This document explains how to upgrade H-Sphere from 2.3.1 Patch 9, any of 2.3.2 versions,
or earlier 2.4 betas to 2.4 Beta 6. If your H-Sphere is lower than 2.3.1 Patch 9, please
update to this version first.
IMPORTANT:
This version is not yet stable and should not be installed on production servers or systems
with over 1000 accounts.
Don't forget to upgrade Winbox to 2.4 beta 6 to ensure correct performance
of Windows-based hosting.
The upgrade won't work without a valid H-Sphere license. Please check if you have enough licenses to
cover all accounts in the system.
Procedure
- Make sure to have H-Sphere 2.3.1 Patch 9 or an earlier 2.4 beta installed:
# cat ~cpanel/shiva/psoft_config/hsphere.properties | grep HS_VERSION
- Download 2.4 Beta 6 installation package from the Positive Software site:
Make sure the target directory doesn't contain any other U24.0b6 file!
- Stop H-Sphere using one of the following commands:
Linux:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpdcp stop
FreeBSD:
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apachecp.sh stop
- Run the update script by typing:
sh ./U24.0b6
Note: The help shows. Choose what you want to update and follow the help.
- To update H-Sphere, type:
# install
Important! Do not update Site Studio
or WebShell without updating H-Sphere control panel.
- To update your SiteStudio to 1.6 RC3:
1) Stop Imaker by running:
kill -9 `ps -axw|grep imaker.sh |grep -v grep|awk '{print $1}'`
kill -9 `ps -axw|grep ImageMaker|grep -v grep|awk '{print $1}'`
2) Run update script:
# ss
3) Start ImageMaker:
/hsphere/shared/SiteStudio/imaker.sh >& /hsphere/shared/SiteStudio/var/error_log 2>&1 &
- H-Sphere 2.4 will use WebShell4 by default. To use WebShell3, set in hsphere.properties:
WEBSHELL=3
For correct performance of WebShell4, you must have
1.3.29 apache update.
- If your system database holds data in international encoding format,
update it to UTF-8.
- Update your Winbox to 2.4 beta 6.
- Start H-Sphere CP using one of the following commands:
Linux:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpdcp start
FreeBSD:
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apachecp.sh start
- Check the version of H-Sphere using the following command:
# cat ~cpanel/shiva/psoft_config/hsphere.properties | grep HS_VERSION
You will see a line similar to this:
Where:
2.4.0 is the version of H-Sphere,
418 is H-Sphere build,
You can have a later build of version 2.4.0.
