Update a 3WDOC Studio on a registered domain (if you registered before 30-06-2011)

For those you have registered and install the 3WDOC Studio on their own domain before 30-06-2011, here is a quick procedure to update your 3WDOC Studio on your registered domain.

If you still want to register a domain, please read our previous tutorial.

1. How do I register my own domain?

In this tutorial, we will see how to update the 3WDOC Studio installed on a registered domain. For instance we used the one of our blog at http://social.hecube.net

1. Download the new package

You will have to download the new package containing the full 3WDOC Studio

1. If you are logged, go to http://account.3wdoc.com/account/registeredlist
2. Download the new package for the domain with the status ACTIVATED

2. Rename the previous package and upload the new package

2.1 Rename

In our example, we will swap from OLD installation to a NEW installation with the following settings. For educational purpose, we have renamed the directory with OLD and NEW in capital letters. Feel free to use any of your renaming convention.

The OLD 3WDOC Studio (OLD PACKAGE)

• The files on the server will be at this path: /blog.hecube.net/OLD_my_studio
• The OLD 3WDOC Studio will be available at: http://social.hecube.net/OLD_my_studio/
• You can login to the OLD 3WDOC Studio with the same credentials: http://social.hecube.net/OLD_my_studio/he3Login.php

The NEW 3WDOC Studio (NEW PACKAGE)

• The files on the server will be at this path: /blog.hecube.net/NEW_my_studio
• The NEW 3WDOC Studio will be available at: http://social.hecube.net/NEW_my_studio/
• You can login to the NEW 3WDOC Studio with the same credentials: http://social.hecube.net/NEW_my_studio/he3Login.php

2.2 Change the _HE3WS_LOC_BASE_DOCROOT into he3Configuration.php for OLD and NEW ones
As you have renamed directories, you need to impact both configuration files to let 3WDOC knows where the files are !

// define("_HE3WS_LOC_BASE_DOCROOT",				"");
define("_HE3WS_LOC_BASE_DOCROOT",				"OLD_my_studio");

// define("_HE3WS_LOC_BASE_DOCROOT",				"");
define("_HE3WS_LOC_BASE_DOCROOT",				"NEW_my_studio");

2.3 Keep the crossdomain.xml at the root of your server

You do not have to change the crossdomain.xml that is already at the root of your server. The crossdomain.xml should look like the one below.

	<?xml version="1.0"?>
	<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy 
	  SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
	<cross-domain-policy>
	        <allow-access-from domain="account.3wdoc.com" />
	</cross-domain-policy>

3. Retrieve your datas

One rule: always do the procedure from the OLD PACKAGE to the NEW PACKAGE. So, from the OLD PACKAGE, we are going to dowlaod on our computer the following directories and subdirectories and send them to the NEW PACKAGE folder.

1. webdocuments
2. sequences
3. medias
4. multimedia*
5. skins** except the subdirectory 0

*For the multimedia directory, it may be more relevant to move the directory than to upload it again, especially if you have big files inside this directory.

** For skins, you need to keep the subdirectory 0 from the NEW PACKAGE. DO NOT UPLOAD OR USE THE SUBDIRECTORY 0 FROM YOUR OLD PACKAGE.

If you are an expert, you can move directly directories and subdirectories via your favorite FTP client.

4. Go to the 3WDOC Studio
