View source for AppSuite:Upgrade from 6.22 for SLES11

= Update of Open-Xchange Server v6.22 to OX App Suite 7.0 on SLES 11. =
This example describes updating an OX 6 Server installation to OX App Suite 7.

= Supported update path =
Updates from an OX6 installation to App Suite are only possible from 6.22 to 7.0. If you have an earlier version of Open-Xchange Server 6 installed, you have toupdate to the latest release of v6.22 before attempting an update to OX App Suite 7. See [[Open-Xchange_620_622_Update_Guide_for_SLES11|Open-Xchange 6.20 to 6.22 Update Guide for SLES 11]] for instructions regarding that update.

= Requirements =
* An Open-Xchange Server installation v6.22.0 or later. This update guide is valid for a system installed through our [[Open-Xchange_Installation_Guide_for_SLES11_622|Download and Installation Guide for SLES 11]]
* If you have custom packages done by Open-Xchange, please discuss with your Open-Xchange contact when these packages are available for OX App Suite 7. Do not attempt the update earlier.
* Custom packages built for 6.22.1 or earlier might not work with OX App Suite 7.0.
* As for every update we strongly recommend that you make a backup of your system(s) before you proceed.

= Update Open-Xchange Repositories =
First, you need to add the current repositories to your zypper configuration to access the App Suite packages.

To do so, start with listing your existing repositories.

<code>
 $ zypper lr
</code>

Then, remove your configured Open-Xchange repositories. Assuming they are called <code>ox</code> and <code>ox-updates</code>, the commands would be:

<code>
 $ zypper rr ox
 $ zypper rr ox-updates
</code>

Finally, add the new Open-Xchange repositories for SLES11:

 $ zypper ar http://software.open-xchange.com/products/appsuite/stable/appsuiteui/SLES11/ appsuite-frontend 
 $ zypper ar http://software.open-xchange.com/products/appsuite/stable/backend/SLES11/ ox-backend


= Updating repositories and update packages =
Reload the package index:

 $ zypper ref

Download and update all installed Open-Xchange packages: 

 $ zypper dup -r ox-backend -r appsuiteui

One configuration setting is to be made manually:

 # vi /opt/open-xchange/etc/cluster.properties
 com.openexchange.cluster.name=oxcluster

= Restart Open-Xchange =

To restart Open-Xchange Server after the update, run

 $ rcopen-xchange restart

You might  want to check with

 $ ps aux | grep open-xchange

that there is exactly one newly spawned process running Open-Xchange Server.

Now the backend has been upgraded to 7.0.x.  The v6.22 frontend might still work with this new backend but is *NOT*' supported up to version 6.22.1. The next version 6.22.2 is planned to be fully compatible with the 7.0.2 backend. Upon the first connection after the backend update, you will ge the message <code>Error: updating database, try later</code>. The second try should succeed.

= Add the App Suite UI =

 # zypper install open-xchange-appsuite open-xchange-appsuite-backend open-xchange-appsuite-manifest

It them remains to adjust Apache's <code>ox.conf</code> as well as <code>proxy_ajp.conf</code>.

Basically you need to merge the OX6 and App Suite versions of those files. For the Apache config file <code>/etc/apache2/conf.d/ox.conf</code>, replace the element <code><Directory /srv/www/htdocs> ... </Directory></code> with the following:

        <Directory /srv/www/htdocs>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride None
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
                RedirectMatch ^/$ /appsuite/
        </Directory>
  
        <Directory /srv/www/htdocs/appsuite>
                Options None +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
                AllowOverride Indexes FileInfo
        </Directory>
 
        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
 
        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
        # alert, emerg.
        LogLevel warn
 
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

For the <code>/etc/apache2/conf.d/proxy_ajp.conf</code>, you need to  add an element before the element <code><Proxy /ajax> ...  </Proxy></code>:

    # OX AppSuite frontend
    <Proxy /appsuite/api>
        ProxyPass balancer://oxcluster/ajax
    </Proxy>

Full sample versions of those files are given in the following.

 <VirtualHost *:80>

                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
                RedirectMatch ^/$ /appsuite/
        </Directory>
  
        <Directory /srv/www/htdocs/appsuite>
                Options None +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

After this, stop and start the apache2 and open-xchange services. Then you should be able to use the App Suite UI.

= Remove the OX6 GUI =

This step is optional. You may just skip it and offer both GUIs, the OX6 GUI and the App Suite UI. This will only be supported after the 6.22.2 release! 

If you want to uninstall the OX6 GUI, this step consists of removing the OX6 GUI packages and and adjusting Apache's configuration.

The packages to be removed can be identified by their version number in the output of <code>rpm -qa | grep open-x</code>. It will probably boil down to uninstall everything which starts with <code>open-xchange-gui</code>, as the names of the App Suite UI packages start with <code>open-xchange-appsuite</code>.

 # zypper remove open-xchange-gui*

Then adjust the <code>/etc/apache2/conf.d/ox.conf</code> file to remove obsolete stuff which was required for the OX6 GUI, but is not required by the App Suite. To do so, you may consult the [[AppSuite:Open-Xchange_Installation_Guide_for_SLES11|Installation Guide for OX App Suite]] to learn which sections of the file are required for an App Suite UI.

The file <code>/etc/apache2/conf.d/proxy_ajp.conf</code> will not require adjustments; the settings for App Suite are a superset of the settings of the OX6 GUI.

= Leftover configuration files and runtime data =

After the update you may see leftover configuration files and runtime data below <code>/opt/open-xchange/etc</code> It is safe to remove all files ending in .rpmsave or .rpmnew once you are confident that your configuration is working after the update.
