Great news - suitecrm 8.8.1 & 7.14.7 are now available to download!
This is a security and maintenance release with numerous fixes along with an important feature update, as such, we encourage SuiteCRM users to upgrade ASAP.
Check out the blog on our website for full details!
Is there a different upgrade procedure? Running my standard upgrade script and it’s deleting the bin folder, which prevents the upgrade from completing when going from 8.8.0 to 8.8.1.
Are you using a different / a custom developed script?
Why not the standard upgrade process?
I made a script that runs the standard upgrade process, plus does a backup of everything prior and checks and resets file permissions after the upgrade.
That sounds good. Why would you delete the bin folder though?
I didn’t, the upgrade process did, along with other older legacy files. That’s the confusion.
Worked smoothly, thanks
That’s during the deletion / extraction process or similar?
If you execute the upgrade process as user, it’s not possible to notice a missing file / deletion or replacement - if you don’t look for it at the right time.
Could you just add some 30 idle seconds or similar to your script and mimic the human process more?
I got this message during upgrading from the 8.8

It got updated successfully in less than a minute though.
While I appreciate this update, I am a bit confused since 8.9 is also expected and day now?
Yes, these versions have security & some major bug fixes. They will release 8.9 after this.
did the update, it appears to work nicely (and even resolved some of my older issues)
now, I see that oauth2 was most of this update, if we could only get someone to write us a tutorial on how to connect to google workspace (microsoft is already covered with a template)
Amen to that. I couldn’t agree more
