Upgrade From 2.2.1 to 2.2.2

This page provides information on how to upgrade from VCL 2.2.1 to VCL 2.2.2. Please note it only applies for the upgrade from 2.2.1 to 2.2.2, this may or may not work for other versions.

The basic steps that will be performed

Download and Extract 2.2.2 code
Shutdown httpd service
Create backup of vcl database
Create backup of web code
Upgrade web code
Restart httpd service

Detailed steps for upgrade from 2.2.1 to 2.2.2

follow instructions on the VCL download page to download and verify apache-VCL-2.2.2.tar.bz2 and put in in /root
extract VCL 2.2.2 code
```
tar xjf apache-VCL-2.2.2.tar.bz2
```

Shutdown the httpd service

service httpd stop or /etc/init.d/httpd stop

We will create a backup of the vcl database. This will provide a restore point if necessary. There are no updates to the database in this upgrade, but it is still a good idea to have a backup.
```
mysqldump vcl > ~/vcl-pre2.2.2-upgrade.sql
```
Backup the web code. This step will move the 2.2.1 web directory out of the way so we can copy in the new web code base. These instructions assume that you installed the vcl web code at /var/www/html/vcl. If you installed it elsewhere, replace /var/www/html/vcl with your vcl web root.
```
cd /var/www/html
mv vcl ~/vcl_2.2.1_web
```

Copy the new code in place

cd /root/apache-VCL-2.2.2
cp -r web /var/www/html/vcl

Copy your 2.2.1 config files

cd ~/vcl_2.2.1_web/.ht-inc
cp conf.php secrets.php pubkey.pem keys.pem /var/www/html/vcl/.ht-inc

Make the maintenance directory writable by the web server user. Normally this is the apache user. If using a different user, change the below command accordingly.
```
chown apache /var/www/html/vcl/.ht-inc/maintenance
```

Restart httpd service

service httpd start or /etc/init.d/httpd start

Make some test reservations and watch the vcld.log to verify everything is working correctly.
```
tail -f /var/log/vcld.log
```
