Update GLPI

Hi,

Current GLPI status:

Version: GLPI 0.72.4
OS: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition R2.

Now i want to update GLPI to the new version, only i am already stuck in the beginning. First the update manual on the site says: Backup your database through the use of backup interface.

Where do i find this?

Re: Update GLPI

Have you explored each menu item?  Perhaps you should.  Just basic familiarity would not only solve this problem but many other potential ones as well.

Ofcourse i looked into the different menus, but i cant find it. Iam a Superadmin so that should not be the issue

A good backup will take the files folder from the server's file system and back that up.  Then, you'll go into the Administration > Maintenance and run an SQL backup.  The zipped files from the files folder along with the SQL backup comprise a complete backup.

Re: Update GLPI

Thanks for your posts. But when i go the the Administration tab, i don't see Maintenance coming forward.
Like i said before i have Super-Admin right so that should not be an issue.
