Update i-MSCP with dotdeb.org sources

Sierra · Nov 5th 2014

Hi,

i have a problem to update a debian squeeze system from i-MSCP 1.1.13 to 1.1.14. The autoinstall-script ask me if i have a mysql-5.1 and other dbs, but i have a mysql-5.5 from dotdeb.org (and a newer php-version). I choose mysql-5.1.

After the autoinstall-script failed with an error, i check the actual mysql-version is 5.1 and the dotdeb-sources cleaned from the sources.list. Then i go back to mysql-5.5 and start the 1.1.13 autoinstall-script and then all works again.

What shoul i do, when i want to use the dotdeb-sources and got to a newer version of I-MSCP?

And should i go directly to 1.1.16 or should i go every step from 1.1.13 to 1.1.14 to 1.1.15 to 1.1.16?
Should i go to mariadb 10? With the autoinstall-script or hand-upgrade via apt-get?

Thank you all for your answers and i hope my english is good enough.

Greets,
Sierra

Hello ;

In your specific case, you must add your own section in the squeeze package file ( docs/Debian/packages-squeeze.xml ) which describe the dotdeb repository for use.

Eg:

XML

<mysql_5.5
pinning_package="mysql-server-5.5 mysql-server-5.5 mysql-common libmysqlclient16 libmysqlclient18"
pinning_pin="origin packages.dotdeb.org"
pinning_pin_priority="1001"
repository="deb http://packages.dotdeb.org squeeze all"
repository_origin="packages.dotdeb.org"
repository_key_uri="http://www.dotdeb.org/dotdeb.gpg"
allow_switch_to="mariadb_5.5,mariadb_10.0,percona_5.5,percona_5.6,remote_server"
>
<package>mysql-server-5.5</package>
<package>mysql-client-5.5</package>
<package>mysql-common</package>
</mysql_5.5>

you must add that section after the mysql_5.1 section. Once it's done, just run the installer normally.

BTW: You must update to the 1.1.16 directly

Oh, directly to 1.1.6? In 1.1.6 the bugfixes and changes from 1.1.5 and 1.1.4 are integraded in 1.1.6?

Is it recommended to swap to mariadb 10? I think so!

@Sierra

You want surely mean to 1.1.16...

Yes, directly to 1.1.16. Updates are incremental so dont worry

About MariaDB, choice is in your hands
