XF 2.1 1.5 to 2.1 Upgrade (doubts?)

[rosal]

Hi, iam going to upgrade from the last 1.5 to last 2.1, iam doing this in environment test but i have 2 questions.

What i have to choose the "upgrade package only" or the full version?
The old files from 1.5 they will be deleted automatically?

Best Regards

The upgrade package - the full package is for brand new installations only.

No, they will need to be manually deleted, or you can use the clean up script posted in the resources.

I don't really understand the question.

If you want to test the upgrade, create a copy of your live site and do it there.

Then once you are comfortable with the process, do it on the live site.

Im doing that this question is about the old files(1.5).

I can delete all files and folders and send new one from 2.1 package and change /src/config.php with the data to bd?

Just follow the standard upgrade procedure.

The XF1 clean up is done once it is complete.
