How to upgrade

From OpenCA Labs WiKi

This is an easy way to upgrade provided by Ralf Hornik on how to upgrade from v0.9.2+ to v1.0.2+. Please refer to the OpenCA PKI Mailing lists for more information.

  • make a backup using openca backup tool from your old ca
  • backup cacert.pem and cacrl.pem, cakey and openssl extfiles (if modified)
  • make a fresh install of OpenCA 1.x
  • create new databases if needed
  • configure the openca 1.x installation (config.xml)
  • recover the backup into OpenCA 1.0x using the backup tool from OpenCA 1.x
  • recover cacert.pem and cacrl.pem, cakey and extfiles (if modified) to OpenCA 1.x 


 NOTE: The CDP may change since OpenCA 1.0 uses different Web Uri's!  
 You have to solve this by yourself!
