[rt-users] Upgrade Directory

2010-05-12 Thread borngunners



I need to know where the extracted src 3.8.8 has to be during the upgrade from 
3.8.4. Do I have to copy the entire directory to the current 3.8.4 directory 
before doing the upgrade? I have read the READ ME and there is no where in 
there that they stated it.

Honestly, I will need a step by step instruction to do the upgrade. I have 
never done the upgrade before. And I am new to the whole RT setup, I just took 
over a position and they wanted me to upgrade to the latest version.


Thanks

just follow GENERAL INSTALLATION in README, upgrade instructions are
provided when needed.

to quickly answer, you untar RT in another directory than your
production one (some kind of src or tmp directory). You follow steps the
same as for installation, but:

- you read UPGRADING file
- you run make upgrade instead of make install

but once again, read carefully README file, everything you need is
inside.

PS: don't forget to backup before upgrade...
