[Vtigercrm-developers] vtiger 5 GA - Validation Build for Testing

[Gopal]

Dear Team,

I am happy to inform you that our GA validation build is ready for testing. 

Before announcing our public release we would like to have a final round of validation, so that we can avoid any last minute glitches.

Kindly participate in this final testing and report any bugs in Trac:

http://vtiger.fosslabs.com

You can download the version 5 GA validation build (SVN Tag:  9353) from the following URLs:

http://vtiger.com/archives/vtigercrm-5.0.0.exe
http://vtiger.com/archives/vtigercrm-5.0.0-source.tar.gz
http://vtiger.com/archives/vtigercrm-5.0.0.bin

I have also attached the scripts for migrating data from v5 RC to v5 GA - Val build - <file attached>

By tomorrow morning (India time), we are expecting plugins to be ready for the testing purpose. In the meantime, kindly post any issues in Trac under "Version:  5.0-VAL" 

Data Migration Procedure: V5 RC to v5 GA VAL
****WARNING: Before starting migration, take a backup of theexisting database****
Step 1: First take a database dump from the version 5 RC setup.
Step 2: Install v5 GA - VAL Build in a new folder in your Web server.
Step 3: Save the rc_to_ga_migration.php file inside the <vtiger Home>/modules/Migration folder.
Step 4: Log in to your vtiger CRM system after extracting GA - VAL build

Step 5: In the Browser invoke the following URL:
http://localhost/vtigercrm/index.php?module=Migration&action=rc_to_ga_migration
Note: Assuming that you have installed vtiger CRM inhttp://localhost/vtigercrm/ directory. If you have a different directory structurespecify your own URL.
 
or, 

Click on the Settings -> Migration Wizard and change theURL:
from,

http://localhost/index.php?module=Migration&action=MigrationStep1&parenttab=Settings
to, 
http://localhost/index.php?module=Migration&action=rc_to_ga_migration&parenttab=Settings
It will take few seconds to migrate database from v5 RC tov5 GA- VAL.
After successful migration, following message will be displayed:
 
"Needed database changes from 5 RC to 5 GA have beendone."
 
Happy testing,

Best Regards,
Gopal
