4    
5     <p>
6     When designing <a href="new_directory_layout.html">New Directory Layout</a>
7     special care has been taken to enable migration from docman v1.x as easy
8     as possible. However, you will need to move and edit some files, but most
9 dpavlin 1.2 of your existing directory will be left intact (and if fact, it will
10 dpavlin 1.1 become
11     <a href="new_directory_layout.html#repository">repository directory</a>,
12     so you will have to remove it from your web server's scope).
13     </p>
14    
15 dpavlin 1.3 <h3>Upgrade existing repository</h3>
16    
17     <p>If your currnet (v1.x) repository is called <tt>/home/httpd/html</tt> and
18     new one is <tt>/home/httpd/repository</tt> you would have to do following:
19     <small>(this assumes that you are going to use virtual hosts to host new
20     repository. If you would rather user path to <tt>docman.php</tt> script
21     path to separate installations <a href="#upgrade_path">look below</a>)</small>
22     <ul>
23    
24     <li>move old repository out of web server scope
25     <pre>
26     mv /home/httpd/html /home/httpd/repository
27     </pre>
28    
29     <li>create new web server exported directory and install docman it it
30     <small>(if you keep name <tt>html</tt> you won't need to change
31     Apache <tt>httpd.conf</tt>)</small>
32     <pre>
33     mkdir /home/httpd/html
34     ln -s /home/httpd/docman2/docman.php /home/httpd/html/index.php
35     ln -s /home/httpd/docman2/html/docman.css /home/httpd/html/docman.css
36     </pre>
37     You might want to add <tt>index.php</tt> to your Apache
38     DirectoryIndex instead of existings <tt>.index.php</tt>.
39    
40     <li>move files to new realm locations
41     <pre>
42     mv /home/httpd/html/.docman.conf \
43     /home/httpd/docman2/realm/http_virtual_host.conf
44     </pre>
45    
46     <li>move htusers file
47     <pre>
48     mv /home/httpd/html/.htusers \
49     /home/httpd/docman2/realm/http_virtual_host.htusers
50     </pre>
51    
52     <li>move include_php file
53     (<small><i>optionally</i> if you are using one</small>)
54     <pre>
55     mv /home/httpd/html/.tree.php \
56     /home/httpd/docman2/realm/http_virtual_host.tree.php
57     </pre>
58    
59     <li>create trustee file
60     (<small><i>optionally</i>, also read <a href="trustee.html">trustee
61     documentation</a></small>)
62     <pre>
63     cp /home/httpd/docman2/realm/localhost.trustee \
64     /home/httpd/docman2/realm/http_virtual_host.trustee
65     vi /home/httpd/docman2/realm/http_virtual_host.trustee
66     </pre>
67     </ul>

75 dpavlin 1.1 <A name="docman_conf">
76     <h3>master configuration file</h3>
77    
78     <p>New in docman version 2 is master configuration file (
79     <a href="install.html#docman_conf">see installation instructions</a>)
80     which basically sets just <tt>$gblIncDir</tt> which is root directory
81     of your docman installation.
82     </p>
83     <p>This file is by default located at <tt>/etc/docman.conf</tt> and you
84 dpavlin 1.2 can add configuration options to it which you want to use on <b>all docman
85     installations</b> on that particular machine.
86 dpavlin 1.1 </p>
87    
88     <big>FIX</big>
89    
90     <p>
91     For now, you will have to examine
92     <a href="new_directory_layout.html">New Directory Layout</a> and
93     <a href="install.html">Installation instructions</a> because this
94     part hasn't been completed yet.
95     </p>
96    
97     <a name="cvs">
98     <h2>To latest version from CVS</h2>
99    
100     New preferred way to upgrade is to use CVS checkout from repository
101     at <tt>cvs.linux.hr</tt>. This will <b>not</b> overwrite your realm
102     files, but you should checkout only stable versions (which has tag
103     in form <tt>v[major]_[minor]</tt> if current stable docman is
104 dpavlin 1.2 <tt>docman-major.minor.tar.gz</tt>) if you don't feel adventurous.

106     <h3>First time check-out</h3>
107    
108     <pre>
109     $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linux.hr:/cvsroot login
110     password: [just enter]
111     $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linux.hr:/cvsroot co -r2.x docman2
112     </pre>
113    
114 dpavlin 1.2 <h3>If you already have check-out from CVS</h3>
115 dpavlin 1.1
116     <pre>
117     $ cd /home/httpd/docman2
118     $ cvs update -r2.x
119     </pre>
