Hi everyone,

Just some clarification needed
My job currently has outdated trac v1.0 installed.
Trying to find the correct path to upgrade to 1.6 now.

Can i go from 1.0 - 1.6 or do I need to do 1.0 - 1.2 then 1.2 - 1.4 etc.


Adding a few of the questions you mailed me directly with.

> It seems our Trac originally ( way before my time) was installed using 
Bitnami who seem to no longer support trac. So wanted to see any 
recommendations you might have in terms of proceeding to try and upgrade 
Trac as it all seems to be bundled into a Bitnami installation.

The main thing you need from the old installation is the environment 
directory. It is described here:
https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracEnvironment

You can copy it directly or use the tooling:

> Also where would I see installed plugins to remove them in this case as 
needed for various versions? I'm planning to go from 1.0.9 to 1.2 first 
just as i'm new to this and then eventually to 1.6.

Plugins can be viewed on the /admin/plugins page, the /about page, or in 
the environment plugins directory (provided you don't have a more complex 
installation with a shared plugins directory.

I would create a fresh install, copy over the environment, and run the 
upgrade steps.

Be sure to read: https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracUpgrade

> - follow the upgrade guide even though it was installed as a bitnami 
stack? 

Yes, for the most part it shouldn't matter that the old installation was 
Bitnami.

I haven't tried it, but Turnkey Linux appears to be similar to the Bitnami 
appliance, so you may find that useful:
