Upgrade to 1.9

March 11, 2008 – 10:46

Upgraded client to 1.9 from 1.9 beta3.

  • backed up database
  • backed up datadir
  • set maintenance mode
  • set theme to standard
  • download moodle code
  • untar moodle code
  • cp -a newcode oldcode
  • go to admin
  • set back theme -> copied closed.gif and open.gif

Client wanted to dump and restore database of 1.8 environment but that is not possible because database has changed. So, if he wants to migrate his 1.8 environment, he has to use the course backup and restore function of Moodle.

But! Client wanted to test upgrade from production version which is 1.8.4. So created fresh Moodle 1.8.4 install and copied database and datadir. After client acceptance, upgraded synched test environment to 1.9.
