Upgrading Ingo

Contact: ingo@lists.horde.org

1   General instructions

These are instructions to upgrade from earlier Ingo versions. Please backup your existing data before running any of the steps described below. You can't use the updated data with your old Ingo version anymore.

Upgrading Ingo is as easy as running:

pear upgrade -a -B horde/ingo

If you want to upgrade Ingo with all binary dependencies, you need to remove the -B flag. Please note that this might also try to install PHP extensions through PECL that might need further configuration or activation in your PHP configuration:

pear upgrade -a horde/ingo

If you want to upgrade to an alpha or beta version of Ingo, you need to tell the PEAR installer to prefer non-stable package versions. Please note that this might also install pre-release 3rd-party PEAR packages:

pear -d preferred_state=alpha upgrade -a horde/ingo

If you want to upgrade from an Ingo version prior to 2.0, please follow the instructions in INSTALL to install the most recent Ingo version using the PEAR installer.

After updating to a newer Ingo version, you always need to update configurations and database schemes. Log in as an administrator, go to Administration => Configuration and update anything that's highlighted as outdated.

2   Upgrading Ingo From 3.1.x To 3.2

2.1   API Changes

Added the 'newEmailFilter' API link. Takes one argument: 'email', the e-mail address to pre-populate into a new rule.

2.2   Backend Configuration (backends.php)

The Sieve driver now uses the 'enotify' extension by default. If using an old version of Sieve that only supports the deprecated 'notify' setting, set 'notify' to true in the sieve script parameters (see backends.php).

The Sieve driver now uses 'imap4flags' by default to set flags. If using an old version of Sieve that only supports the deprecated 'imapflags' setting, set 'imapflags' to true in the sieve script parameters (see backends.php).

2.3   Configuration Options (conf.php)

The following options have been removed (see Permissions section for replacement functionality):

$conf['storage']['maxblacklist']
$conf['storage']['maxwhitelist']

2.4   Permissions

Ingo permissions are now applied per backend. To upgrade existing permissions, an admin needs to run the following script:

bin/ingo-admin-upgrade --task=backend_perms

The following permissions have been added:

max_blacklist
max_forward
max_whitelist

The following permissions have been removed:

allow_rules (replacement: set max_rules permission to 0)

3   Upgrading Ingo From 3.0.x To 3.1.x

3.1   Backend Configuration (backends.php)

The 'script' and 'transport' settings of the backend configuration have been changed from strings to arrays, to allow different backends for different filter rules.

3.2   API Changes

The applyFilters() no longer returns a value.

4   Upgrading Ingo From 2.x To 3.x

4.1   Backend Configuration (backends.php)

The 'hordeauth' parameter and the 'password' and 'username' parameters have been removed. By default, the transport backend will use Horde authentication credentials to access. To set a different username and/or password, you should use the 'transport_auth' hook.

5   Upgrading Ingo From 1.x To 2.x

5.1   Configuration Options (conf.php)

The following configuration options have been removed:

usefolderapi

5.2   Sieve Backend

The port number for the timesieved daemon has been changed to the official Sieve port 4190 in the default configuration. If your timesieved daemon is still running on the former default port 2000, or any other port than 4190, you need to create a config/backends.local.php file with the following content:

<?php
$backends['sieve']['params']['port'] = 2000;
$backends['sivtest']['params']['port'] = 2000;

6   Upgrading Ingo From 1.2.1 To 1.2.2

The group_uid field in the SQL share driver groups table has been changed from an INT to a VARCHAR(255). Execute the provided SQL script to update your database if you are using the native SQL share driver.

mysql --user=root --password=<MySQL-root-password> <db name> < 1.2.1_to_1.2.2.sql

7   Upgrading Ingo From 1.2 To 1.2.1

The share_owner field in the SQL share driver table has been changed from a VARCHAR(32) to a VARCHAR(255). Execute the provided SQL script to update your database if you are using the native SQL share driver.

mysql --user=root --password=<MySQL-root-password> <db name> < 1.2_to_1.2.1.sql

8   Upgrading Ingo From 1.1.x To 1.2

This is a non-exhaustive, quick explanation of what has changed between Ingo version 1.1.x and 1.2.x.

8.1   SQL Backend

An SQL table has been added than can optionally be used as a storage backend for the filter rules. Using this backend no longer limits the number and size of rules.

Execute the provided SQL script to add the table to your database, e.g.:

mysql --user=root --password=<MySQL-root-password> <db name> < scripts/sql/ingo.sql

You also have to execute the provided PHP script to migrate the existing rules from the preferences backend to the new database table:

ingo-convert-prefs-to-sql < filename

filename is a file that contains a list of users, one username per line. The username should be the same as how the preferences are stored in the preferences backend (e.g. usernames may have to be in the form user@example.com). You can create such a list with the following MySQL command:

mysql --user=root --password=<MySQL-root-password> --skip-column-names --batch --execute='SELECT DISTINCT pref_uid FROM horde_prefs' <db name>

8.2   New Beta SQL Share Driver Support

A new beta-level SQL Horde_Share driver has been added in Horde 3.2. This driver offers significant performance improvements over the existing Datatree driver, but it has not received the same level of testing, thus the beta designation. In order to make use of this driver, you must be using Horde 3.2-RC3 or later. To migrate your existing share data, run ingo-convert-datatree-shares-to-sql. Be sure to read the entry above and create the new SQL tables before running the migration script.

9   Upgrading Ingo From 1.0.x To 1.1.x

This is a non-exhaustive, quick explanation of what has changed between Ingo version 1.0.x and 1.1.x.

9.1   Backends parameter changes - procmail driver

In config/backends.php, the procmailrc parameter in the procmail entry has been deprecated. It has been replaced by the filename parameter.
