What is the best way to upgrade to openca-9.2?
Make a database backup, read the FAQ how to prepare your database, install 0.9.2 (including the new configuration) and import the backuped database.
Do I need to backup my certificates and then import them?
Yes.
I guess I don't need to run through the initialization process again.
Correct.
Can you run two versions at the same time?
Yes, if you don't use SCEP.
Any bad experiences with the upgrade?
I don't try it until now.
I would also help to mention in the documentation that you need to run openca_start to make it work. What does that script do?
First openca_start is already part of the documentation. Second it starts the XML cache daemon and the OpenCA server itself. "ps -efa" should give an idea of the running daemons.
install-online never worked for me, I allways had to use install-ext.
This is really funny and I'm totally confused because install-ext is only a reference to install-online. See the global makefile.
DBI with db_type=MySQL didn't work and only setting DB in the config.xml is working, it complains about unknown db type.
Many thanks in advance
Where did you use db_type=...? You can specify the configuration in config.xml before you run configure_etc.sh or you can specify it in etc/database/DBI.conf. It is no longer an option for ./configure. The configure options are the options which are needed for the installation only. There is only one problematical option which is not solved until now - --with-hierarchy-level. If we move this to config.xml then you can run ./configure without any options. Perhaps I do this change over the weekend. This would also result in fully usable RPMs and DEBs. Perhaps this is the most important argument.
