[Irtalk] Upgrade of DSpace from 4.2 to 5.2 on our development server

[Lewatle Phaladi]

Hi Hilton,

My database name is not "dspace" I am getting the following error, I guess the script is looking for dspace database inside postgres server, where can I make changes

dspace at dspace:~/install/dspace5.2$ psql -U dspace -f /dspace/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/etc/postgres/update-sequences.sql
psql: FATAL:  database "dspace" does not exist

Hi All,

Just a few notes about our upgrade from 4.2 to 5.2 on our development server.

1. Upgrade server. DSpace 5.2 requires Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Upgrading/Server_Software
2. New automatic database upgrade. During the upgrade the database schema is automatically upgraded. You may have to manually run a sequence update.
   See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Upgrading/DSpace/General_Notes#Step_3_-_Database_upgrades
3. New Mirage 2 theme. See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/XMLUI_Theme/M2
4. New ORCID integration. See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Researcher_Identification
5. New Altmetrics integration. See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Altmetrics
6. New Google Analytics integration. See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Google_Analytics
7. New PDF Cover Page feature. See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/PDF_Cover_Page

We will be upgrading our production server sometime in July. After the upgrade I will report on any extra upgrade items.

Cheers
