RE: [Phpgroupware-users] Help with CVS installation

[Scott A. Henderson]

Thanks for the help, this has been a thorn in my side, everyone that is
getting on this system likes it and now they are bugging me to get the kinks
worked out.

One last question related to this issue.

If I was scripting the update to the latest version of the .9.14-branch the
script would look like this.  I assume this would keep me up to date with
all patches on this branch of the tree. Does this mean I will be on the
latest development version?

#!/bin/sh
# update the phpgroupware to the latest version of 
# the .9.14-branch tree.

# Backup the existing version
echo -ne "Backup the existing version..."
mv phpgroupware phpgroupware.old
echo "<ok>

# Update 
cd phpgroupware
cvs -z3 update -dP
echo Update complete

# Restore the header file and the user files
echo -ne "Restore the header file and user files..."
mv ../phpgroupware.old/header.inc.php .
mv ../phpgroupware.old/files .
echo "<ok>"

To simplify things, I would suggest that if you cvs co using '-r
Version-0_9_14-branch' instead of '-r Version-0_9_14-branch-RC2' you will
only need to issue 'cvs -z3 update -dP' to get a complete update of the
entire phpGW system.

The -RC1, -RC2 are considered to be snapshots at the time when we built
the RC releases.  The Version-0_9_14-branch is the running branch where we
are constantly making fixes.  The .14 version should never really need any
updates to either the header or the configuration settings, but, I would
suggest every once in a while to go into the setup/configuration and look
at Step 3 - Manage Languages and reinstall your language files, if you
have not already made custom entries or added any new phrases.

Hope this helps,
