Hi,
Can I go ahead and install the latest version of Omero on this new system? And then restore my data? And just have everything work properly under 5.2.2? Any hints as to how to best do this?
Or do I have to for some reason get everything working again under 4.4.4 on this new server, and then upgrade? That sounds like a lot of extra work that I'd rather avoid.
Once you have OMERO 5.2 installed, I think you could start from upgrading database. You would need to go through each db patch as follow:
- Code: Select all
$ pg_dump -h localhost -U omero -Fc -f /tmp/omero4.db.dump omero4
Password:
$ createdb -E UTF8 -O omero test_upgrade
$ pg_restore -Fc -d test_upgrade /tmp/omero4.db.dump
$ psql -h localhost -U omero test_upgrade < sql/psql/OMERO5.0__0/OMERO4.4__0.sql
...
status
---------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+
YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY UPGRADED YOUR DATABASE TO VERSION OMERO5.0__0+
+
+
(1 row)
COMMIT
$ psql -h localhost -U omero test_upgrade < sql/psql/OMERO5.1__1/OMERO5.0__0.sql
...
status
---------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+
YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY UPGRADED YOUR DATABASE TO VERSION OMERO5.1__1+
+
+
(1 row)
COMMIT
$ psql -h localhost -U omero test_upgrade < sql/psql/OMERO5.2__0/OMERO5.1__1.sql
status
---------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+
YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY UPGRADED YOUR DATABASE TO VERSION OMERO5.2__0+
+
+
(1 row)
COMMIT
remember to point omero config to your newly restored db
- Code: Select all
$ bin/omero config set omero.db.name test_upgrade
Please note that I dumped and restored db using the same PostgreSQL. If for some reason db dump was created using older version of PostgreSQL and you cannot restore on new one you may consider dumping plain sql
- Code: Select all
pg_dump -h old.postgres -U omero omero4 -O | gzip > /tmp/omero4.dump.gz
gunzip -c /tmp/omero4.dump.gz | psql -h new.postgres -U omero test_upgrade
Once db is up to date you need to copy over data repository. Find out which directory it is on the old omero deployment:
- Code: Select all
bin/omero config get | grep omero.data.dir
omero.data.dir=/OMERO4
Next step will be to copy configuration. Our documentation recommend to copy config file:
- Code: Select all
cp OMERO.server-old/etc/grid/config.xml OMERO.server/etc/grid
Although, this may be more complicated. Depends on how your infrastructure look like on new server, database settings, data repo, etc they can be different. I am guessing the simplest would be to apply relevant settings manually on the new deployment. If you are not sure send us the output of your omero4 config
- Code: Select all
OMERO.server-old/bin/omero config get
and we will advice exactly how to do it.
Please note that OMERO.web deployment changed
http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/supp ... nginx.html. You would need to apply new settings to get web working as well.
Once all of the above are done start OMERO.server and try cli to connect to:
- Code: Select all
$ bin/omero login
Previous session expired for root on localhost:4064
Server: [localhost:4064]
Username: [root]
Password:

I hope that will help
