Upgrade Instructions

If you have VOS and ODS releases 4 or below, you can upgrade your installation and databases to the newest release as follows:

  • Shut down the previous server. Restart the new server executable you have built or downloaded in the same directory.
  • There is a change in the DAV metadata represented in the RDF store. To bring all up-to-date, log in as dba with isql and execute:

SQL> dav_replicate_all_to_rdf_quad (1);

This is a one-time manual update. The result is changing the DAV graph-name to have no trailing slash.

To upgrade the version of the ODS application while maintaining any data you may have in them, do the following:

  • Take a backup of the database file(s), just in case.
  • Start the server.
  • Re-install the VAD packages corresponding to the applications. These are found in the share/virtuoso/vad directorty in the tree where make install copies the results of the build.
  • First, using isql, run:

SQL> vad_install('ods_framework_dav.vad', 0);

  • Then do the same for all the other packages.

If you do not have any old data, you can use the demo database, which has all these pre-installed.
