Hi Dspace gurus, I'm trying to upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6 and I'm not sure I'm understanding the instructions correctly (I'm certainly not winding up with a functional dspace 1.6!).
http://www.dspace.org/1_6_0Documentation/ch04.html#N10F06 ************************************************************************************************** Confusion #1: In section "4.1. Upgrading from 1.5.x to 1.6" It says: "In the notes below [dspace] refers to the install directory for your existing DSpace installation, and [dspace-source] to the source directory for DSpace 1.5" I'm assuming it should say the 1.6 source directory instead of 1.5? Actually there are parts where it seems like [dspace-source] refers to 1.5 and others where it seems to refer to 1.6. ************************************************************************************************** Confusion #2: In section 4.1 "5 : Update Configuration Files." I'm assuming the file to update is dspace.cfg? (looks like it, but "files" is plural and I want to make sure I'm not missing anything) Do I update my existing, installed dspace.cfg file? or the new dscpace.cfg file provided in the 1.6 source? Or both? I'm assuming just (or at least) [dspace]/config/dspace.cfg because that's what's targeted by ant in step 8? ************************************************************************************************** Confusion #3: I'm using an oracle database, and the upgrade process involves running a script, then examining the error output, then running some sql generated by that output. Is there an easy way to verify that this whole process has succeeded and I have a valid dspace 1.6 database? ************************************************************************************************** I'm pretty new to dspace so please forgive me if this should be obvious... Thanks in advance for your help with all or any of these issues!
