RC5 release soon! Tester Wanted!

[Zothos]

Then just wait a bit. RC5 is released soon and it will be based on the current main trunk.
-> http://www.isp-control.net/ispcp_svn/trunk/

Vacancys changes will be in rc6 not in rc5, so your save

[aseques]

I'm so eager to deploy it
I'm not scared to upgrade usually, but working with subversion you always have mid-time releases that are neither upgradable without a lot of manual tunning nor safe cause of the old version bugs ...
I'll do a test install by the way, so I tell about the problems if any

[ergo]

ok is there any howto on performing an update ?

do i download latest nightly and perform operations from
http://www.isp-control.net/documentation...upgrade/rc

also is there a list of things that i should back up ? directories, db's etc ?

[gOOvER]

Use the nightly Updatescript.

[ergo]

this thing ?
http://www.isp-control.net/documentation...atenightly

is there something special i should be aware of ? ;-)

[gOOvER]

You should have an RC5 Trunk, make some Backups and use the second one 'Automated Version v0.03'

[ergo]

hmm.. doesnt the automated script do backups for me ?
also what do you mean by i must have an rc5 trunk ? doesnt the script download the latest trunk ?

[ergo]

also doing:
mysql -uroot ispcp , logs me into mysql
but
mysql -uroot -pMYPASS ispcp (im using the password from ispcp.conf variable) - doesnt
the script requires me to set that password, i wouldnt want to have my DB killed.

I would be more than happy to upgrade now, but since im a linux noob until i have some doubts i will kill my server, in get response here what should i do - ill stay away from upgrading. See we could really use a freenode irc channel for that...

[gOOvER]

Use your mysql root password

[ergo]

but i dont know the password...
i tried using this one:
from ispcp.conf:

DATABASE_TYPE = mysql
DATABASE_HOST = localhost
DATABASE_NAME = ispcp
DATABASE_PASSWORD = MYLONGPASSWORD
DATABASE_USER = root

DATABASE_DIR = /var/lib/mysql

CMD_MYSQLDUMP = /usr/bin/mysqldump

DATABASE_UTF8 = yes

but it doesnt seem to work from commandline.

i tried doing mysql -uroot -pMYPASS ispcp - and i get access denied
but: mysql -uroot ispcp - works just fine
(when i run those commands as root)
