::*[[Ubuntu Package Upgrade to 4.2.2 with PHP5]]

:This is pertinent for all users who have OpenEMR version 3.0.1, 3.1.0, 3.2.0, 4.0.0, 4.1.0, 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.0, or 4.2.1 on Ubuntu/Mint/Debian, and is basically a automated upgrade process (I do recommend backing OpenEMR up via the first step to avoid data loss). Note, you do not need to have the package installed previously to do an upgrade; it will work without the package being previously installed if you are using OpenEMR version 3.0.1, 3.1.0, 3.2.0, 4.0.0, 4.1.0, 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.0, or 4.2.1 and you previously installed openemr at directory /var/www/openemr . In Ubuntu, Mint and Debian, recommend upgrading via command line.
