Upgrading VisualReview

Sannie Kwakman edited this page Sep 10, 2015 · 7 revisions

To upgrade VisualReview, please follow these steps:

  1. Stop the currently running VisualReview server
  2. Make a backup copy of the database file and the screenshots directory configured in config.edn. The default database file is visualreview.db.mv.db
  3. Extract the new VisualReview version to a new directory
  4. Copy your previous config.edn file to the new directory
  5. If the screenshots directory is inside the directory of the previous version, move it to the new version's directory
  6. Move the database file from the old directory to the new one.
  7. Start the new VisualReview server version.
  8. Delete the directory containing the previous version of VisualReview.

During startup, the new VisualReview server might upgrade the database's data structure to accommodate the new version's features or to fix some bugs. If something goes wrong during this process, make sure you have access to your database backup to prevent data-loss.
