Chris@909: == Upgrading
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 1. Uncompress the program archive in a new directory
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 2. Copy your database settings (RAILS_ROOT/config/database.yml)
Chris@909:    and your configuration file (RAILS_ROOT/config/configuration.yml)
Chris@909:    into the new config directory
Chris@909:    Note: before Redmine 1.2, SMTP configuration was stored in
Chris@909:    config/email.yml. It should now be stored in config/configuration.yml. 
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 3. Copy the RAILS_ROOT/files directory content into your new installation
Chris@909:    This directory contains all the attached files.
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 4. Copy the folders of the installed plugins and themes into new installation
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 5. Generate a session store secret
Chris@909:    
Chris@909:    Redmine stores session data in cookies by default, which requires
Chris@909:    a secret to be generated. Under the new application directory run:
Chris@909:      rake generate_session_store
Chris@909:    
Chris@909:    DO NOT REPLACE OR EDIT ANY OTHER FILES.
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 6. Migrate your database
Chris@909: 
Chris@909:    If you are upgrading to Rails 2.3.14 as part of this migration, you
Chris@909:    need to upgrade the plugin migrations before running the plugin migrations
Chris@909:    using:
Chris@909:      rake db:migrate:upgrade_plugin_migrations RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@909:    
Chris@909:    Please make a backup before doing this! Under the new application
Chris@909:    directory run:
Chris@909:      rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@909:    
Chris@909:    If you have installed any plugins, you should also run their database
Chris@909:    migrations using:
Chris@909:      rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV="production"
Chris@909:    
Chris@909: 7. Clean up
Chris@909:    
Chris@909:    Clear the cache and the existing sessions by running:
Chris@909:      rake tmp:cache:clear
Chris@909:      rake tmp:sessions:clear
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 8. Restart the application server (e.g. mongrel, thin, passenger)
Chris@909: 
Chris@909: 9. Finally go to "Administration -> Roles & permissions" to check/set permissions
Chris@909:    for new features, if any
Chris@909:
