Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Recomendations for upgrade my system (5.1 to 5.5)

To minimize hassles, upgrade the components of the system in parallel. The compatibility matrix provides paths that work using complete compatibility.

For example consider this upgrade path:
from Openacs 5.1.5, PG 7.4, Aolserver 4.0.10
upgrade OpenACS to 5.2
verify system works
upgrade PostgreSQL to 8.2
verify system works
upgrade AOLserver to 4.5
verify system works
upgrade OpenACS to 5.5
verify system works

This is the path I've used..

cheers,

Torben

Hi Torben!

Thanks, I was hoping to do it directly.

But If I click "upgrade system" or "install software" from Admin Panel I found this error:

" ...
Couldn't get the package list. Please try again later.
while executing
"error "Couldn't get the package list. Please try again later.""
(procedure "apm_get_package_repository" line 19)
invoked from within
"apm_get_package_repository -repository_url $repository_url -array repository"
("uplevel" body line 30)

... " (It is a Server Error of https://openacs.org/repository )

So, do I have to do it manually?

As you said, I'll upgrade my system in parallel.

Regards,
Cesáreo
