link again and again.if you cannot download iRedAdmin-Pro for some reason, contact us directly.
Upload or copy the latest iRedAdmin to your server which has iRedAdmin
open source edition or old iRedAdmin-Pro release running. We assume you
uploaded it to /root/iRedAdmin-{BACKEND}-x.y.z.tar.bz2 ({BACKEND} is one
of LDAP, MySQL, PGSQL). We will use iRedAdmin-x.y.z below for
example, please replace x.y.z by the real file name. For example,
iRedAdmin-Pro-LDAP-2.1.2.tar.bz2.
Uncompress and upgrade iRedAdmin:
# cd /root/
# tar xjf iRedAdmin-x.y.z.tar.bz2
# cd iRedAdmin-x.y.z/tools/
# bash upgrade_iredadmin.sh
If you're running iRedMail-0.8.7 or earlier version, please login to SQL
server as root user (for MySQL/MariaDB, it's root user, for PostgreSQL,
it's postgres user) to alter SQL table iredadmin.log with below SQL command:
sql> USE iredadmin; sql> ALTER TABLE log MODIFY COLUMN ip VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL DEFAULT ''; sql> ALTER TABLE log MODIFY COLUMN event VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
sql> \c iredadmin; sql> ALTER TABLE log ALTER COLUMN ip TYPE VARCHAR(40); sql> ALTER TABLE log ALTER COLUMN event TYPE VARCHAR(20);
That's all. If it doesn't work for you, please post a new topic in our online support forum.
