Final Release Candidate for Zentyal 3.2 is now available!

[J. A. Calvo]

The Zentyal Development Team is proud to announce that the second and last Zentyal Server 3.2 release candidate (Zentyal 3.2-rc2) is now available for download! The next stable Zentyal Server version, Zentyal 3.2, will be published on the 19th of September.

This new release candidate is now shipping new migration code to ease upgrades from Zentyal 3.0 installations and several bug fixes and correction introduced since last RC1.

We are now very close to the official release date and we would like to ask you to participate to this ultimate test sprint. To join the effort and test this version, start with a fresh installation of Zentyal 3.2-rc2 with Internet connection to make sure that the latest versions of the packages have been downloaded.

If you already have a Zentyal 3.1-rc1 installed, you can upgrade the full system by using the Software Management module or with apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade in command line.

If you want to test the upgrade from a Zentyal 3.0 installation, just do the following:

Code: [Select]

sudo sed -i 's|zentyal/3.0|zentyal/3.1|g' /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Please remember this release candidate is not yet intended to be used for production purposes and should only be tested in a non critical environment. We are really looking for your feedback!

If I did a configuration backup in 3.0.26, and then install 3.2 onto a test machine (fresh), do you think 3.2 would be able to import that configuration?

[J. A. Calvo]

Hi Lonniebiz, currently we've implemented only the upgrade from 3.0 packages to 3.2 ones. Restoring a backup from a different version is not going to work. Anyway, we are researching if there is a easy way to do it reusing the migration code we have already, but we can't promise if it will be ready for the 3.2 release.

So, am i right, that upgrading from 3.0.26 to 3.2 will be a simple change lines in sources.list and making apt-get dist-upgrade?
And all data (including dimain data, user profiles etc) will be exported automaticly?
Thanks in advance.
