Hi everyone I need to upgrade harware as soon as possible. When I installed ISPConfig the first time I made a complete clone of the hard drive so in case something goes wrong I still have a complete installation. I have now added this drive to the server box and it boots up and runs with no problems. I also need to upgrade to the newest ISPConfig version... Because I am a very paranoid person I'm too afraid to update ISPConfig on my production server. So I figgured I would run the update on the clone I made... What would be the best course of action here? First I need to move all the new domains and websites to the clone server... I assume ISPConfig has some sort of import/restore system? Should I move all the sites first and then update? Or should I update the clone system to a new ISPConfig version first and then move everything over? How do you go about when installing new hardware and upgrading to a new ISPConfig server? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Regards Julian
No, you can not move the setup this way. I recommend that you make a new clone. The update of ISPConfig is really easy. 1) Make a backup of /root/ispconfig, /home/admispconfig and the ISPConfig mysql database. 2) Download the latest ispconfiig version and run the setup script. In case anything goes wrong, just srestore the backup from 1).
