Hello,
I´ve tried to find some information in koha´s documentation, but I failed to find anything usable. Sorry for my question:
Does Koha have a common way (script?) to update it to newer versions or do I have to make a new installation of it, configure it and reinstall the previous dumped database?
It depends on how you installed Koha in the first place. Did you install using the Debian packages (sudo apt-get install koha-common)? If you did, an upgrade is as easy as this: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade This will upgrade to the latest minor version, e.g. from 19.11.10 til 19.11.13. If you want to upgrade to a newer major version (e.g. from 19.11.x to 20.05.x) you need to adjust the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list before you do "sudo apt-get update". See "Pick which Koha version to follow" on the following wiki page for an idea of what you need to do. https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian#Pick_which_Koha_version_... Then, after adjusting /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list you should be able to upgrade with the same commands: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade Sometimes this will not upgrade Koha, because it is "held back" (I think this happens when the upgrade means you have to install new packages on the server, e.g. new Perl modules). In that case you have to try again with this command: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Remember to always scan the output of these commands for any error messages related to the upgrading of the Koha database. Good luck! Magnus
