Upgrade Subversion

Use the yum package manager to upgrade to the latest supported Subversion release.

TeamForge 6.1.1 supports Subversion 1.7.2.

Details of the Subversion repository file:

FileName: subversion-1.7.2.repo
Content:
[CollabNetSVN]
name=collabnet_svn
baseurl=http://packages.collab.net/6.1.2.0/redhat/5Server/$basearch
gpgkey=http://packages.collab.net/RPM-GPG-KEY-collabnet
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

Login as root and stop all collabnet services.
Copy the file subversion-1.7.2.repo to /etc/yum.repos.d/.
Check that Subversion 1.7.2 is available for upgrade:
- yum list subversion
Upgrade Subversion.
- yum update subversion subversion-perl subversion-python mod_dav_svn
Verify the Subversion upgrade.
- rpm -qa | grep subversion
- svn --version | grep " version"
Change to the runtime/scripts directory.
- cd /opt/collabnet/teamforge/runtime/scripts

Note:

The next 2 steps are required only if Subversion is upgraded on the app server.
In the case of a multi-box setup, where SCM resides on a separate server, skip the next 2 steps and go to the last step to restart collabnet services.

Run the Subversion upgrade script.
- ./svn-upgrade-working-copies.sh
Set the permissions for branding and publish directories.
- eval `./options-to-shell-variables.py`
- chown $HTTPD_USER:$HTTPD_GROUP $OVERRIDES_DIR $PUBLISH_DIR -R
Start all collabnet services.
- /etc/init.d/collabnet start
