Upgrade to v2
This guide is only for users upgrading from v1 to v2 - if this is your first time installing lation_chopshop or you are already on v2, this guide is not for you.
Enter maintenance mode (optional)
Placing your server into maintenance mode is recommended, but not required. This is done just to ensure no players are performing any activities that may involve database interactions and cause any delays, conflicts, etc.
To enter maintenance mode, navigate to txAdmin -> Settings -> Whitelist and select the option found below:
Install the new lation_chopshop update
- Remove (and backup) your current
lation_chopshopresource from your server - Download the latest update from your Cfx.re Portal/Keymaster account
- Extract the resource into your server as normal/update as usual
- Once successfully installed, restart your server while still in maintenance mode.
You must do a full server restart after installing before proceeding below.
Do not make any changes to the resource just yet, including the config file(s).
Execute the migration command
Once your server has fully restarted, you can now execute the migrateChopshopData command.
This command must be typed directly into your live server console on txAdmin, like below:
If you see the message above; great job! Your player(s) data has been converted successfully to v2.
Complete the upgrade process
After executing the above command, we can now clean up and complete this process.
As stated in the console message, you can now remove the original lation_chopshop database table or you may retain it for record purposes - up to you!
It is highly recommended after completing these steps that you do remove the command from lation_chopshop/server/functions.lua file found on line(s) 153-214.
Lastly, you can now safely exit maintenance mode (if applicable), restart your server & you are done!
