무버블타입 업그레이드(Movabletype Upgrage)

기존 4.21에서 4.23으로 Upgrade를 했다.

Upgrade가 된건지 아닌진 Upgrade후 관리자페이지에 오니 Upgrade 되었다고해서 알겠지만 확연히 달라진바는 없다.

Upgrade 방법은 엄청쉬웠다.

단순히 4.23버전을 다운받아 ftp로 webserver에 upload한 뒤
특정 디렉토리에 압축 풀고(unzip MTOS-4.23-en.zip -d ./tmp)
기존 설치 폴더에 압축 된 파일을 그대로 overwirte한것이 전부다.( cp -fR ./tmp ./mt)

그 후 관리자페이지로 로그인하면 Upgrade Success라고 표시된다.

워낙 4.21과 4.23의 차이가 미미해서인지 난 아직 못느끼고 있지만 어쨌든 이런식으로 설치하면 된다.

It's easy~

ps. 홈페이지를 찾아보니 역시나 Upgrade 된게 별로 없다.

Today we announce the release of Movable Type 4.23. This mandatory security release is recommended for all users (see update advisor below), and fixes a number of bugs in 4.21. Review the change log for full details on all changes in this new version.

Movable Type Update Advisor: Version 4.23

• Release Type: Security Release. This update fixes a potential vulnerability which has not yet been exploited in the wild.
• Mandatory? Yes, this is a mandatory security upgrade.
• Performance Implications: None.

ps. Upgrade 방법은 아래와 같다. 별거 없다. Just Overwirte!

      단, 나는 4.x이라 이렇지만 2.x, 3.x일때는 뭔가 다른 이슈가 있을거다.

How to Upgrade Movable Type

1. Make a backup of your database - Whenever you are making a change to your system such as this, it is always considered wise to make a backup of your data just in case you need to undo anything you might have done.

2. Download Movable Type - Once you have backed up your system, download Movable Type to your web server.

3. Unzip Movable Type - Using your preferred unzipping software, unpack the Movable Type archive onto your file system.

4. Copy Movable Type's Files Over Your Old Installation - Copy all of Movable Type's files over your old installation of Movable Type.

   • Alternatively you may install Movable Type's files into a fresh installation - this has the benefit of giving yourself a clean start and will remove any "cruft" that has accumulated over the years. Here's how:

   Assuming Movable Type is currently installed in /path/to/cgi-bin/mt, you will need to rename the directory containing your existing MT installation to /path/to/cgi-bin/mt.backup. Then create a fresh install of the recently downloaded version into /path/to/cgi-bin/mt. Finally copy your mt-config.cgi from your old installation into the new one.

5. Consult "Additional Upgrade Resources" - In this guide you will find a section devoted to a list of things that everyone upgrading should be aware of. Read this section carefully and make any changes applicable to you.

6. Login to Movable Type - The first time you access Movable Type, the system will detect the new version of MT installed on your system and take you through the automated process of upgrading your database. When this process is complete, you will be able to begin using Movable Type immediately.
