| - | ====== Manual Upgrade ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | This procedure is compatible with any version greater or equal to 1.4. For an older version, ask for help on the forum. | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | <WRAP center info round 60%>Please do check Piwigo current [[user_documentation:learn:install:before|Requirements]]. Especially if your Php / MySQL configuration is NOT sufficient, do not go further as the upgrade process will fail.</WRAP> | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 1 - Package preparation ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | * [[http://piwigo.org/download/dlcounter.php?code=latest|Download]] the latest Piwigo release archive | ||
| - | * On your computer, extract the "piwigo" directory. | ||
| - | * Remove the default "piwigo/local" directory. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 2 - Database preparation ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Backup your current tables (3-5 min.) | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you are using a version from the PhpWebGallery 1.7 family or later, you can use the [[http://piwigo.org/ext/extension_view.php?eid=240|DB Backup]] plugin. Previous releases users should have to backup their tables by other means, for example with phpMyAdmin <wrap em>[fig A]</wrap>. | ||
| - | |||
| - | {{ http://piwigo.org/screenshots/upgrade-2-fig_1_en.jpg?500 }} | ||
| - | <WRAP em center centeralign 50%>[A] PhpMyAdmin recommended options.</WRAP> | ||
| - | |||
| - | **In any case**, be sure to check the backup is exhaustive and has successfully completed (the result is sometimes truncated due to server limits). | ||
| - | |||
| - | [Our advice: unselect "Extended inserts" or reduce "Maximal length of created queries".] | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 3 - File server preparation ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you're running Piwigo 2.1 or higher, skip this step. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Backup your customized files only or all files (5 minutes). | ||
| - | |||
| - | * [[http://piwigo.org/ext/download.php?eid=391|Download the Prepare 2.1 Upgrade extension tool]] | ||
| - | * extract the prep21up.php script and transfer it at the root of your Piwigo installation | ||
| - | * open prep21up.php from your web browser %%http://example.com/photos/prep21up.php%% and you will receive an "upgrade21.zip" archive | ||
| - | * On your computer, extract the "local" directory from "upgrade21.zip" into the "piwigo" directory (extracted during step 1). | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 4 - Gallery preparation ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Lock your gallery (1 minute) <wrap em>[fig B]</wrap> | ||
| - | |||
| - | {{ http://piwigo.org/screenshots/upgrade-2-fig_2_en.jpg?500 }} | ||
| - | <WRAP em center centeralign 50%>[B] Lock gallery.</WRAP> | ||
| - | |||
| - | With Piwigo 2.3 or earlier version: Configuration > General > Lock gallery. For Piwigo 2.4+: Tools > Maintenance. | ||
| - | |||
| - | From now on, non-administrator users of any gallery version should see something like: //"The gallery is locked for maintenance. Please, come back later."//. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 5 - Cleaning ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Remove all files of your current Piwigo installation, with the following exceptions, do **NOT** delete these directories: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * galleries | ||
| - | * upload | ||
| - | * plugins | ||
| - | * themes | ||
| - | * template-extension | ||
| - | * local | ||
| - | * _data | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 6 - FTP upload ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Use your standard FTP client to upload the new release, ie the content of the //"piwigo"// directory (extracted during step 1 and updated during step 3), into the previous Piwigo installation directory. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Check that your FTP client did not encounter any error. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 7 - Database upgrade ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Launching upgrade (2 minutes). | ||
| - | |||
| - | In your web browser, open the "upgrade.php" script and follow the guide, %%http://example.com/photos/upgrade.php%% <wrap em>[fig C]</wrap> | ||
| - | |||
| - | {{ http://piwigo.org/screenshots/upgrade-2-fig_3_en.jpg?500 }} | ||
| - | <WRAP em center centeralign 50%>[C] Starting upgrade page.</WRAP> | ||
| - | |||
| - | To avoid any upgrade by another visitor you are invited to sign on. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Your previous release is identified and you will get a summary of the upgrade operations; see <wrap em>[fig D]</wrap>. | ||
| - | |||
| - | {{ http://piwigo.org/screenshots/upgrade-2-fig_4_en.jpg?500 }} | ||
| - | <WRAP em center centeralign 50%>[D] Upgrade memo page.</WRAP> | ||
| - | |||
| - | Plugins active before the upgrade will be switched off to inactive status, as they could fail to work with the new release and need their own specific upgrade. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 8 - Check the upgrade result ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Your first controls could take time because you are not aware of all the changes (15 to 120 minutes). | ||
| - | |||
| - | You will see a list of all your previous plugins; some of them have been fully integrated in the core (like Plugins Manager), others are now distributed (like LocalFiles Editor), but any desactivated plugin has been so for a good reason. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Try to find an upgrade first; the plugins tabsheets can help you. | ||
| - | |||
| - | For themes, keep an admin page opened in your browser in case you need to reverse any of your tests. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Don't forget that your members or visitors can have a specific selected theme which is not compatible with your new release. You'd probably better have to reset their theme in the Admin users page. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 9 - Unlock your gallery ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | You begin to be confortable with our last release, do not forget to unlock your gallery to give access to visitors (1 minute). | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 10 - Post upgrade cleaning ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Nothing (0 minute) | ||
| - | |||
| - | Nothing has to be removed after any upgrade. The "upgrade.php" itself is not to be removed. Remember that the //"No upgrade required"// message and the sign-on process are protecting your gallery. | ||
