This release completely changes the database schema and so requires upgrading
|
|
|
|
|
it before starting the new version of the homeserver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The script "database-prepare-for-0.0.1.sh" should be used to upgrade the
|
|
|
|
|
database. This will save all user information, such as logins and profiles,
|
|
|
|
|
but will otherwise purge the database. This includes messages, which
|
|
|
|
|
rooms the home server was a member of and room alias mappings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before running the command the homeserver should be first completely
|
|
|
|
|
shutdown. To run it, simply specify the location of the database, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./database-prepare-for-0.0.1.sh "homeserver.db"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once this has successfully completed it will be safe to restart the
|
|
|
|
|
homeserver. You may notice that the homeserver takes a few seconds longer to
|
|
|
|
|
restart than usual as it reinitializes the database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On startup of the new version, users can either rejoin remote rooms using room
|
|
|
|
|
aliases or by being reinvited. Alternatively, if any other homeserver sends a
|
|
|
|
|
message to a room that the homeserver was previously in the local HS will
|
|
|
|
|
automatically rejoin the room.
