Hi Axel

Have you gone to /setup/setup.php
Logged in
ILIAS should tell you "Your database needs an update"
From there you can update.

Best regards,

Jesper

Hi Jesper,

I will do this – but I dont understand for what reason?
Who can I see the hint or in which document is this coherence include.

The Setup-Tool say:
The database is uptodate in version 1368
And the Update-Tool say:
Please do not invoke this function unless it is explicitly stated in update or patch instructions.

Now I am unsettle what is to do.
Which version I need and where is the source for the update?
It was a first time installation in Version "ILIAS 3.10.6 2009-04-18 (Setup Version 2 Revision: 17651)"?

Please can you explain something more?

Now I have finished a clone of my live-system.
If the backup complete, I will test the update.

Or is it recommendable, make the update to ilias4 first?

Best regards from flensborg,
Axel

Hallo,

the results of the experiment were negativ.

The "Control Structure Tool" do nothing.
Then I found the "dbupdate.php" and the "dbupdate_02.php" in the sql-folder.

when start the script manual, I get this Error:

dbupdate.php
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /var/www/ilias3/setup/sql/dbupdate.php on line 6827

dbupdate_02.php
Fatal error: Call to a member function getStructure() on a non-object in /var/www/ilias3/setup/sql/dbupdate_02.php on line 3

Waths wrong

Hi Axel

You should not need to reload the control structure and you should definitely not do anything with the dbupdate_02.php. That will not help

I suggest you upgrade your ILIAS to 3.10.9 which is the latest version in the 3.10-branch. If things does not work here they will not work in ILIAS 4.0 either.

Upgrading to a newer major version should always be done from the latest major-1 version and in your case not directly from 3.10.6.

Does everything else in your installation work as expected? Do you run multiple clients or only a single default one?

- Jesper

Hi Jesper,

I use multiple clients - two testenvironments and one productive system
but in the testenviromment is no traffic.

Anny other funktions works fine.
I will tray the update to 3.10.9 at the clone on weekend.

thx,
Axel

I was thinking if your cron was connecting to the default client and not the one you want it to (?)

- Jesper

o.k. - the update to 3.10.9 was successful but the cronjob do not run.

The Database-Tool run with out errors but the database-version is the same?!
Database Version : 1368

same error in the ilias.log
[09-10-09 23:52:04] [unknown] Cron: Database not up to date. Aborting
[09-10-09 23:52:04] [unknown] Cron: Database not up to date. Aborting
[09-10-09 23:52:04] [unknown] Cron: Database not up to date. Aborting

what do you mean with "connecting to the default client" ?
I am new on ILIAS and I do not understand the error message.
The default client is one of the three configure clients.
The cronjob cant connect to all three databases.
But what means "up to date" - witch version is the right one - and how can i change it?

Please can you give me an little bit more background information?

thx,
Axel

now i update to ilias40
and now i have see the database-update from 1368 to 2897

it was the first time i have see this function
its new in "ILIAS 4.0.0 (Setup Version 2 Revision: 21711)" ?
in the old setup-tool was the message: Database OK



my problem is, that i cant update the database. after the update to 3.10.9 or i do not see the update-link in the setup-tool
"ILIAS 3.10.9 2009-08-20 (Setup Version 2 Revision: 17651).
before i use the "Control Structure tool" but there is no "database-update tool"

how can i fix the problem with the cronjob / database on ilias3.10.9?
where can i find the diff files for the Database or how can i patch the database from 1368 to x for run the cronjob ?
how can i update database with out the setup.php or how can i fix it?

so many questions.........
