Upgrading from 2.0.0 to 2.0.2
April 14, 2008, 06:20:31 pm
It looks like I need to upgrade from 2.0.0 to 2.0.2 because of a issue I have that is fixed in 2.0.2. I however am new to CiviCRM and Drupal for that matter but am learning fast. I am a bit confused as to how to perform this upgrade on CiviCRM's website there is documentatoin of how to upgrade from 1.7 to 1.8 (I am assuming these are generic instructions) but there are also instructions for upgrading revisions in the same version.

First going from 2.0.0 to 2.0.2 is this a version or revision upgrade

Second are the instructions I mentioned above appropriate to follow for this upgrade. If not could you point me to the correct ones.

Thanks

FYI: If you a curious the problem I am running into is using smart groups as recipients in CiviMail apparently this is a know issue that has been resolved.

For drupal the upgrade with minor versions is just a code upgrade. You can untar the package in the appropriate place and should be all set (to be safe you should truncate the sessions table and delete the templates_c directory to avoid any smarty caching issues)

If your civimail issue is: http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-2951, that is not part of 2.0.2. It will be part of 2.0.3 which is expected to be released at the end of this month

You can patch your code with the diff here: http://biryani.osuosl.org:8181/changelog/CiviCRM/branches/v2.0?cs=13885

not really. you are just overwriting the old 2.0.0 codebase. you retain and reuse the same settings file and db etc

nothing to be done in drupal admin screen

When I installed CiviCRM I untared the code into my drupal/sites/all/modules directory. This created drupal/sites/all/modules/civicrm. Do I remove the directory and then just extract the new version in its place or do I extract the new one over top of the old one?

What about the drupal/files/civicrm directory?

Thanks
Mike

1. You can extract it over the old one

2. delete drupal/files/civicrm. civicrm will recreate it

The 2 steps above are it then? I don't need to run any scripts?

Yes, to upgrade between two revisions of the same (here, 2.0) release it’s enough to just extract the files. You don’t have to run any scripts, and just to be sure, you can delete the files/civicrm/templates_c directory as well as truncate the sessions table of your Drupal database.

Donald, Piotr,

Thankyou very much for stating this clearly. This would be a very good issue to address in the documentation. I know that some of this exists already but it isn't writen genericly. It specifies specific versions in most cases leaving you to wonder if those are special instructions for that version. Also there should be something in the uprade section of the documentation that explains the difference between a revision and version. Now that I had it explained to me it is easy. However coming into this as a newby I didn't know how the versioning of the software was notated.

Again thanks for the help. I am really excited about putting CiviCRM into production.

Mike

Mike - I've updated the general instructions for upgrading from one revision to another (and including an explanation of Versions and Revisions):
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Upgrading+to+a+new+CiviCRM+Revision+on+Drupal

Would be great if you could review the updated doc and add / clarify anything if needed based on your recent "adventure" :-)

I've also added a link to this page from the "version 1.9 to 2.0" upgrade doc:

I followed the instructions you created in the Doc and the process seemed to go smoothly. The information you posted in the doc answered the basic generic questions I (and I imagine other new users) would have about upgrading from revision to another.
