      Hello,
      Is it possible to switch to Beta version?
      the current version is 2.5, but I want to update to 2.6 Beta, so I will be able to migrate my discussion board from Digital Ocean to cloudron.

        @alkomy no, but you may want to stop the upgrades on DO and wait for Cloudron to match.

          @alkomy Per https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-version-2-6/151394, it will be released Nov 30. So, just hold on for two weeks and we will have the cloudron package available after they release it.

            @girish Great.

            I updated the DO version app.yml to stable version, (Downgraded), then backed up.
            When I tried to restore to cloudron fresh installation it failed. (attached)
            even both are 2.5.4 now.

            What I will do is:

            • wait for stable version 2.6. update DO app (the live version of our discussion board).
            • Install a test version on cloudron (2.6 stable after you update the image).
              then will see what will happen.!

                Yeah..
                I will move from 2.6.0beat7 to 2.6.0 stable ->> backup
                Then will restore that backup into cloudron image.
                Will try it today & give you feedback.

                  Restore completed.

                  I changed the version to "stable", so there were no downgrade (2.6.0beta7 ->>2.6.0).
                  rest is simple, (here is steps for anyone who want to migrate)

                  • just install discourse on cloudron,
                  • set a demo subdomain to avoid (down time),
                  • upload backup file, start restoring process.
                  • once restore completed u will logout, signin again with your admin account (The one you use on migrated).
                  • go to cloudron dashboard & change to to the real domain. update it from domain register if you use manual domain.
                  • be sure in discourse dashboard that the notification email domain is OK.
                  • it will take around 1 minute with almost zero down time.
                  • to be sure everything is OK, shut down the old server/vps.
