Previous upgrade notes: Drupal Upgrade Plan

  • These notes are mostly just a copy of the previous upgrade, but are being modified still :)

Upgrading the OSGeo Drupal CMS is a complicated task further complicated by the use of multi-site configuration. To upgrade from current 5.3 (??) to the newest 6.x (??) version the following steps should be taken (doubles as a check list):

Time estimation

I estimate that the total read-only time for the OSGeo sites will be around 1 day if everything goes according to plan, this does not include the preliminary tasks which have to be completed prior to doing the upgrade.

Preliminary tasks

DNS Changes

Redirect any *test* instances?

Debian Package Installation

osgeo3/4 run debian linux OS. The server has no apache, drupal or any other packages already installed. Here is the list of packages to be installed to get support for our Drupal sites up and running:

  • apache2

UPDATE 6-Oct-10: The following packages have been installed: apache2 mysql5.1 php5-gd php5 php5-mysql php-5-cli

Review Module Availability
