 NOTE: The update process is relatively safe and rarely, if ever, causes data loss. That said BACKUP YOUR EXISTING DATABASE AND CONFIGURATION prior to updating. You almost certainly will not need the backup, but if you do you'll be glad it's there.

Take care to preserve your media directory (`media/`), local configuration directory (`app/conf/local/`), any local print templates (`app/printTemplates/`) and your setup.php file.

 If you are updating from a version prior to 1.7, you must recreate your existing setup.php as the format has changed. Rename the existing setup.php to `setup.php-old` and copy the version 1.7.12 setup.php template in `setup.php-dist` to `setup.php`. Edit this file with your database login information, system name and other basic settings. You can reuse the settings in your existing setup.php file as-is. Only the format of setup.php has changed. If you are updating from version 1.7.x you do not need to change your setup.php file.
