Upgrade Panel and OS

  • Hi guys
    I have a little VPS with:
    SO: Wheezy
    I-mscp 1.2.2
    Mod FCGI
    Plugins: Panel redirect - Opendkim - SpamAssassin
    Tools: PhpPgAdmin, Adminer
    DDBB: PostgreSql 9.1
    Active Domain: 13


    What I want to do:
    Upgrade OS to Jessie with Systemd
    Upgrade PHP to 7.0
    Upgrade panel to the latest version
    Keept FCGI mode (or is convenient FPM ot ITK?)
    Activate a second DNS
    Install LetsEncript plugin for the panel and four domain


    My questions


    Should I upgrade the panel or OS first?
    To activate the second DNS, should I do it while upgrade the panel or after that?
    This how to configure the second DNS is right? (https://i-mscp.net/index.php/T…meserver-Howto/#post42006)



    To upgrade the panel I must:


    1.- Deactivate an delete all the active plugins
    2.- Stop Mysql service
    3.- stop imscp_panel
    4.- stop ftp service


    Should I do this?


    • Code
      1. # service apache2 stop# pkill -KILL -f apache2# apt-get --assume-yes --auto-remove purge apache2*# rm -f /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_fcgi.so# dpkg-divert --rename --remove /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_fcgi.so# rm -rf /etc/apache2 /usr/lib/apache2 /var/lib/apache2

      and this?

    • Code
      1. # umount -l /var/www/virtual
      2. # umount -l /var/www
      3. # mount -a



    Is this right?, ... any other advice to jump to 1.2.2 to 1.4.3?


    Thanks in advance

    Upgrade OS to Jessie with Systemd

    Thats no Problem. I did it a few Weeks ago. (Debian 7 > 8.7)

    I upgraded the OS first.


    There is a good Guide, in German, but the Code is the same in English: ;)

    Should I do this?
