Upgrading from Redmine stable version to development
Added by Neil K about 15 years ago
I have Redmine 0.8.4.stable.2796 (MySQL) working on an RHEL 5.3 box with ruby 1.8.7, rails (2.3.2, 2.2.2, 2.1.2), MySQL 5.0. How can I change the Redmine installation from Stable to Development? Is there any way of doing this without performing a full re-installation?
Any help will in this regard will be great.
Regards,
Neil

I would make a copy of the web, a copy of the db, use the new db on the new copy. then update that source with the update guide (migration). Then you see, how it works, I guess, I might lose a plugin...

How about using SVN? I mean you could create a SVN repository, with the existing installation, then do the upgrade, and see what happens. If anything wrong, you can revert via SVN.

Thanks for your directions. As I mentioned, I have a stable version installed and I want to change it to a development version. If I do a "svn update" from the redmine root directory, I will get updated to the latest stable build, not development build, right?

Thanks for your information. That worked!
Here is what I did if this helps any others.
1. Logged in as the redmine user and went to the the redmine root directory
2. changed the svn url using : svn switch http://redmine.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk
After that, I have followed the Upgrade Guide i.e.
- rake config/initializers/session_store.rb
- rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
- rake db:migrate:upgrade_plugin_migrations RAILS_ENV="production"
- rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV="production"
- rake tmp:cache:clear
- rake tmp:sessions:clear
Then I restarted the application and could see that the stable version was upgraded to development.
Thanks again for your helpful directions.

Neil

Hi all,
After upgrading to the development version (Redmine 0.8.4.devel.2815), I am getting an "Internal error" when accessing "My Page". Here is the log :
ActionView::TemplateError (undefined method `-' for {:length=>60}:Hash) on line #20 of app/views/issues/_list_simple.rhtml:
17: <td class="project"><%= link_to(h(issue.project), :controller => 'projects', :action => 'show', :id => issue.project) ></td>
18: <td class="tracker"><=h issue.tracker ></td>
19: <td class="subject">
20: <= link_to h(truncate(issue.subject, :length => 60)), :controller => 'issues', :action => 'show', :id => issue > (<=h issue.status >)
21: </td>
22: </tr>
23: < end %>
Any idea?
Regards,
Neil

I am getting the same internal error when I perform a search also.
error log:
