Upgrade from 2.12 to 3.0

Added by xraynorm - about 12 years ago

Hello.

I have a tvheadend 2.12 nicely setup on my 24/7 server (installed from the hts repository). What is the best way upgrade to 3.0?

Should I wipe 2.12 completely, or can I install the 3.0.deb over the top of 2.12 to preserve config setting?

Thanks.

Should work fine with upgrade. Back up your config if your not sure and might want to go back.

Im running ubuntu server 10.04 LTS

It looks like TVHeadend 3.0 depends on a newer version of libssl.

sudo dpkg -i tvheadend_3.0_i386.deb

Tried installing these, but they will not install.

This is true of the pre-built binaries as we currently only provide deb packages for the latest Ubuntu release, so 12.04 LTS.

This will hopefully change in the future, however for now please follow Building for instructions to create you own.

Note: although the scripts say "precise", they'll work for ubuntu back to something like 8/9.04.

After the failed upgrade to 3.0, TVheadend would not work at at all.

Had to reinstall 2.12 from repositories. Working again now.

sudo dpkg -r tvheadend
sudo apt-get remove hts-tvheadend
sudo apt-get install hts-tvheadend

config file were left intact.

Im going to upgrade to 12.04 lts soon. So I will try it then.

Thanks anyway!

Good to see TVheadend getting some attention!
