Upgrade client to 1.9

Upgraded client Moodle to 1.9

Currently client is running 1.8.3+ so upgrade shouldn’t be too difficult. Client is also running questionnaire module so upgrade that too.

Backups

• backed up datadir: cp -a datadir datadir.bak.20080306.vri
• backed up codebase: cp -a codebase codebase.bak.20080306.vri
• backed up database: mysqldump -u moodleuser –password=pw –single-transaction -C -Q -e -a moodle > moodle-database.20080306.vri.sql

Downloads

• moodle code
• questionnaire code

Upgrade

• enable maintenance mode
• set theme to default
• cp new codebase over old codebase
• set owners and permissions
• go to admin
• set theme back
• some pix were missing so enabled smart pix in Miscellaneous
• copy and unzip new questionnaire code
• go to admin
• checked indexes
• repaired one index
• use replace.php to replace production <> test server url
• disable maintenance mode

Scripts

• Installed custom scripts
• Testing: superusers works, group sync does not work because table group_course_groups does not exist anymore.
• So we have to find another solution for that
