I have recently updated the news extension for my Typo3 installation. Now, if I click on the button "News Administration" on the left panel and then on the folder with my news, I get an error:
Button "TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Template\Components\Buttons\LinkButton" is not valid
The provided link shows it's the TYPO3 exception 1441706370.
I am running an old Typo3 version (7.6.19.) which I wanted to update. But I thought it'd be wise to first update all extensions before updating Typo3 (and PHP and MySQL..).
PHP 7.4.33
MySQL 5.7.38
What is now the smartest way to go on? I want to ensure that my system will run later with the newest versions without any data loss on the way.
I checked the documentation and the changelog of the news extension. But I did not find a hint on what to do yet.
if you planned to upgrade to the latest version greater than 7.x then you better ignore this. just focus on upgrade wizards that you don't miss any upgrade wizard provided by some extensions to upgrade from one version of TYPO3 to another version.
Post upgrade from AEM 6.2 with SP1 to AEM 6.4 few of the packages are not installed. The older version is on installed state.
For the new package is showing the message as "A different version seems to be installed:" see the below screen shot.
Because of this i could see few of the scripts are not updated with latest API.
For example
AEM 6.4 upgraded instance : /libs/cq/ui/components/widget/html.jsp -> API reference com.day.cq.widget.HtmlLibraryManager
AEM 6.4 Vanila instance : /libs/cq/ui/components/widget/html.jsp -> API reference com.adobe.granite.ui.clientlibs.HtmlLibraryManager
This issue is currently resolved by overlaying the file and updated with the new API com.adobe.granite.ui.clientlibs.HtmlLibraryManager
This package is not able to install manually. When i am trying to install getting the error as javax.jcr.nodetype.ConstraintViolationException: OakConstraint0074: Attempt to add, modify or remove the system maintained property 'rep:externalId'.
This is because of upgrade is not done properly. During the upgrade few packages is not upgraded from older version to new version due to javax.jcr.nodetype.ConstraintViolationException. This is because of custom code has updated 'rep:externalId' to the users and system user in the AEM 6.2 instance. During the upgrade this properly in the System user creates javax.jcr.nodetype.ConstraintViolationException. So i have deleted this property from system user before upgrade. This works for the above problem.
Note : Since Oak 1.5.8 the system-maintained property rep:externalId is protected and can not be altered using regular JCR and Jackrabbit API, irrespective of the permission setup of the editing session.
I want to upgrade a moodle website currently on version 2.5 to the latest version.
I need to clarify that is it possible to upgrade Moodle 2.5 directly to Moodle 3.3.
OR
As mentioned in the moodle upgradation document
"Note: You can only upgrade to Moodle 3.0 from Moodle 2.2 or later. If upgrading from earlier versions, you must upgrade to 2.2 as a first step."
I can only upgrade to Moodle 3.0.
Please confirm.
Thanks in advance.
In order to upgrade Moodle 2.5 to 3.3, start by backing up your site. This includes:
The Moodle files.
The Moodledata files.
The Moodle database.
Make sure you have everything and that no errors occurred while you were backing it up. If you want to be extra sure, restore it to a different location, maybe even locally on your computer and get it working there. Don't forget to adjust the settings in the config.php file as well as running the Moodle Search and Replace tool (it is not in the Moodle menus). Once you are sure that everything is working, and you still have the original unmodified backup files, you are ready to move on to the next step.
Verify your web server environment
Make sure your web server meets the hardware requirements for Moodle 3.3. Note the changes, especially in memory requirements from 2.5 to 3.3. Also make sure your server meets the software requirements for Moodle 2.7. In fact, when upgrading, it is best to verify the software requirements for every version of Moodle you will be skipping in order to find out which system components you will need to be add before proceeding.
Also, before you get started, make sure any 3rd party plugin and themes added to your site will be compatible with Moodle 2.7 and Moodle 3.3. If not, you will need to upgrade these first. If they are not available for the newer releases of Moodle, check with the maintainer of the plugin/theme to see if there might be an updated version forthcoming. If not, you will either need to fix any problems in the code yourself that may come up, switch to another similar plugin that provides similar functionality or remove the plugin completely.
Re-creating .git
The easiest way to upgrade Moodle is using Git. If Moodle was not installed using the "git clone" command, your installation will likely be missing the .git directory. You can check this by using the "git status" command. If you already have a .git folder, you can skip this section and go straight to Upgrade to Moodle 2.7. Otherwise, here is how you can re-create it:
Take note of the build date for your current Moodle installation. You'll find this on its Notification page near the bottom of the page.
Re-create your .git folder using the following commands:
# git clone a new copy of Moodle into another location
git clone git://git.moodle.org/moodle.git
# Checkout Moodle 2.5 (the version of your current site).
cd moodle
git checkout MOODLE_25_STABLE
Look through the log for a weekly release that is dated the same as your build number. The build number is a date in the following format: YYYYMMDD. Take note of the related commit number.
Next, rollback the files to the commit number of the build. Replace "56e05fced" with the actual commit number.
git reset 56e05fced
Once this is done, copy the just the .git folder into the web root of your current Moodle site.
Upgrading to Moodle 2.7
Before you get started, make sure any 3rd party plugin and themes added to your site will be compatible with Moodle 2.7. If not, you will need to upgrade these first.
git checkout MOODLE_27_STABLE
Login to your website as an administrator. You should see prompts that will guide you through the process of upgrading Moodle.
