Chris@0 8 == Upgrading
Chris@0 9
Chris@0 10 1. Uncompress the program archive in a new directory
Chris@0 11
Chris@0 12 2. Copy your database settings (RAILS_ROOT/config/database.yml)
Chris@210 13 and your configuration file (RAILS_ROOT/config/configuration.yml)
Chris@210 14 into the new config directory
Chris@210 15 Note: before Redmine 1.2, SMTP configuration was stored in
Chris@210 16 config/email.yml. It should now be stored in config/configuration.yml.
Chris@0 17
Chris@0 18 3. Copy the RAILS_ROOT/files directory content into your new installation
Chris@0 19 This directory contains all the attached files.
Chris@0 20
Chris@0 21 4. Copy the folders of the installed plugins and themes into new installation
Chris@0 22
Chris@0 23 5. Generate a session store secret
Chris@0 24
Chris@0 25 Redmine stores session data in cookies by default, which requires
Chris@0 26 a secret to be generated. Under the new application directory run:
Chris@0 27 rake generate_session_store
Chris@0 28
Chris@0 29 DO NOT REPLACE OR EDIT ANY OTHER FILES.
Chris@0 30
Chris@0 31 6. Migrate your database
Chris@0 32
Chris@441 33 If you are upgrading to Rails 2.3.11 as part of this migration, you
Chris@0 34 need to upgrade the plugin migrations before running the plugin migrations
Chris@0 35 using:
Chris@0 36 rake db:migrate:upgrade_plugin_migrations RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@0 37
Chris@0 38 Please make a backup before doing this! Under the new application
Chris@0 39 directory run:
Chris@0 40 rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@0 41
Chris@0 42 If you have installed any plugins, you should also run their database
Chris@0 43 migrations using:
Chris@0 44 rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@0 45
Chris@0 46 7. Clean up
Chris@0 47
Chris@0 48 Clear the cache and the existing sessions by running:
Chris@0 49 rake tmp:cache:clear
Chris@0 50 rake tmp:sessions:clear
Chris@0 51
Chris@0 52 8. Restart the application server (e.g. mongrel, thin, passenger)
Chris@0 53
Chris@0 54 9. Finally go to "Administration -> Roles & permissions" to check/set permissions
Chris@0 55 for new features, if any
