Upgrade from 3.0.11 to 3.1.1

Hi everyone, We have been using OTRS for a couple of years now and we are currently using 3.0.11 as the newest version. OTRS 3.1.1 is now available however and I wanted to know if there are any special things I have to think of before upgrading? We are using OpenSUSE 11.2 as an OS, but I'm not an expert in Linux so I wanted to double-check before upgrading. I have upgraded the 3.0.X versions every time by running the following commands: rpm -Uvh otrs-3.0.11* otrs.RebuildConfig.pl otrs.DeleteCache.pl apache2 restart Can I use the same commands (otrs-3.1* instead of otrs-3.0.11* in the first line) for this upgrade from 3.0.11 to 3.1.1?

HI,
I have done a test upgrade myself following the instructions in the source
code "UPGRADING", I did not have a problem but also did not test all the
functionality.
I would suggest to try this on a copy of the database, just in case.
thanks,
mike

rpm –Uvh otrs-3.0.11*****
otrs.RebuildConfig.pl****

apache2 restart****

Can I use the same commands (otrs-3.1* instead of otrs-3.0.11* in the first line) for this upgrade from 3.0.11 to 3.1.1?****

Hi Erik Your steps are correct (it's the absolute minimum), but I think you should go trough it step by step as described here http://doc.otrs.org/3.1/en/html/upgrading.html (stop services, start upgrade, start services, tests) I recommend a fullbackup of your system before upgrading, better clone it first, test your upgrade and then start your upgrade Regards Florian Von: otrs-bounces@otrs.org [mailto:otrs-bounces@otrs.org] Im Auftrag von Erik van Ast Gesendet: Mittwoch, 15.
