Hi,
first of all make BACKUP! i startet with version 15, i think it should work with 12 as well.

  1. start Putty or login ubuntu with terminal or similar

  2. cd /tmp/ && wget https ://sourceforge.net/projects/dolibarr/files/Dolibarr%20ERP-CRM/17.0.2/dolibarr-17.0.2.zip

  3. unzip dolibarr-17.0.2.zip && rm /tmp/dolibarr-17.0.2.zip

  4. Sudo -s

  5. cd /var/www/dolibarr/documents/

  6. mv install.lock install.bak

  7. cp -r /tmp/dolibarr-17.0.2* /var/www/dolibarr

  8. rm -r /tmp/dolibarr-17.0.2

  9. start dolibarr with install

  10. mv install.bak install.lock

Make sure you use your path for the installation e.g /var/www/dolibarr is th path i am using.
Maybe you need to check point 7, i am not sure if the copy works, you need to copy the content of the folder not the folder!
Works for me like charm.
