file to the new one.
+
+- Now, open a web browser and access the 'update.php' script by typing:
+
+    <http://SERVER_ADDRESS/PATH_ON_SERVER/update.php>
+
+   (where the string 'SERVER_ADDRESS' is replaced by your server name and
+    'PATH_ON_SERVER' is the actual path to your refbase-0.9.5 web directory)
+
+  This should bring up the update form. Edit the contents of all text entry
+  fields to match your server setup and supply the MySQL admin password, then
+  click the 'Update' button to update the database.
+
+  WIN32: Be sure to set a password for the MySQL root user.
+
+  This will add the MySQL tables that were added in 0.9.x and alter existing
+  tables to match the table design used by refbase-0.9.x. A detailed log is
+  generated for all performed update actions. Your data should remain
+  untouched by this operation.
+
+- After you've successfully performed the update, please remove the files
+  'update.php' & 'update.sql' (as well as 'install.php' & 'install.sql') from
+  your web directory.
+
+- Note: The update process modifies some existing formats in table 'formats'
+  and adds additional ones. Please login as admin and make sure that suitable
+  import, export and citation formats are enabled for all of your users within
+  the "Display Options" section of the admin interface.
