Read about how your Crucible installation works with FishEye.

Before you Start

  • Before upgrading you should always read the Release Notes, Changelog and Upgrade Guides for the version you are upgrading to, as well as any versions you are skipping.
  • We strongly recommend you make a backup of your data before upgrading Crucible. Simply make a copy of your crucible_install_dir/var/data/ directory.
  • Download the Crucible zip file.

Upgrade Procedure

If you have Crucible configured to use a FISHEYE_INST directory, then simply:

  1. Extract the new Crucible version to a directory.
  2. Leave your FISHEYE_INST environment variable set to its existing location.
  3. Start Crucible from the new installation.
  4. Follow any version-specific instructions found in the Release Notes.

Read more about the FISHEYE_INST environment variable.

If you are not using FISHEYE_INST, you will need to copy some files from your old Crucible installation to your new one.

  1. Extract the new Crucible archive into a directory such as /NEW_FISHEYE/.
  2. Delete the /NEW_FISHEYE/var directory.
  3. Shut down the old Crucible instance if it is running.
  4. Copy /OLD_FISHEYE/config.xml to /NEW_FISHEYE/.
  5. Copy (or move) the /OLD_FISHEYE/var directory to /NEW_FISHEYE/var.
  6. If you have a Cenqua-issued Crucible license, copy all /OLD_FISHEYE/*.license files to /NEW_FISHEYE/. (Atlassian-issued licenses are included within config.xml.)
  7. Follow any version-specific instructions found in the Release Notes.
