Upgrading from 2.0b4 to 2.0.1

Hi, Does anybody have any advice on upgrading from 2.0b4 to 2.0.1? - Were there database schema changes? - Can I simply patch the changed files, or is a full re-install recommended? - Any gotchas I should be aware of... Thanks in advance, Rob.

I would like to know the same for upgrading from beta6. I notice there arent any upgrade instructions for people upgrading from the beta. - Sandip -- Sandip Bhattacharya * Puroga Technologies * sandip@puroga.com Work: http://www.puroga.com * Home/Blog: http://www.sandipb.net/blog PGP/GPG Signature: 51A4 6C57 4BC6 8C82 6A65 AE78 B1A1 2280 A129 0FF3

I have done this a few times. Upgraded from 2.0 beta 2 to 2.0 beta 4 and then to 2.0.1. I have OTRS installed in /usr/share running on Debian. Here is the process I used to do the upgrades. 1. Untar the 2.0.1 tar ball into /usr/share. 2. Run otrs/scripts/DBUpdate-to-2.0.mysql.sql 1. mysql -f -u root -p otrs < /usr/share/otrs/scripts/DBUpdate-to-2.0.mysql.sql 2. I used the -f to display errors but ignore them. This way you ignore errors about creating tables that already exist. 3. Run otrs/bin/SetPermissions.sh 4. I had to make a few permission adjustments after this but do not remember what I had to change at the moment. The only issue I have at the moment is a problem with merging tickets. Hope this helps.
