0.9.1: standard django application and more
===========================================
For this version, we recommend to install a new instance (see
:ref:`deployment`) in a different directory.
Then, copy the following content from the old installation to the new
one:
* The :file:`media` directory
* The directory containing RRD files if you use the :ref:`stats` plugin
Don't copy the old :file:`settings.py` file, just keep the new one and
modify it (see :ref:`database` and :ref:`timezone_lang`).
Migrate your database (see :ref:`latestversion`).
Finally, check the :ref:`amavis_frontend`, :ref:`postfix_ar` and
:ref:`stats` chapters (depending on those you use) because the
provided cron scripts have been changed, you must update the way you
call them.

First, decompress the new tarball at the same location than your
current installation. Then, check if the new version you're installing
requires a migration.

===========================================================
.. note::
This version requires at least django 1.3. Make sure to update your
version before starting to migrate.
.. note::
Many files have been renamed/removed for this version. I recommend
that you backup important files (*settings.py*, etc.) elsewhere
(ie. :file:`/tmp` for example). Then, remove the :file:`modoboa` directory,
extract the new tarball at the same place, rename the new directory
to :file:`modoboa` and copy the files you've just backup into it.
.. note::
If the first super administrator you created is named ``admin``,
its password will be changed to ``password`` at the end of this
upgrade. Don't forget to modify it!
