Upgrading

This process is for upgrading to Chevereto V4 from Chevereto V3.20 (previous major release). Check Upgrading Free if you need to upgrade from a free edition.

Review Chevereto V4 vs V3 comparison tables for a better understanding of changes in V4.

Requirements

  • Existing installation running Chevereto V3.20
  • Backup for the existing previous installation (optional, recommended)

Upgrade to V4

Upgrade to Chevereto V4 is performed by overriding the previous software files with the new files provided by Chevereto V4.

Follow these step:

  • Remove app/vendor from your Chevereto V3 installation
  • Override Chevereto V3 files with Chevereto V4 files
  • Switch to PHP 8
  • Create app/env.php (see remark below)
  • Proceed with database update

Application settings

Chevereto V4 uses a new configuration standard.

  • Rename app/settings.php to app/env.php
  • Update file accordingly the updated environment
<?php // app/settings.php
$settings['db_host'] = 'localhost';
$settings['db_name'] = 'chevereto';
$settings['db_user'] = 'user';
$settings['db_pass'] = 'pass';
<?php // app/env.php
return [
    'CHEVERETO_DB_HOST' => 'localhost',
    'CHEVERETO_DB_NAME' => 'chevereto',
    'CHEVERETO_DB_USER' => 'user',
    'CHEVERETO_DB_PASS' => 'pass',
];

CRON

Chevereto V4 comes with a new console. You must update your CRON command to point to the new location.

From Chevereto V3 cron:

cli.php -C cron

To Chevereto V4 cron:

app/bin/legacy -C cron
