Is there any chance to upgrade EAP to any other version of confluence?

Hi!

Is there any workaround to upgrade 5.0-m9 to any other version of confluence?

Thank you!

you cannot upgrade to beta from a milestone release...

i moved the m05 install & home directory, ran beta installer and moved back modified configuration files.

Hello Martonk,

You should be able to move forward into the Confluence 5.0beta3. There is no way for you to move back from the EAP program to a 4.x version of Confluence. You can download the beta at the link below

http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/download-eap

Please let us know if you have further questions

Dear Daniel!

Thank you for the answer! After the confluence 5 will be published, can i upgrade it to it? (EAP to PROD)

mdesign

I downloaded the beta3 and it says:

./atlassian-confluence-5.0-beta3-x64.bin
Unpacking JRE ...
Starting Installer ...

This will install Confluence 5.0-beta3 on your computer.
OK [o, Enter], Cancel [c]

Choose the appropriate installation or upgrade option.
Please choose one of the following:
Express Install (uses default settings) [1], Custom Install (recommended for advanced users) [2], Upgrade an existing Confluence installation [3, Enter]

Existing installation directory:
[/opt/atlassian/confluence]

You can't use the upgrader to downgrade Confluence.
Finishing installation ...

maybe i have the answer:

unless the beta 3 was published later than 5.0-m9, it seems to be later build than beta3

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/JIRA+5.0+Beta+3+Release+Notes:

JIRA 5.0 Beta 3 (a.k.a 5.0 milestone 8 or 'm8')

That's why i can't upgrade from 5.0-m9 to 5.0-beta3, please somebody confirm it: am i right?

Dear C.Faysal!

I did your instructions:

Stopped the confluence
renamed the /opt/atlassian/confluence to confluence_old
renamed the /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence to confluence_old
installed the 5.0-beta3
renamed the /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence to confluence_beta3
renamed back the /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence_old to confluence
Edited the confluence.cfg.xml buildNumber to 4052

but then i must specify my licence with the modified Server ID, but not accept my valid licence. It says it not valid licence.

C.Faysal {CFcon}

Hmm thats not what i did. I just moved back previous config files. What you described is a bit too much. Is that a testing environment?

C.Faysal {CFcon}

I'm going to be more detailed after my meeting finished. Stay tuned. Approx. 30min

Dear C.Faysal!

Thank you for your time and effort. Everything worked like charm. These more steps i needed to take:

Rebuild index
move /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence_old/attachments to the new confluence dir
move /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence_old/bundled-plugins to the new confluence dir
move /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence_old/thumbnails to the new confluence dir

C.Faysal {CFcon}
