It is recommended to backup Moodle before performing any upgrade. You should backup three components of Moodle:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\nMoodle software<\/strong> (\/var\/www\/webroot\/ROOT)<\/li>\r\nMoodle static assets<\/strong> (\/var\/www\/webroot\/moodledata)<\/li>\r\nMoodle dynamic content<\/strong> (database dump)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFollow the below steps to upgrade your Moodle to the latest version.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Step 1<\/strong> – On the Moodle environment dashboard, hover your mouse on Application Servers. You should see the following screen:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Step 2<\/strong> – Click on the Web SSH<\/strong> to connect to the application server node as shown below.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Now, run the following commands to backup three Moodle components:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
cd \/var\/www\/webroot\r\ntar -czvf moodledata_root.tar.gz ROOT\/, \r\ntar -czvf moodledata.tar.gz moodledata\/\r\nmysqldump -h node1789-moodleapp.rosehosting.us -u root -p moodle --column-statistics=0 > moodle_dump.sql<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nStep 3<\/strong> – Before performing an upgrade, you will need to enable Maintenance Mode in Moodle. Click on the Administration<\/strong> => Site administration<\/strong> => Server<\/strong> => Maintenance<\/strong> mode<\/strong> => Enable<\/strong> and click on the Save changes<\/strong> as shown below:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nStep 4<\/strong> – Now, log out from the Moodle admin panel and access it again. You should see the Moodle maintenance window on the following screen:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nStep 5<\/strong> – Now, connect to the Moodle application through Web SSH and download the latest version of Moodle using the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\ncd \/var\/www\/webroot\r\nwget https:\/\/download.moodle.org\/stable311\/moodle-latest-311.tgz<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNow, rename the Moodle software directory to another name:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
mv ROOT ROOT.backup<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNext, extract the downloaded file with the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
tar -xzf moodle-latest-311.tgz<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNext, rename the extracted moodle directory to ROOT directory:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
mv moodle ROOT<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNext, copy the configuration file from the backup directory to the new Moodle ROOT directory:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
cp ROOT.backup\/config.php ROOT<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nYou can also copy any themes and modules from the backup directory:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
cp -pr ROOT.backup\/theme\/* ROOT\/theme\/\r\ncp -pr ROOT.backup\/mod\/* ROOT\/mod\/ <\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nStep 6 <\/strong>– Now, access your Moodle admin URL at http:\/\/moodleapp.rosehosting.us\/admin<\/strong>. You should see the following screen:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nStep 7<\/strong> – Click on the Continue<\/strong> button to upgrade Moodle to the latest version. You should see the following screen:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Step 8 <\/strong>– Review newer version information, scroll down and click on the Continue<\/strong> button. You should see the plugins check page:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Step 9<\/strong> – Click on Upgrade Moodle database now<\/strong>. Once the upgrade process is completed, you should see the Success message in the following screen:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
