Updating ownCloud
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
Update
|
|
------
|
|
Updating means updating ownCloud to the latest *point release*, e.g. ownCloud 4.0.6 → 4.0.7. To update an ownCloud installation manually, follow those steps:
|
|
|
|
.. note:: If you have installed ownCloud from a repository, your package management should take care of it.
|
|
|
|
#. Make a backup.
|
|
#. Unpack the release tarball in the owncloud directory, i.e. copy all new files into the ownCloud installation.
|
|
#. Make sure that the file permissions are correct.
|
|
#. After the next page request the update procedures will run.
|
|
|
|
Assuming your ownCloud installation is at **./owncloud/** and you want to update to the latest version, you could do the following:
|
|
|
|
Use rsync in archive mode (this leaves file owner, permissions, and time stamps untouched) to recursively copy all content from **./owncloud/** to a backup directory which contains the current date::
|
|
|
|
rsync -a owncloud/ owncloud_bkp`date +"%Y%m%d"`/
|
|
|
|
Download the latest version to the working directory::
|
|
|
|
wget http://download.owncloud.org/community/owncloud-latest.tar.bz2
|
|
|
|
Extract content of archive to **./owncloud_latest/**::
|
|
|
|
mkdir owncloud_latest; tar -C owncloud_latest -xjf owncloud-latest.tar.bz2
|
|
|
|
Use rsync to recursivly copy extracted files (new) to ownCloud installation (old) using modification times of the new files, but preserving owner and permissions of the old files:
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: You should not use this [--inplace] option to update files that are being accessed by others *(from rysnc man page)*
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
rsync --inplace -rtv owncloud_latest/owncloud/ owncloud/
|
|
|
|
Clean up::
|
|
|
|
rm -rf owncloud-latest.tar.bz2 owncloud_latest/
|
|
|
|
Upgrade
|
|
-------
|
|
Upgrade is to bring an ownCloud instance to a new *major release*, e.g.
|
|
ownCloud 4.0.7 → 4.5.0. Always do backups anyway.
|
|
|
|
To upgrade ownCloud, follow those steps:
|
|
|
|
#. Make sure that you ran the latest point release of the major ownCloud
|
|
version, e.g. 4.0.7 in the 4.0 series. If not, update to that version first
|
|
(see above).
|
|
#. **Make a backup of the ownCloud folder and the database**
|
|
#. Deactivate all third party applications.
|
|
#. Delete everything from your ownCloud installation directory, except data and
|
|
config.
|
|
#. Unpack the release tarball in the owncloud directory (or copy the
|
|
files thereto).
|
|
#. Make sure that the file permissions are correct.
|
|
#. With the next page request the update procedures will run.
|
|
#. If you had 3rd party applications, check if they provide versions compatible
|
|
with the new release.
|
|
|
|
If so, install and enable them, update procedures will run if needed. 9. If
|
|
you installed ownCloud from a repository, your package management should take
|
|
care of it. Probably you will need to look for compatible third party
|
|
applications yourself. Always do backups anyway.
