I received a how do I update Open Web Analytics question on a Reality PC Anet Computers YouTube channel. First, these instructions are for updating Open Web Analytics version 1.3.0 or later. Then, you will want to backup your WordPress database, if you installed Open Web Analytics in a WordPress plugins folder or backup your Open Web Analytics database, if you installed it standalone, in a directory outside of WordPress.
If you installed this free website analytics software stand alone, then you will want to delete your /path/to/owa/owa-data/caches directory. Then, you can download a latest version of Open Web Analytics software tarball in either zip or tape archive format. You will want to decompress this tarball and replace your current Open Web Anaylitcs files with these new ones.
If prompted, you will want to over write all files. Then you can check to see if any database updates are required by opening a web browser and navigating to your Open Web Analytics dashboard at https://yourdomain/path/to/owa. If any database updates are required, Open Web Analytics will prompt you to apply those updates within a WordPress dashboard in your web browser or tell you to run an update command using Open Web Analytics command line interface.
Are you using Open Web Analytics version 1.2.0 or earlier? You can check out these instructions on how to update Open Web Analytics for version 1.2.0 or earlier.
