Hello

I am about to test an upgrade from 6.5.15 CE, and the prerequitites seem a bit unclear to me

"Increase the default value of the parameters listed below before you begin the upgrade process if you are using Zend Core 2.0:
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Zend\Core\etc\fastcgi.conf and increase the default value for ConnectionTimeout to 3000 seconds and RequestTimeout to 6000 seconds.
Navigate to the php.ini file and increase the default value of max_execution_time to 6000 seconds. "

I am running a ubuntu 13.10 server, do I need to take that in account ?

"[i]Perform the following for the large size of the upgrade files:

Modify and save the value of Maximum upload size to 21000000 (20MB) in the Advanced section of the System Settings page of your current SuiteCRM installation.[/i]"

OK easy


" Navigate to the php.ini file on your web server and configure the parameters listed below in the Advanced section of the System Settings page of your current SuiteCRM installation:"

Can’t get the point … where is the Advanced section of the System Settings in the php.ini ???

" Set post_max_size to at least 60MB
Set upload_max_filesize settings to at least 60MB
Set max_input_time to a large number
Set memory_limit to 256MB "

Large number means ???

Thanks for your help

Hi there,

1.) No, this is for Windows.
2.) Yep, easy!
3.) Large numbers are required for custom modules and for a smooth installation. You could modify these but you would need to insure that your limits allowed for your CRM to run without error/timing out.

Thanks,

Will.

Seems like I was not clear with points 3/4 : I’ll do it again

Question 3)

" Navigate to the php.ini file on your web server and configure the parameters listed below in the Advanced section of the System Settings page of your current SuiteCRM installation:"

Can’t get the point … where is the Advanced section of the System Settings in the php.ini ???

Question 4)
" Set post_max_size to at least 60MB
Set upload_max_filesize settings to at least 60MB
Set max_input_time to a large number
Set memory_limit to 256MB "

Large number for max_input_time means ???
