Upgrading Horde on CentOS 5.2

Taking Horde installations from 3.1.x to 3.2x


 Upgrading from 3.1.x


    Your system may need different directory settings.
    I assume you have full root access to your server.



mkdir /zone
mkdir /zone/horde.upgrade
cd /zone/horde.upgrade
wget ftp://ftp.horde.org/pub/horde/horde-3.2.1.tar.gz
gunzip horde-3.2.1.tar.gz
tar -xf horde-3.2.1.tar -C .
mv horde-3.2.1 /var/www/html/

cd /var/www/html/horde-3.2.1/config
for foo in *.dist; do cp $foo `basename $foo .dist`; done
chown -R apache.apache /var/www/html/horde-3.2.1

MAKE COPIES

cd /zone/horde.upgrade
rsync -auvtP /var/lib/mysql/horde /zone/horde.upgrade


    Goto the installation http://yoursite.whatever/horde-3.2.1
    You will only have horde so set that up.
    Use the settings for the existing Horde mysql database
    Save
    Run the upgrade sql script (putty into your server)
     mysql -uroot horde -ppassword < /var/www/html/horde-3.2.1/scripts/upgrades/3.1_to_3.2.mysql.sql 
    Try and logon to this copy of horde

The only issue I had with logging in was to make sure the config/conf.php pointed at this new installation. $conf['cookie']['path'] = '/horde-3.2.1';

Once I knew I could login I copied all the other module over from horde to horde-3.2.1
I use rsync to preserver dates.
<code>rsync -auvtP /var/www/html/horde/imp /var/www/html/horde-3.2.1/

for i in forwards mottle vacation agora gollem kronolith nag rakim volos ansel ingo nic chora jeta occam thor whups hermes jonah trean wicked mimp passwd sam turba wps_sober ducttape klutz mnemo swoosh       
do 
  rsync -auvtP /var/www/html/horde/$i /var/www/html/horde-3.2.1/
done
<code>
Now run all the patches from horde to upgrade the various modules.
