Evolution 1.0 SP2 Installation Notes

Evolution 1.0 Service Pack 2 supports the following installation scenarios:

• New installation. Click here to download the Evolution 1.0 SP2.
• Upgrade from an existing Evolution 1.0 Service Pack 1.

Upgrade Notes

If you need to upgrade from a version of Evolution prior to 1.0 SP1 or from a version of Community Server, then you must first upgrade to Evolution 1.0 SP1, then apply SP2. The migration tools for Evolution 1.0 SP1 are well-proven and stable; this is the smoothest path for you to move to Evolution 1.0 SP2. You can find detailed instructions at http://docswiki.communityserver.com/wikis/product_documentation/upgrading-from-community-server-to-evolution.aspx.

Applying Evolution Service Pack 2 to an Existing Evolution 1.0 SP1 Installation

1. Back up your database and your site files. Although Telligent does not anticipate any problems with the service pack installation, you should always back up your database and site files as a precaution.
2. Create a folder on your local drive or server into which you can download the service pack.
3. Download the latest Evolution service pack from http://get.communityserver.com/download/moredownloads.aspx and extract the service pack's contents to the folder you created in Step 2.
4. Copy all the files in the /Web/bin/ of the download working folder to the /bin/ folder of your Evolution installation.
5. Copy the file Web/Themes/evolution/Hubs/accessdenied.aspx from your service pack folder to the /Themes/evolution/Hubs folder in your Evolution installation.

If you are running SQL 2005, then run the SqlScripts/cs_UpdateSchemaAndProceedures.sql file. You can run this with tools such as the osql command line tool or SQL Management Studio.

SQL Server 2000 Users

At this time, the SQL patches included in SP2 are NOT compatible with SQL Server 2000. You can apply the binary updates and get the latest bug fixes; however, the performance changes in SP2's SQL scripts have not been ported back to SQL 2000.

If you have upgraded your Evolution install running on SQL Server 2000 to Evolution 1.0  SP1, then you can apply the binary files over the top of that installation.
