Updating Repositories When Upgrading Knora

When a new version of Knora introduces changes that are not backwards-compatible with existing data, your repository will need to be updated.

Upgrading from Knora Version 7.0.0 or Later

In most cases, Knora will update your repository automatically when it starts. If manual changes are needed, these will be described in the release notes, and must be done first.

Before starting a new version of Knora, back up your repository, so you can restore it in case the automatic repository update fails. You can use one of these scripts in webapi/scripts:

  • fuseki-dump-repository.sh for Fuseki
  • graphdb-dump-repository.sh for GraphDB

For information on command-line options, run the script with no arguments.

Upgrading from a Knora Version Before 7.0.0

WARNING: If you do not follow this procedure, your data may be corrupted, and Knora may not work.

You must first upgrade to Knora 7.0.0, then upgrade again to the current version.

The overall procedure is:

  1. Back up your repository as described above.

  2. Install Knora release 7.0.0, and read the general instructions in upgrade/graphdb-se/old/README.md in that release.

  3. Follow the instructions in one of the subsections below for the version you are upgrading from.

  4. Back up your repository again.

  5. Install the current release of Knore, and follow any manual update instructions in its release notes.

  6. Start Knora to continue the automatic upgrade.
