I have a little doubt, when I update the server pass through the following steps:

1. for this option I select "s" - (No problem here)

Code: Select all

Trying to make a backup of your loginserver database. LOGINSERVER DATABASE install type: (f)ull: I will destroy data in your `accounts` and   and `gameserver` tables. (s)kip: I'll take you to the communityserver database   installation and upgrade options. (r)econfigure: You'll be able to redefine MySQL path,   user and database information and start over with   those fresh values. (q)uit  Choose (default skip) :

2. for this option i select "u" - (No problem here)

Code: Select all

Trying to make a backup of your cbserver database. COMMUNITYSERVER DATABASE install type: (f)ull: WARNING! I'll destroy ALL of your existing community   data (i really mean it: mail, forum, memo.. ALL) (u)pgrade: I'll do my best to preserve all of your community   data. (s)kip: I'll take you to the gameserver database   installation and upgrade options. (r)econfigure: You'll be able to redefine MySQL path,   user and database information and start over with   those fresh values. (q)uit  Choose (default skip) :

3. for this option i select "u" - (No problem here)

Code: Select all

GAMESERVER DATABASE install: (f)ull: WARNING! I'll destroy ALL of your existing character   data (i really mean it: items, pets.. ALL) (u)pgrade: I'll do my best to preserve all of your character   data. (s)kip: We'll get into the last set of questions (cummulative   updates, custom stuff...) (q)uit  Choose (default upgrade):

4. and finally here is my doubt:
I need to apply these patches if I use upgrade in the previous step

Code: Select all

Usually these SQL files are created whenever some newfeature implementation requires it. If you're too lame to know what these changes are about,i can try to apply these patches for you. What we do with the files in sql/updates folder? (a)utomagic processing: I'll get into the folders and   try to dump _every_ '.sql' file i find there, into   your database. A fresh setup wouldn't usually need   such a thing. And, as any automagic task, this may   pose a risk on your data. automagi(c) processing: I'll do the automagic process   only with the cb_sql/updates folder. automa(g)ic processing: I'll do the automagic process   only with the sql/updates folder. (s)kip: I'll do nothing, it's up to you to find out   which file does what, which one could be of use for   you, etc.  Choose (default auto):
