Upgrade Magento to a specific version (not the lat

Question

I know that I can upgrade to the latest version with the following command:

./mage install http://connect20.magentocommerce.com/community Mage_All_Latest --force

Is there a way to set a different package name instead of Mage_All_Latest. I have tried also to install via ./mage install-file but I got an error that the file was not valid.

Answer 1

Mage install is used to install packages, so this does not work.

./mage install-file /path/to/full/mage/release

There does not seem to be a version argument for ./mage install, so I believe you need install each package separately.

You can download package archives from here: http://ext.topmage.com/.

Find your version http://ext.topmage.com/extensions/8a/a0/Mage_All_Latest/

Open the package.xml file and see what package dependencies are required.

e.g.

<package>
    <name>Mage_Core_Modules</name>
    <channel>community</channel>
    <min>1.9.2.2</min>
    <max>1.9.2.2</max>
</package>

Then download each package for your version from http://ext.topmage.com/ somewhere locally on your system e.g. /usr/local/src

Then run the following for each package.

$ ./mage install-file /usr/local/src/Mage_Core_Modules-1.9.2.2.tgz --force

I also had to delete ./pkginfo/Mage_All_Latest.txt and hack ./downloader/lib/Mage/Connect/Validator.php to prevent file 'already exists' error.
