Upgrade

  1. Move current (4.2.2) /openemr directory to a backup directory
    1. sudo mv /var/www/html/openemr ~/Documents/openemr.old

2. Unpackage 5.0.0 openemr into web directory and rename the directory to openemr 

   sudo tar -pxvzC /var/www/html/  -f ~/Downloads/openemr-5.0.0.tar.gz
   sudo mv /var/www/html/openemr-5.0.0 /var/www/html/openemr

3. Move following directories from old 4.2.2 version to /openemr directory: 

   openemr/sites/default/documents 
   sudo mv ~/Documents/openemr.old/sites/default/documents /var/www/html/openemr/sites/default/.
   openemr/sites/default/edi
   sudo mv ~/Documents/openemr.old/sites/default/edi /var/www/html/openemr/sites/default/.
   openemr/sites/default/era
   sudo mv ~/Documents/openemr.old/sites/default/era /var/www/html/openemr/sites/default/.
   openemr/sites/default/letter_templates
   sudo mv ~/Documents/openemr.old/sites/default/letter_templates /var/www/html/openemr/sites/default/.

4. Record the openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php file variables from your old 4.2.2 version, and type these into the openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php file in new openemr version 

   sudo joe ~/Documents/openemr.old/sites/default/sqlconf.php /var/www/html/openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php

5. In the openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php file, set the $config variable (found near bottom of file within bunch of slashes) to 1 ($config = 1;).

6. Open openemr/sql_upgrade.php (http://localhost/openemr/sql_upgrade.php) in web browser, choose 4.2.2 and click 'Upgrade Database'

7. Configure optional settings in openemr/sites/default/config.php files
