upgrading from 2.0.3 to 2.1.2 - El Forum - 09-07-2012
[eluser]dwlamb[/eluser]
I made a mistake earlier citing exactly what version I am upgrading from. It is 2.0.3 to 2.1.2. From the guides for upgrading, the steps are:
replacing the system folder (I had no customisations to begin with);
replacing application/config/user_agents.php;
replacing application/config/mimes.php
There is the step of updating ip_address columns to 45 characters for tables like ci_sessions but for my project tracking of IP addresses in a table is not employed.
Carrying out these upgrades breaks My site. All I get is a white browser window.
New to CI, I am not sure how to proceed, other than roll back to my previous installation.
Old Message:
I am attempting to upgrade CI from 2.1.0 to 2.1.2 and can not find a copy of version 2.1.1. Is it imperative that I upgrade incrementally?

It's not a game breaker, so long as you watch for the changes and how they effect your existing code.
This is an note about that upgrade and it contains a link to the upgrade guide (at the bottom)

No, you do not have to upgrade incrementally. Just make sure you go through both version change logs and "how to upgrade" pages to look for any changes that might affect your application. There should be little to none that would force you to change your code - most are security and bug fixes.
