    Posted by mbonal on December 1, 2008 at 11:55

    What is the procedure to upgrade development to production? I have had pandroa 2.0 beta for months and want to upgrade it to production without losing any configuation or settings. What is the procedure?

    Code is public available on branches/pandora_2.0 directory, you can get it with Subversion client:

    svn co https://pandora.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pandora/branches/pandora_2.0

    Just copy new files over old files BUT be sure to backup everything (including database), just to be safe.

    Also, consider using enterprise version to keep up-to-date automatically your system:

    I’ve tried the vmware image for the 2.0 version. It seems great. But it just doesn’t upgrade from the built-in update manager.

    It tells me there’s an upgrade from 2008-11-11 08:04:07. I downloaded the vmware image from sourceforge that was from 2008-11-03 12:14:
    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=155200&package_id=290154

    When i click on update, it shows the update page with “updating…” in the middle and then after a short period, it shows the box saying that there’s an update available.

    The update manager is only available for Enterprise users, if you want to know how to become an Enterprise user, let me know!

    Cheers

    Is it free of charge and/or free as in freedom? If not, is there a project/fork/etc. working on that? And what is the difference, other than the update manager?

    Btw, i think the update manager should tell you why it fails. I can’t be the only one scratching my head and retrying thinking it was probably just temporarily down. It seems to be a great product otherwise, though.

    Hi,

    It’s not free of charge, but on the other hand you’ll have access to all the updates, bugfixes and features of the enterprise version.
    On the other it is OpenSource, the website of the project is: http://openupdatemanager.com/, it’s developed by us as well, and created for our products, pandora, babel and integria.

    The update fails because you’re not using a valid key (the key is provided by us), but you’re true we should try to be more descriptive in the error.

    Automatic Updates propagated by Open Update Manager are always “stable” code. Code on 2.0 repository are always stable. Update Manager not only distribute code, also add modification on Database, add new modules and other database stuff. Update Manager also migrate from versions. Update Manager do almost everything for you.

    Enterprise version has more features than OpenSource version, take a look at:

    http://pandorafms.com/index.php?sec=pandora&sec2=enterprise&lang=en

    2.1 version will come with more enterprise versions like remote inventory, a custom dashboard and other features.

    And the stable code is not available anywhere else than through the for-pay enterprise version?

    It’s a shame. I really liked this program. But since my needs are still basic, i’m not looking into buying it. Yet, at least.

    Of course it is available.
    You have the VMware image, you have the packages and you have the SVN (the branches/pandora_2.0)

    The vmware is stable code, the packages are stable code, and the svn (branches 2.0) is stable code as well (with some bugfixes)

    I forgot to answer this question:
    “How do i upgrade from the vmware image to the version that the update manager suggests?”

    You have to keep in mind that the Update Manager provides either bugfixes (you can have access to this using the SVN) and features for the enterprise version (you cannot have access to those).
    So if you want to be be updated with the latest code (stable, therefore, just bugfixes) of the 2.0, you have to use the SVN for that, take a look at this:
    http://sourceforge.net/svn/?group_id=155200
