how to upgrade an Oracle installation from OpenACS 4.6.3 to 5
.
- PostGreSQL. You must use PostGreSQL 7.3.x or newer to upgrade OpenACS beyond 4.6.3. See Upgrade PostGreSQL to 7.3; Table 2.2, “Version Compatibility Matrix”
- Upgrade the file system for packages/acs-kernel. the section called “Upgrading the OpenACS files” Upgrade the kernel manually. (There is a script to do most of the rest: /contrib/misc/upgrade_4.6_to_5.0.sh on HEAD). You'll still have to do a lot of stuff manually, but automated trial and error is much more fun.)
- Manually execute each of the upgrade scripts in sequence, either from within psql or from the command line with commands such as PostGreSQL. You must use PostGreSQL 7.3.x or newer to upgrade OpenACS beyond 4.6.3. See Upgrade PostGreSQL to 7.3; Table 2.2

Upgrade ACS Service Contracts manually: Upgrade ACS Service Contracts manually: Load acs-authentication data model. Load acs-lang data model. (This step may overlap with the two previous steps, but I think it's harmless?) Create a file which will be executed on startup which takes care of a few issues with authentication and internationalization: create $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/tcl/zzz-postload.tcl containing: Load acs-authentication data model. Load acs-lang data model. (This step may overlap with the two previous steps, but I think it's harmless?) Create a file which will be executed on startup which takes care of a few issues with authentication and internationalization: create $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/tcl/zzz-postload.tcl containing: If you can login, visit /acs-admin/apm and upgrade acs-kernel and acs-service-contract and uncheck the data model scripts. Restart. If everything is still working, make another backup of the database.
- Upgrade other packages via the APM

There are a few things you might want to do once you've
upgraded. First, the acs-kernel parameters need to be set to
allow HREF and IMG tags, if you want users who can edit HTML
