Upgrade (manual)

Based on the changes of new versions, you have to do several steps to upgrade your installation.

Note: You can only upgrade from a directly previous version to it's following version. Example: From 1.9.11 to 1.9.12, not from 1.9.8 to 1.9.12

Configuration update

Before you start, you have to check which values are new at the configuration file (Redundancy.conf). New values are appended at the end of the configuration file. Copy the new values to your configuration file.

Note: You can only upgrade from a directly previous version to it's following version.

DataBase update

In some cases new columns are added to the database tables. There are queries to update the database tables from a previous version to the following.

The query folder is https://github.com/squarerootfury/redundancy/tree/unstable/Documents/Database%20Upgrade%20Queries

Execute the query in your MySQL dump or in your database management software (e. g. phpMyAdmin). If successfully, your database tables should be ready for the new version.

Remove configuration values in new(!) package

Remove the files Redundancy.conf and Includes/DataBase.inc.php from the new extracted Redundancy source. Also remove /Storage/ /Temp/ and /Snapshots/ from the new version folder to avoid the overwrite of your database configuaration and your data.

Step 2 - Copy the new program files

Now copy the new contents to your Redundancy folder (it will replace anything except your config and your data). Now you should be able to run the new revision of Redundancy.

Now you can access your Redundancy server like usual.
