How to do the upgrade?
I’m just worried about problem after upgarde.
Is there any step by step tutorial to do this 100% safe?
Thanks a lot！
Hi @mic,
What is your environment? Is it a server? A local installation? Windows or Linux?
First thing to do is backup your db and documents folder.
Then you can either upgrade gradually 16.0.3 → 17.0.4 ->18.05 ->19.0.0
or directly from 16.03 → 19.0.0
To be safe keep your PHP version to 7.4

I’m using ubuntu server
PHP 7.1.17
mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.7.22,
Server version: Apache/2.4.27 (Ubuntu)
Server built: 2018-06-07T20:53:23
I dare not to upgrade…still hesitating…
the steps provided are very clear and straightforward but for some reason in my case not working. I’m pretty sure i do not do something but i do not understand what - it always point to update to the same version i already have.
Is related to file and folders i have but i do not see where it could be - maybe you could help me.
So update from 16.0.3 to 19.0.3 - unzip + copy all folders to main folder where
my old version is located.
When run mydolibar/install “Latest version upgrade: 16.0.3 - Version program: 16.0.3” no 19.0.3
Thanks in advance
Hi pledrag,
everytime in the past, when i got the same version to upgrade, my fault was all the time that i did not use the correct folder, where i unzipped the update, take some time to find the correct folder of your running dolibarr.
