Hi everyone,
Im going to be migrating my SuiteCRM to another server (Raspberry Pi 2). Im considering installing MariaDB instead of MySQL since I’ve heard it much better/faster. Has anyone experience any issues, do I need to convert file to something else?
Currently Im running SuiteCRM 7.6.4 on mySQL / php 5.6 - the new server will be MariaDB / php 7 using the lastest SuiteCRM release. Again, this is a physically new server (Raspberry Pi) with a fresh install of the OS, etc.
I don’t really know about this, but since nobody else is answering I will venture some advice…
If you can keep migration (different server) and upgrade (to MariaDB) separate, you will do yourself a favor. So you can try getting MariaDB working first on your current server, and then try to migrate that system to the new server, with as similar a stack as possible. Make sure you install the same version of SuiteCRM, of course.
I hear moving from MySQL to MariaDB is supposed to be utterly simple. But you can find generic instructions about that online.
Hello Junior,
I was searching for help, since I currently try to get suitecrm running on a raspberry pi2. But I do have problems during the installation process. I am a layman, but I think the problem is located due to the fact, that the rasperry pi has by default no root user. But it seem as if a root user is necessary during installation to connect the database.
Today I postet the item here in the forum.
How did you get suitecrm running on you raspberry?
Kind regards
Stephan
