I recently updated a local instance of Galaxy to revision_17 using git checkout release_17.05 && git pull --ff-only origin release_17.05
Now the instance will not run, telling me I need to upgrade the database from 132 to 134 after I backup. I am using the default database (sqlite/alchemy?). How do I backup the database? Then how do I update to 134?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks, Deane Blazie
What version of Galaxy are you upgrading from?
I don't know how to find the current version I updated from because it won't run. But it was installed around June 2016. I'm running on Linux.
Thanks for the help.
Hi Deane
Have a look at the file "version.py" which is lists the version number. Go into the galaxy root directory, and execute: "cat lib/galaxy/version.py"
Hope this helps Regards, Hans-Rudolf
Because I have already done the git upgrade, the version.py file shows 17.05. So I don't know what version I came from but I'm guessing 16.07
My question is this: How do I backup the existing database. The links all show how to upgrade the database with the manage_db.py script but now how to backup the database. I've looked on the web at sqlite alchemy but can't find much there either. Is there a database manager that has the tools to unload a database and reload with the new schema?
Thanks again, Deane
Yes, I'm trying to find instructions on how to backup the existing database. Then I can update the database with manage_db.py. But first I need to unload it, back it up.
Thanks, Deane
The admin docs have help, but this prior post also covers the details in a conversational format. https://biostar.usegalaxy.org/p/11858/
