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@1115 22 Plugins must be stored in the [redmine_root]/plugins directory
Chris@1115 23 Themes must be stored in the [redmine_root]/public/themes directory
Chris@0 24
Chris@1115 25 WARNING: plugins from your previous Redmine version may not be compatible
Chris@1115 26 with the Redmine version you're upgrading to.
Chris@1115 27
Chris@1115 28 5. Install the required gems by running:
Chris@1115 29 bundle install --without development test
Chris@1115 30
Chris@1115 31 If ImageMagick is not installed on your system, you should skip the installation
Chris@1115 32 of the rmagick gem using:
Chris@1115 33 bundle install --without development test rmagick
Chris@1115 34
Chris@1115 35 6. Generate a session store secret
Chris@0 36
Chris@0 37 Redmine stores session data in cookies by default, which requires
Chris@0 38 a secret to be generated. Under the new application directory run:
Chris@1115 39 rake generate_secret_token
Chris@0 40
Chris@0 41 DO NOT REPLACE OR EDIT ANY OTHER FILES.
Chris@0 42
Chris@1115 43 7. Migrate your database
Chris@0 44
Chris@909 45 If you are upgrading to Rails 2.3.14 as part of this migration, you
Chris@0 46 need to upgrade the plugin migrations before running the plugin migrations
Chris@0 47 using:
Chris@0 48 rake db:migrate:upgrade_plugin_migrations RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@0 49
Chris@0 50 Please make a backup before doing this! Under the new application
Chris@0 51 directory run:
Chris@0 52 rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@0 53
Chris@0 54 If you have installed any plugins, you should also run their database
Chris@0 55 migrations using:
Chris@0 56 rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@0 57
Chris@1115 58 8. Clear the cache and the existing sessions by running:
Chris@0 59 rake tmp:cache:clear
Chris@0 60 rake tmp:sessions:clear
Chris@0 61
Chris@1115 62 9. Restart the application server (e.g. mongrel, thin, passenger)
Chris@0 63
Chris@1115 64 10. Finally go to "Administration -> Roles & permissions" to check/set permissions
Chris@1115 65 for new features, if any
