Roundcube upgrade
« on: December 15, 2011, 03:55:47 PM »
Hello,
I would like to upgrade roundcube to the latest version but i wonder if it will keep my messages and folders or if all the messages and folders will be deleted ?
Is there any possibility to make a backup of my messages and folder ?
Thank you very much

RoundCube doesn't store email (there stored on a IMAP server) so you wont loses any email or folder when upgrading. Just remember to take a backup of your RoundCube database before you start the upgrade.

From 0.1.x ? I haven't used that version, I did an upgrade from 0.7.2

Read the upgrading file, I used ./bin/installto.sh and worked like a charm.

But first when I started, first made some backup.

cp -pR ./<source to ./<dest> (the complete roundcube tree)
mysldump -u username -p password databasename > ./outputname.sql (mysql db backup)

Now you can run the installto.sh shell script and when that is done check if
everything is working and you properly need to update some plugins.

Hi, sorry for dumping topic.

Could you quick guide me for upgrading from 0.1.x to latest version?

I'm using IMAP.

- thank you
0.1.x!?! Its definitely time for an upgrade but it should work just like a normal upgrade just follow the guide: http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Howto_Upgrade Since your upgrading from such a old version you don't need to worry about plugins but if you made a core code modifications they will disappear.
