php5-gmp is an added requirement from StatusNet 1.1.1, our BigInteger library doesn't seem to work well without it and bcmath was unavailable at least in Debian testing repo.

Upgrading
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
StatusNet 1.1.1 to GNU social
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
We cannot support migrating from any other version of StatusNet than
|
|
1.1.1. If you are running a StatusNet version lower than this, please
|
|
follow the upgrade procedures for each respective StatusNet version.
|
|
|
|
You are now running StatusNet 1.1.1 and want to migrate to GNU social.
|
|
Beware there may be changes in minimum required version of PHP and the
|
|
modules used, so double-check the INSTALL file's requirements list.
|
|
|
|
Before you begin: Make backups. Always make backups. Of your entire
|
|
directory structure and the database too. All tables. All data. Alles.
|
|
|
|
0. Stop your queue daemons 'php scripts/stopdaemon.php' should do it.
|
|
Not everyone runs queue daemons, but the above command won't hurt.
|
|
|
|
1. Unpack your GNU social code to a fresh directory.
|
|
|
|
2. Synchronize your local files to the GNU social directory. These
|
|
will be the local files such as avatars, config and files:
|
|
|
|
avatar/*
|
|
background/*
|
|
file/*
|
|
local/*
|
|
.htaccess
|
|
config.php
|
|
|
|
3. Replace your old StatusNet directory with the new GNU social
|
|
directory in your webserver root.
|
|
|
|
4. Run the upgrade script: 'php scripts/upgrade.php'
|
|
|
|
5. Start your queue daemons: 'php scripts/startdaemons.php'
|
|
|
|
6. Report any issues at https://bugz.foocorp.net/ (tag GNU social)
|

Legacy StatusNet instructions
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
These instructions are here for historical and perhaps informational
|
|
purposes.
|
|
|
|
If you've been using StatusNet 1.0 or lower, or if you've
|
|
been tracking the "git" version of the software, you will probably
|
|
want to upgrade and keep your existing data. Try these step-by-step
|
|
instructions; read to the end first before trying them.
|
|
|
|
0. Download StatusNet and set up all the prerequisites as if you were
|
|
doing a new install.
|
|
1. Make backups of both your database and your Web directory. UNDER NO
|
|
CIRCUMSTANCES should you try to do an upgrade without a known-good
|
|
backup. You have been warned.
|
|
2. Shut down Web access to your site, either by turning off your Web
|
|
server or by redirecting all pages to a "sorry, under maintenance"
|
|
page.
|
|
3. Shut down XMPP access to your site, typically by shutting down the
|
|
xmppdaemon.php process and all other daemons that you're running.
|
|
If you've got "monit" or "cron" automatically restarting your
|
|
daemons, make sure to turn that off, too.
|
|
4. Shut down SMS and email access to your site. The easy way to do
|
|
this is to comment out the line piping incoming email to your
|
|
maildaemon.php file, and running something like "newaliases".
|
|
5. Once all writing processes to your site are turned off, make a
|
|
final backup of the Web directory and database.
|
|
6. Move your StatusNet directory to a backup spot, like "statusnet.bak".
|
|
7. Unpack your StatusNet 1.1.1 tarball and move it to "statusnet" or
|
|
wherever your code used to be.
|
|
8. Copy the config.php file and the contents of the avatar/, background/,
|
|
file/, and local/ subdirectories from your old directory to your new
|
|
directory.
|
|
9. Copy htaccess.sample to .htaccess in the new directory. Change the
|
|
RewriteBase to use the correct path.
|
|
10. Upgrade the database.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: this step is destructive and cannot be
|
|
reversed. YOU CAN EASILY DESTROY YOUR SITE WITH THIS STEP. Don't
|
|
do it without a known-good backup!
|
|
|
|
In your new StatusNet 1.1.1 directory and AFTER YOU MAKE A
|
|
BACKUP run the upgrade.php script like this:
|
|
|
|
php ./scripts/upgrade.php
|
|
|
|
11. Use mysql or psql client to log into your database and make sure that
|
|
the notice, user, profile, subscription etc. tables are non-empty.
|
|
12. Turn back on the Web server, and check that things still work.
|
|
13. Turn back on XMPP bots and email maildaemon.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: the 1.0.0 version of StatusNet changed the URLs for all admin
|
|
panels from /admin/* to /panel/*. This now allows the (popular)
|
|
username 'admin', but blocks the considerably less popular username
|
|
'panel'. If you have an existing user named 'panel', you should rename
|
|
them before upgrading.