IMPORTANT: Up to this point, you could just roll back the files and everything should be back to the way it was. Once you move beyond this point, the only way to revert your website will be to delete the whole site and restore the backups you made earlier of your site's files and database.
Follow the prompts to upgrade the database. Be prepared as you may need to upgrade some of the plugins as well or make some upgrades to your web server and/or database environment.
Once you have everything running again, it will be time to upgrade to Moodle 3.3.
Upgrading to Moodle 3.3
Have you upgraded to Moodle 2.7 yet? If not, go back and complete that step first. Don't forget to make sure your web server meets the hardware requirements for Moodle 3.3.
Make sure your server meets the software requirements for Moodle 3.3 in order to successfully complete the upgrade from Moodle 2.7.
Next, upgrade Moodle from 2.7 to 3.3:
# Enable version tracking so that it is easier to upgrade Moodle in the future.
git branch --track MOODLE_33_STABLE origin/MOODLE_33_STABLE
# Upgrade Moodle to version 3.3.
git checkout MOODLE_33_STABLE
As you did before for Moodle 2.7, Login to your website as an administrator. You should see prompts that your database is about to be upgraded. If not, go to the Notifications page under Site Administration. Follow the prompts again to upgrade the database. As before, be prepared as you may need to upgrade more plugins and themes, and will likely need to make some upgrades to your web server and/or database environment.
That's it. If you followed the above instructions, your Moodle 2.5 site should now be upgraded to Moodle 3.3. To get the most out of your upgraded site, be sure to at least read the New Features page for each version of Moodle from 2.6 to 3.3.
To upgrade your site to newer bug/security release of Moodle 3.3, you will need to repeat some of the instructions. Essentially it will involve:
Backing up your site files (moodle and moodledata) and database.
Using the "git pull" command from within your Moodle folder.
Logging in as an administrator and following the upgrade prompts from the Site Administration > Notification page.
Verifying that everything on your site still work as expected.
Bug and security fixes come out every week but are only officially release every 2 months.
Hope you find this information useful.
Best regards,
Michael Milette
Per the upgrade documentation for 3.3 it says "You can only upgrade to Moodle 3.3 from Moodle 2.7 or later." https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Upgrading
So you must first do an upgrade to v2.7 before you can do an upgrade to v3.3
Also note in the v2.7 upgrade documentation it says "You can only upgrade to Moodle 2.7 from Moodle 2.2 or later." https://docs.moodle.org/27/en/Upgrading
Personally I have found less problems when I do upgrades in smaller jumps. So in your case 2.5 to 2.7.20 is a requirement. In theory you could then go from 2.7.20 all the way to 3.3 but you may want to consider 2.7.20 > 3.0.10 then 3.0.10 > 3.3
I can say that I have actually upgraded Moodle 2.3, and Moodle 2.5 successfully to 3.x, though not 3.3 specifically.
That being said, you have to also take the following considerations:
Are you up to the minimal PHP version? (5.6.something)
Do you have the new modules required by 3.x version (3.3 added a few I think)
Are your modules ready for 3.x?
If you aren't sure of any of these, I would go grab a Vagrant/VirtualBox/Docker setup of Moodle, stage your current site (i.e. install it with the same software you have installed on your production server), and upgrade it locally to ensure everything goes as planned.
First you backed up before any moodle 2.5 upgrade.
Then download new moodle 3.3
After then unzip folder
go to xampp->htdocs->your project
paste and override new folder
Copy your old config.php file back to the new Moodle directory
Sometimes, the environment may cause issues, sometimes the Moodle versions. I have faced both. But managed to upgrade. Last time for upgrade to 3.9.2 installed the old version to local server for reference and did a clean install on the cloud. I have upgraded Moodle 2.x to 3.2 for a couple of institutions. Please feel free to contact if needed.
Few steps to consider in this
Take backup of Moodle app, Moodledata and DataBase
You have to follow the upgrade process twice
First you need to upgrade from moodle 2.5 to moodle 3.0
Now you can upgrade you new moodle 3.0 to moodle 3.3
I am new to DNN CMS , I have installed the latest version 7.2 but on installation steps
on step 2 while the product is being installed, it keeps loading but no progress.
I opened the firebug and noticed that there are javascript errors [Json parse error].
As below image shows:
Any idea/solution will be appreciated.
the latest version of DNN is 7.3.2 abd you probably should be using that one. Also make sure that the server meets the DNN requirements and that your browser supports javascript
How do i upgrade osCommerce v2.2 to v2.3.1? Is there a upgrade script available for that?
Do I have to upgrade it to v2.3.0 before upgrading to v2.3.1?
Download and unzip the latest version of osCommerce v2.3.1. Inside the folder you will find an upgrade_guide.pdf - open it. On the very first page, it tells you how to go about upgrading.
On page 2 you'll see a reddish shaded box and it says the following:
This upgrade guide only provides the minimum required changes in the form of security updates and bug fixes. These changes will not upgrade your store to a complete v2.3 version. Please continue to use v2.2 add-ons and do not install v2.3 optimized add-ons as the may not function with your installation. If you wish to upgrade to a full v2.3 version, perform only (SQL) Database Changes and use the database with a new v2.3 installation.
