Upgrading
Applying IPCop updates after Cop+ has been installed.
There is always a risk that an IPCop update will overwrite something and break an addon. You do not need to uninstall Cop+ before upgrading IPCop, but the Cop+ install script should usually be re-run manually after installing IPCop updates.
Logon to the console as root and rerun the Cop+ install script:
cd /var/ipcop/copplus
./copplussetup
Upgrading to a new version of Cop+
Cop+ 3.0.1 to 3.0.2 Upgrades
You don't need to uninstall Cop+ 3.0.1 to do an upgrade. Just do this:
Use WinSCP to copy
copplusaddon-3.0.2.tgz
to the root (i.e. /) of your IPCop. The md5sum is 5dc33432ba891ea8974ccad353ebeba5
Login as root on IPCop using putty.exe
or by hooking up a keyboard and monitor. Type these commands:
cd / tar -zxf copplusaddon-3.0.2.tgz /var/ipcop/copplus/update-3.0.2
Cop+ 2.2 to 3.0.x Upgrades
Sorry, but there really isn't an upgrade path. All your Dansguardian configuration settings will be lost. Manually make a copy of any configuration changes you've made to dansguardian files and use them for reference when setting up Cop+ 3.0. However, your Dansguardian logfiles will NOT be wiped out by the uninstall of Cop+ 2.2.
Uninstall Cop+ 2.2 from the addons GUI page.
Restart Squid by going to the IPCop web inteface,
Services - Proxy page and hit the Save button.
Install Cop+ 3.0 according to direction on install page.
Note: Cop+ will no longer appear on the addons menu since it no longer uses that unmaintained system.
You can uninstall the addons server if you don't have any other addons using that system. Logon to the console as root and do this:
cd /addons ./addoncfg -u
