Upgrade Instructions

In progress

By definition, these instructions cannot provide comprehensive advice for all the situations you may encounter when upgrading source code forks, and they should be understand as a best-effort attempt at a generic recipe for working through any given upgrade, with pointers on known issues and "gotchas" mixed in.

In many cases, a systems administrator with relatively limited SSP-specific experience can successfully execute an upgrade. But again, because upgrading a source code fork almost always involves making decisions about what does and doesn't constitute a valid local change that should be carried forward into the upgraded source code, it may be necessary to involve a developer or technical staff already familiar with SSP internals.

The SSP team strongly recommends a multi-stage process for upgrading institutional SSP installations. Start by attempting the upgrade locally, even in the absence of a complete copy of UAT or production databases. Work out the obvious problems there, then move to your shared QA/Test/UAT/Dev environment and attempt a deployment. You'll usually want to refresh the database in that environment from a recent production backup, if possible, before attempting the deployment. Once everything has been tested successfully in that environment, you should have a very good idea of the exact steps you'll need to reproduce to execute the deployment in production.
