Supported update

Please update to the latest release of 6.20.* before starting the update to 6.22.

Prerequisites

  • 6.20.7 or later
  • if you have custom packages done by Open-Xchange, please discuss with your Open-Xchange contact when these packages are available for 6.22. Do not attempt the update earlier
  • If you have built custom packages yourself which install config files in the OX config tree, please check the page PACKAGING CHANGES [TODO]
  • if you have custom plugins written by yourself which depend on OX OSGI bundles, check THIS PAGE [TODO] for changes you might need to do.
  • Custom packages built for 6.20.7 or earlier might not work with 6.22.

Change repositories

  • new repos

Perform the update

  • dry-run

Install desired languages

  • it is now possible to uninstall german and french, as these languages have been split into separate packages. If you want to offer german and/or french to your customers as language option, you need to install the packages after the update.

System setup

  • chkonfig / insserv

Restart Open-Xchange

  • use the new startup script
  • it will stop the 2 former processes -groupware and -admin
  • check that there's really only one process left
