You are here
Edit: Updated to 4.4.4 - Also note support from the developer.
Please note that the developer of Mayan NO LONGER SUPPORTS A MANUAL INSTALL. Hint we use a manual install for Turnkey. It seems he started removing upgrade instructions after 4.4. However with that being said, these instructions do work! If you run into issues post here first!
Note: The warnings about urllib3, chardet and charset_normalizer are normal and are cause by the transition between Python 3.9 and 3.10 taking place for some dependencies.
Have a Fresh TKL Mayan EDMS v17.1 install and want to upgrade? In this post I will document how you can upgrade Mayan EDMS v17.1 v4.2.7 to the latest (as of this post) to v4.4.4 in about 30 minutes or less! If you find this helpful or have questions or issues post a reply.
Note: There are changes in v4.4.2 that are not backwards compatible. Please read the release notes to see what those changes are!
This guide assumes:
- You are logged in as root
- You have a working system
- You have not made any modifications to the base system
- Made a complete backup of your system
Now lets crack on once again shall we? This is very much like my other post "TKL Mayan EDMS v16.1 - Upgrade v3.5.5 to 4.0.23" where I basically take instructions from the docs but tweak them for TKL install.
