Back to Upgrading Server

STEP 1 - Ubuntu server software upgrade

*** This only works if you have an open connection to the internet for the server ***'

Login using SSH to the server.

Then run: 

sudo apt-get install update-manager-core

Edit the file /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set: 

Prompt=lts

Check the upgrade process: 

sudo do-release-upgrade -c

If this reports an upgrade is available, then continue, if not, then check your apt sources.list file. 

sudo do-release-upgrade -m server

Go find a coffee…

During Upgrade

  • If the upgrade fails in the beginning, then remove any non-standard sources in the /etc/apt/sources.list file and the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ folder and try again.
  • When asked whether to keep the maintainers version of a config file or keep your own custom version of a config file, always select the maintainers version. Make a note of these files and then after the upgrade go back and check the config files for any customisation you would like to apply as you did to the old server version. See below for an example list.
    • /etc/security/limits.conf
    • /etc/sysctl.conf
    • /etc/munin/munin-node.conf
  • Take careful note of the PostgreSQL upgrade notes prompted on the command line. See step 2 below.

After Upgrade

Limits

Restore the limits:

Maven

Remove any old maven version: 

sudo apt-get purge maven2

Java

Type the following to upgrade Java: 

sudo apt-get --purge remove openjdk-6* openjdk-7* openjdk-8*

Then install new Java dependencies.

Then run tasksel.
