MediaGoblin ignores this argument and creates a virtualenv with --system-site-packages regardless. Appears it's been this way since the early days. Removing this make the installation instructions easier to read.

Upgrading MediaGoblin
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
Preparation
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
*ALWAYS* take a backup before upgrading, especially before running migrations. That
|
|
way if something goes wrong, we can fix things.
|
|
|
|
Although not strictly necessary, we recommend you shut down your current
|
|
MediaGoblin/Celery processes before upgrading.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrade
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
1. Update to the latest release. In your ``mediagoblin`` directory, run::
|
|
|
|
git fetch && git checkout -q v0.12.0 && git submodule update
|
|
|
|
2. Note down any plugins you have installed by reviewing your
|
|
``mediagoblin.ini`` configuration. These will be removed by the following
|
|
steps and must be re-installed.
|
|
|
|
3. Remove your existing installation::
|
|
|
|
make distclean
|
|
|
|
4. Recreate the virtual environment and install MediaGoblin::
|
|
|
|
./bootstrap.sh && ./configure &&
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
5. Re-install any ":doc:`plugins`" you had previously installed. Skipping these
|
|
may result in errors updating the database.
|
|
|
|
6. Update the database::
|
|
|
|
./bin/gmg dbupdate
|
|
|
|
7. Restart the Paster and Celery processes. If you followed ":doc:`deploying`",
|
|
this may be something like::
|
|
|
|
sudo systemctl restart mediagoblin-paster.service
|
|
sudo systemctl start mediagoblin-celeryd.service
|
|
|
|
To see the logs for troubleshooting, use something like::
|
|
|
|
sudo journalctl -u mediagoblin-paster.service -f
|
|
sudo journalctl -u mediagoblin-celeryd.service -f
|
|
|
|
8. View your site and hover your cursor over the "MediaGoblin" link in the
|
|
footer to confirm the version number you're running.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updating your system Python
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Upgrading your operating system or installing a new major version of Python may
|
|
break MediaGoblin. This typically occurs because Python virtual environment is
|
|
referring to a copy of Python that no longer exists. In this situation use the
|
|
same process for "Upgrade" above.
