To upgrade between eCampaigning Tool releases, prevent issues by following the instructions here.

All Upgrades

  1. Read the release notes including dependencies and update those products as necessary
  2. Update the filesystem version of the eCampaigning Tool and restart
  3. If you haven't edited (via the ZMI) the portal_properties > ecampaigning_properties or portal_properties > country_lists then you could delete them and they will be re-created in the next step
  4. From the ZMI, reinstall eCampaigning Tool from the portal_quickinstaller
  5. From the ZMI go to Archetype Tool > Update Schema (tab) and upgrade the eCampaigning Tool schemas (upgrades existing instances of eCampaigning Tool content - so you can also choose not to do this as new instances will reflect the latest version)
  6. Check that you don't have any customised versions of eCampaigning Tool files in the portal_skins/custom folder (or other folder you designate).
  7. Verify any existing Action Editions work (render and can be submitted) and that you can add new Action Editions.
  8. Done

Version 0.2 beta to 0.2 release candidate

Version 0.2 release candidate has an added component: actionrecord_catalog (via ZMI) to allow the public listing of action participants (if they didn't select anonymous). When upgrading, ensure (via the ZMI):

  1. actionrecord_catalog is created
  2. In portal_properties > ecampaigning_properties, the following properties and values (with type) exist. recent_actions_count: 200 (int) and actionrecord_catalog: actionrecord_catalog (string)
