Re: Upgrading from 1.0 to… well… anything
Ahh, thanks Anton. That's the critical piece of information I was
missing: I didn't realise easy_install was not an RB but a Python
tool. I think, Christian, I may have given you the wrong impression as
to how serious the problem is.
So, it's all going significantly better now: I've upgraded RB to 1.6.1
(successfully, I think), and the install package did, indeed, give me
an rb-site tool with which I then attempted to update my site.
Unfortunately, I got this back:

My site seems to still be up and running so nothing too disastrous

Your steps will be a little different because you are using
easy_install. And you might not have the missing table issue I had.
easy_install is generally easy to get:
Red Hat-based: yum install python-setuptools
Debian-based: apt-get install python-setuptools
Considering how old 1.0 is, the OS could be EOL'd, you might want to
start on a new server. If you don't have spare servers/VMs, at least
do the testing in a VM on your workstation. I would dump the database
and restore it to a test database. And copy the site files to a test
location. Then test doing upgrades of the test DB and files until you
get it right. Then shutdown the real site, do a backup, then upgrade.

Best way to back up the database is by doing an SQL dump. That varies
depending on whether you're using MySQL, PostreSQL, etc. It won't be in our
site directory unless you're using SQLite (which we don't recommend).- Hide

Re: Upgrading from 1.0 to… well… anything
Ok, so I made the cardinal sin of not reading everything you sent. I
guess what I need to know is whether that error looks like migrating
this site is the best option or whether to go with generating a new
site and linking it to the old database.
Thanks again for everyone's help.

I'm not sure about the error. settings_local.py should tell you what DB you are using. I think a new site is the best way to go. By site I mean the directory structure and files created by 'rb-site install'. The directory structure and files of an old SVN pull are totally different than a new easy_install/rb-site created site. After creating the new site you point local settings at the old database (or better, a copy of the old database), and run 'rb-site upgrade' to evolve the database. You also need to copy any persistent data stored in the file system, from the old site to the new site, which as far as I know is only the stuff in htdocs/media/uploaded. -Anton -- Want to help the Review Board project?

Hi, What version exactly is this? Almost sounds like a pre-1.0. Before you do anything, back up the site directory and database. Things could get hairy.

Sounds great, unfortunately first I need to get me an rb-site tool :) I've scoured the machine where RB is installed and the closest I have is an rb-site.txt describing it's use.
