Upgrade to CollabNet TeamForge 5.4 on a virtual machine

You can upgrade to CollabNet TeamForge 5.4 from a VMware installation of CollabNet TeamForge 5.3.

Note: To upgrade from any version earlier than 5.3 (including CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise 5.x or any version of SourceForge Enterprise Edition) first upgrade your site to CollabNet TeamForge 5.3 and start it up. Then follow these steps for upgrading to CollabNet TeamForge 5.4.
  1. On the computer where your TeamForge 5.3 site is running, open a command prompt and log onto the machine as an administrator.
  2. Download the TeamForge 5.4 upgrade package from http://www.collab.net/products/ctf/tryit.html and unzip it in the /tmp directory.
    • unzip updater-vmware-5_3-5_4.zip
  3. Back up your TeamForge 5.3 site. Use the instructions at Back up CollabNet TeamForge 5.3 data.
  4. Review the key configuration variables for your TeamForge 5.3 site. The configuration file is at /opt/collabnet/runtime/conf/runtime-options.conf. Note these key variables and their values:
    HOST_<host_name>
    DOMAIN_<host_name>
    SYSTEM_EMAIL
    ADMIN_EMAIL
    JAMES_POSTMASTER_EMAIL
    JAMES_GATEWAY_HOST
    JAMES_GATEWAY_PORT
  5. Run the upgrade utility.
    • cd updater-5_3-5_4
    • ./updater-5_3-5.4.sh
    The upgrade can take several minutes to complete, depending on system resources.
    Important: Answer Y when prompted to proceed with the installation, but answer N when prompted to start the TeamForge configuration tool.
