Overview
- This package works with Ubuntu 16.04(and later versions), Debian 9(and later version), and Mint 18(and later versions). For lesser versions of these operating system, then use the following PHP5 compatible package:
- 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, 4.2.1, or 4.2.2 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, 4.2.1, or 4.2.2 and you previously installed openemr at directory /var/www/openemr . In Ubuntu, Mint and Debian, recommend upgrading via command line.
Backup before upgrade:
In OpenEMR, go to administration menu and select Backup. Then click 'Continue' and save the backup file to your computer.
