queXS 1.7.2 Released

queXS 1.7.2 has been released today on Sourceforge

Some bugs have been fixed including when running on IIS/MySQL. You can view the number of available cases at any time by looking in the questionnaire outcome administration page. A full Czech translation has been included (thank you Zbyněk Schwarz!).

Read on for more details including how to upgrade from queXS 1.7.0 or 1.7.1

Upgrading from queXS 1.7.0 or queXS 1.7.1

  1. Browse to the queXS administration page
  2. Click on "Start and monitor system wide case sorting"
  3. Confirm that the sorting process is stopped
  4. Click on "Start and monitor VoIP"
  5. Confirm that the VoIP process is stopped
  6. IMPORTANT: Backup your database and files
  7. Rename the queXS 1.7.x directory
  8. Extract quexs-1.7.2 to a new directory on your web server
  9. Rename the new directory to the same as the existing installation was originally
  10. Copy the config.inc.local.php file from the queXS 1.7.x installation to this directory
  11. If you used .htaccess files, copy these to their respective directories also, for example: .htaccess admin/.htaccess client/.htaccess
  12. Inspect your include/limesurvey/admin/.htaccess file and compare it to include/limesurvey/admin/.htaccess.example - you may need to use the new lines in the example file to override the previous directories permissions
  13. Also note that for queXS 1.7.x if you use .htaccess files and want to use the new respondent self completion feature, you will need to inspect the .htaccess.example file in the include/limesurvey directory. If you are happy with it, copy it to .htaccess . This will allow any user to access the include/limesurvey directory. Make sure there is security in the include/limesurvey/admin directory
