1 UPGRADING instructions
2 ======================
3
4 Follow these instructions if upgrading from a previous version
5 of Roundcube Webmail. We recommend to carefully backup the existing
6 installation as well as the database before going through the following steps.
7
8 Using the update script
9 -----------------------
10 There is a shell script (for unix based systems) that does the job for you.
11 To use it, unpack the archive of the new Roundcube version to a temporary location
12 (don't replace the Roundcube installation you want to update)
13 and cd into that directory. From there, run the following command in a shell:
14
15 ./bin/installto.sh <TARGET-FOLDER>
16
17 For <TARGET-FOLDER> you specify the path to the Roundcube installation
18 which should be updated. The update script will then copy all new files to the
19 target location and check and update the configuration and database schema.
20 After all is done, the temporary folder with the new Roundcube files can be
21 removed again.

23 WARNING: See Post-Upgrade Activities section below.

26 Updating manually
27 -----------------
28 If you don't have shell access to the Roundcube installation or if not running
29 it on a unix system, you need to do the following operations by hand:
30
31 1. Replace index.php and all files in
32 - ./bin/
33 - ./SQL/
34 - ./program/
35 - ./installer/
36 2. Replace the configuration defaults files:
37 - config/defaults.inc.php
38 - config/mimetypes.php
39 3. rsync the contents of the following folders from your installation
40 directory into the target folder:
41 ./skins/
42 ./plugins/
43 ./vendor/
44 4. Update dependencies:
45 4a. If you previously installed plugins through composer, update dependencies
46 by running `php composer.phar update --no-dev`.
47 4b. Install/update dependencies using composer:
48 - get composer from https://getcomposer.org/download/
49 - rename the composer.json-dist file into composer.json
50 - if you want to use LDAP address books, enable the LDAP libraries in your
51 composer.json file by moving the items from "suggest" to the "require"
52 section (remove the explanation texts after the version!).
53 - run `php composer.phar install --no-dev`.
54 4c. If you use git sources or the release package without dependencies
55 update javascript dependencies by executing `bin/install-jsdeps.sh` script.
56 5. Run `./bin/update.sh` from the commandline OR
57 open http://url-to-roundcube/installer/ in a browser and choose "3 Test config".
58 To enable the latter one, you have to temporary set 'enable_installer'
59 to true in your local config/config.inc.php file.
60 WARNING: See SQLite database upgrade below.
61 6. Let the update script/installer check your configuration and
62 update your config files and database schema as suggested by the updater.
63 7. Make sure 'enable_installer' is set to false again.
64 8. See Post-Upgrade Activities section.

66
67 Post-Upgrade Activities
68 -----------------------
69 1. Check .htaccess settings (some php settings could become required)
70 2. If you're using build-in addressbook, run indexing script /bin/indexcontacts.sh.
71 3. When upgrading from version older than 0.6-beta you should make sure
72 your folder settings contain namespace prefix. For example Courier users
73 should add INBOX. prefix to folder names in main configuration file.
74 4. Check system requirements in INSTALL file.
75
76 SQLite database upgrade
77 -----------------------
78 Versions older than 0.9 were supporting SQLite v2 only. Newer versions require
79 database in v3 format. The best what you can do is to convert database file
80 to the new format using command line tools:
81
82 sqlite OLD.DB .dump | sqlite3 NEW.DB
