June 19, 2012 by Arvind Das

After reading this blog entry one would able to upgrade from Kaltura CE4 to Kaltura CE5. In this entry , i briefly explained the steps needed for migration from Kaltura CE4 to Kaltura CE5

Export your CE 4 DataBase

Run the following command (replace [user] and [password] with relevant values:

mysqldump kaltura -u[user] -p[password] > kaltura.sql

Install CE 5.0

Backup CE4 installation data and /opt/kaltura/web directory and install Kaltura CE5.

Replace values for (only) batch partner “-1” from new database with values in backup kaltura.sql file. Replace old values with new one in kaltura.sql
Import your CE4 DataBase

Run the following command (replace [user] and [password] with relevant values):

mysql kaltura -u[user] -p[password] < kaltura.sql

Rsync backedup web directory to your CE5 web directory

For example

 
rsync -r pathtobackup/web/* /opt/kaltura/web/

Run the migration scripts

run /opt/kaltura/app/deployment/updates/update.php
Run all sql scripts from /opt/kaltura/app/deployment/updates/sql
Run all php scritps from /opt/kaltura/app/deployment/updates/scripts with realrun param (for example: php script_name.php realrun)
Run all php scritps from /opt/kaltura/app/deployment/updates/scripts/add_permissions with realrun param (for example: php script_name.php realrun)

Deploy the KMC uiConf

Deploy kmc v4.0.12.5 ui conf by running:

php /opt/kaltura/app/deployment/uiconf/deploy_v2.php --ini=/opt/kaltura/web/flash/kmc/v4.2.14.9/config.ini

Also change permission of files

chmod -R 777 /opt/kaltura/web/content/entry/data

For CE5 to CE5 do not deploy UIconf and execute this script

php /opt/kaltura/app/scripts/utils/updatePartnerEntries2Sphinx.php “partner_id”

It should execute without errors else execute again.

Execute the script below if you are unable to see newly uploaded content after rebooting server

/usr/bin/php /opt/kaltura/app/plugins/sphinx_search/scripts/populateFromLog.php /opt/kaltura/app/plugins/sphinx_search/scripts/configs/server-sphinx.php

Run the Above script as a background process. Follow Instructions below
create a file as sphinx_server.sh and copy the above code into it as

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/php /opt/kaltura/app/plugins/sphinx_search/scripts/populateFromLog.php /opt/kaltura/app/plugins/sphinx_search/scripts/configs/server-sphinx.php > /dev/null 2>&1 &

save and change its permissions to chmod +x sphinx_server.sh

Run the migration scripts -- where are they? Add the line below in /etc/rc.local so that it starts executing after server is rebooted -- there is no line below?

"Run the migration scripts " ---- steps below this line are for running migration scripts. In /etc/rc.local add this line at bottom-- sh /your_path_to_sphinx_server.sh/sphinx_server.sh

Useful blog though. I had been meaning to write a script for deleting flavor videos files off disk and leaving the source by ls | grep 0_zjx4dvif | egrep -v mov | xargs rm in /opt/kaltura/web/content/entry/data/4/267

Would you mind explaining on "Replace values for (only) batch partner “-1”....Replace old values with new one in kaltura." You mean I have to set the batch partner value in the mysql dump file to -1?

as posted by kinglok, Fong I also do not understand what the batch partner value is. Where in the dumpfile would I look for it?
