Thanks.

That would work if there were no package dependencies.

Ubuntu 16.04 has php7 while OC 8.2 needs php5. So I'm stuck.

There is a private repo from Ondrej to install php5.6 in Ubuntu 16.04, but it still does not work (php5.6 != php5).

This is extremely time consuming, so I have to be pragmatic.

Now I'm just trying to install a recent version of OC and then copy the files from the old installation to the new installation in the server.

It seems the developers haven't considered the possibility of a release upgrade in Ubuntu.

Hi!

TL;DR
https://doc.owncloud.org/server/9.0/admin_manual/maintenance/package_upgrade.html#upgrading-across-skipped-releases



Please start with getting
- the version before dist upgrade:
grep version /var/www/owncloud/config/config.php
- our current version:
#grep VersionString /var/www/owncloud/version.php

Now you need to do a subsequent migration through the recent release of
the version you had before and the recent major releases listed at the
page https://owncloud.org/changelog/
e.g. for v8.1.3  and v9.0.4
it is 8.1.3-> 8.1.9->8.2.7->9.0.4

It can be done either by
- switching repos. There are links to repos at the changelog page. Don't
forget to run occ upgrade after installing each version from the repo
- manually per instructions at
https://doc.owncloud.org/server/9.0/admin_manual/maintenance/manual_upgrade.html

Hi,

Yesterday I upgraded my server to Ubuntu 16.04.1 and now I can't
upgrade ownCloud:

$ sudo -u www-data /var/www/owncloud/occ upgrade
(...)
Exception: Updates between multiple major versions and downgrades are
unsupported.
(...)

How can I solve this?

The distro dependency check does not allow the installation of an
older version of ownCloud. On the other hand, ownCloud does not
upgrade to the newer version.

There must be a solution?

Thanks.
