>A plain Bugzilla is fairly easy to upgrade from one version to a
|
|
newer one. However, things get a bit more complicated if you've made
|
|
changes to Bugzilla's code. In this case, you may have to re-make or
|
|
reapply those changes. It is recommended that you take a backup of your
|
|
database and your entire Bugzilla installation before attempting an
|
|
upgrade. You can upgrade a 'clean' installation by untarring a new
|
|
tarball over the old installation. If you are upgrading from 2.12 or
|
|
later, you can type
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="filename"
|
|
>cvs -z3 update</TT
|
|
>,
|
|
and resolve conflicts if there are any.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>Because the developers of Bugzilla are constantly adding new
|
|
tables, columns and fields, you'll probably get SQL errors if you just
|
|
update the code and attempt to use Bugzilla. Always run the
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="filename"
|
|
>checksetup.pl</TT
|
|
>
|
|
script whenever you upgrade your installation.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>If you are running Bugzilla version 2.8 or lower, and wish to
|
|
upgrade to the latest version, please consult the file,
|
|
"UPGRADING-pre-2.8" in the Bugzilla root directory after untarring the
|
|
archive.</P
