  • Upgrade to 7.2.7 from 5.8.3

    Hi,
    What is the best way to upgrade from 5.8.3 to 7.2.7?​ EspoCRM runs on a Windows Server 2016 server with XAMPP (PHP 7.4.3, Apache 2.4.41, MariaDB 10.4.11).​
    It is possible to upgrade from 5.8.3 to 5.8.4, from 5.8.4 to 5.8.5, ... up to 7.2.7. (use all upgrades from 5.8.3 to 7.2.7). Is it possible to do this using the UI in EspoCRM (Administration - Upgrade)?​
    Thanks

    Hi,
    No via UI.
    there are many think changed from v5 => v6 => v7.

    always use command line for upgrade.

    before go to 7.2.7, maybe if remember v6 end, upgrade php to 8.x ( 8.0 or maybe 8.1 )

      So the procedure will be the following?​
      1. Run Shell from XAMPP
      2. Run syntax
      Code:
      php command.php upgrade -y --file="EspoCRM-upgrade.zip"

      3. Repeat until the last version​.

      Upgrade PHP to 8.x before upgrading to EspoCRM 7.2.7?​

      Thanks

        php command.php upgrade

        Espocrm v7 is php 8 compatible so you are ready for futur

      I guess that would work. You do not even need the last part of the command, the upgrade script pull each time the fitting version and will show the message "there is a more recent version..." or alike until "you have the most recent version"

        Ok. Is it not necessary to upgrade PHP to upgrade EspoCRM?​ Should I do the PHP upgrade before starting EspoCRM?​

          it is better to upgrade your PHP first to avoid any issue when upgrading.
