Hi John,
I think the steps for upgrading your system probably will be unique to your
particular grid in some ways - depending on what items you have customized,
your file structure, etc. - but I'm happy to share the steps I follow in
case that might be helpful. In general, you should be able to keep all of
your additional services and configuration options when you upgrade.
Here's a quick outline of the steps I follow:
STEP 1. Backup your database and take OAR snapshots of all regions. This
is the MOST important step!! You want to make sure you can always fully
restore your old setup in case something goes terribly awry with the
upgrade.
STEP 2. Download the newest version of Opensim and unzip to a NEW
directory. CAREFULLY read the release notes to make sure you understand
any new configuration options or changes to old configuration options
before proceeding.
STEP 3. Open old and new /bin/opensim.ini files side by side and copy
settings over by hand, checking carefully line-by-line for new
configuration options or changes that need to be made to old configuration
options (based on release notes). NEVER just overwrite the new file with
the old file - it is best to go through it line-by-line.
STEP 4. Ditto for /bin/robust.HG.ini file. NEVER just overwrite the new
file with the old file - it is best to go through it line-by-line.
STEP 5. Ditto for /bin/config-include/gridcommon.ini. NEVER just overwrite
the new file with the old file - it is best to go through it line-by-line.
STEP 6. You CAN copy over your regions.ini file from the old to the new.
STEP 7. Download the newest version of Diva Wifi for Robust and follow
installation instructions. ALWAYS read the latest release notes and
installation instructions before copying over old config information to new
.ini files.
STEP 8. Copy any customized graphics or html files from old Diva Wifi to
new Diva Wifi sub-directory.
STEP 9. Download the newest version of any other modules/add-ons you're
using and follow installation instructions. ALWAYS read the latest release
notes and installation instructions before copying over old config
information to new .ini files.
STEP 10. If you use smart-start and backup scripts, configure for new
directory names.
Then cross your fingers, hold your breath, and start everything up. :)
I have very detailed notes about previous upgrades I've done, plus
additional info about doing backups and other things at:
http://fleep.wikispaces.com/FleepGrid
You can search for the 2/26/12 entry to see step-by-step what I did the
last time I upgraded, including copies of my .ini files as examples, and
I'll be upgrading to 0.7.4 this weekend and will have updated notes on the
same page soon.
Hope this helps and let us know how your upgrade goes!
