I have running server on CB 1.2 with many users. How to safely upgrade to CB 2.0 without loss a data?
 
3. How to install custombuild?
Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin
wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/custombuild/2.0/custombuild.tar.gz
tar xvzf custombuild.tar.gz
cd custombuild
./build

Note, custombuild 2.0 is still Alpha

Note that Custombuild 2.0 is now in Alpha release, meaning it's ready for the early stages of testing.
This should be reserved for knowledgeable Admins, those with experience working with apache, php, and php-fpm (would be useful).

This is the first iteration of the script, so although it should "work", it is possible that there are items missing or unresolved bugs.

We do not yet recommend custombuild 2.0 for production systems.
After sufficient testing has happened, CB 2.0 will be upgraded to Beta status, in which case it should be more ready for other who wish to test it out.

A new beta release of DA is planned for this week, that's why we haven't posted any instructions yet.

Firstly you need to get DA updated to 1.42 (or download pre-release binaries). Then:

Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
mv options.conf options.conf.back
mv configure configure.back
wget -O build http://files.directadmin.com/services/custombuild/2.0/custombuild/build
./build update

Now you get a new options.conf file generated, please review it and modify by your own needs. Then rebuild apache/php.

Thank you!
 
Thank you Martynas! So I will wait for DA update before migrate. New DA mean including CB 2.0 or something new?

You are welcome. It will have many new features (most of them are already included in pre-release binaries) including support of CB 2.0.
 
I can`t see - is a place from I can download new version DA? Or we are still waiting for relase? BTW is a list with new features/improvements of new DA version?
