These are directions for upgrading iHRIS Manage from version 3.1 under Ubuntu.

First Steps

Get The Source Code

You can either get the released or the development code. Suppose that [base_path] is the directory which contains i2ce, common, manage etc.

Backup Database

We should back up the database. Go into phpmyadmin, select your database, click on operations, and copy the database to a new name [database_name].

Preparing the Site

Copy the existing site directory over to a new directory and update the config.values.php to:

  • set the $i2ce_site_database to [database_name], the name of the new database
  • set $i2ce_site_i2ce_path to [base_path]/i2ce, the directory where the new version of I2CE is located
