Hi,
Regarding the user postgres: this is your DB superuser, never use it as a
normal user login to lsmb. 'root' also should never used in any context (as
login name or whatever).
------------
Regarding the upgrade process, in that case, when you want to skip aptitude and
you have otherwise a working environment:
Let's say, your ledgersmb located on the filesystem under /usr/share/ledgersmb
In this case the upgrade steps are the following (consider a backup about your
VM :) :
download the source of the latest and greatest ledgersmb (1.3.38)
untar it into a temporarty directory, let's say, /tmp/lsmb
set the ownership to the same as your current files ( /usr/share/ledgersmb ),
for example www-data:www-data : chown -R www-data:www-data /tmp/lsmb
you can set permisson too, for example: chmod -R 0777 /tmp/lsmb
copy all files from the new location (/tmp/lsmb/* to the old place:
/usr/share/ledgersmb/* )
login to the setup.pl: http://localhost/setup.pl (you are using ssh tunneling,
that is why I wrote this)
use your postgresql superuser account to login and give the database name you
are using
Choose Rebuild to get a fresh, updated DB
Start using ledgersmb
Login as normal user
Cheers,
István
