In Visual Studio I ran Update-Package UmbracoCms against my UAT setup.
Now I want to update my live environment, what is the correct procedure for that? Obviously my code is update to date in Visual Studio so I can just deploy that but how does it know to update the database?
If I go into web.config and set this...
to...
will it wipe the database i.e. reset it?
Also, is there any way to look in the database tables to know what version it is at?
it'll know to update the system because it'll check the version from the web.config with the newly deployed assemblies and start the upgrade if required.
umbracoMigration table should have entries where name is "Umbraco", that'll also tell you what migrations have run (and what umbraco upgrades you've already performed)
Updating another database
I have a UAT setup and a live setup.
In Visual Studio I ran Update-Package UmbracoCms against my UAT setup.

Thanks for any help anyone can be.
don't change the web.config manually
it'll know to update the system because it'll check the version from the web.config with the newly deployed assemblies and start the upgrade if required.

Hope this helps,
