| # Upgrade from Gogs
 | |
| 
 | |
| Gogs, version 0.9.146 and older, can be easily migrated to Gitea.
 | |
| 
 | |
| There are some basic steps to follow. On a Linux system run as the Gogs user:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Create a Gogs backup with `gogs backup`. This creates `gogs-backup-[timestamp].zip` file
 | |
|   containing all important Gogs data. You would need it if you wanted to move to the `gogs` back later.
 | |
| * Download the file matching the destination platform from the [downloads page](https://dl.gitea.io/gitea).
 | |
|  It should be `1.0.x` version. Migrating from `gogs` to any other version is impossible.
 | |
| * Put the binary at the desired install location.
 | |
| * Copy `gogs/custom/conf/app.ini` to `gitea/custom/conf/app.ini`.
 | |
| * Copy custom `templates, public` from `gogs/custom/` to `gitea/custom/`.
 | |
| * For any other custom folders, such as `gitignore, label, license, locale, readme` in
 | |
|   `gogs/custom/conf`, copy them to `gitea/custom/options`.
 | |
| * Copy `gogs/data/` to `gitea/data/`. It contains issue attachments and avatars.
 | |
| * Verify by starting Gitea with `gitea web`.
 | |
| * Enter Gitea admin panel on the UI, run `Rewrite '.ssh/authorized_keys' file`.
 | |
| * If custom or config path was changed, run `Rewrite all update hook of repositories`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Change gogs specific information:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Rename `gogs-repositories/` to `gitea-repositories/`
 | |
| * Rename `gogs-data/` to `gitea-data/`
 | |
| * In `gitea/custom/conf/app.ini` change:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Upgrading to most recent `gitea` version:
 | |
| After successful migration from `gogs` to `gitea 1.0.x` it is possible to upgrade to the recent `gitea` version.
 | |
| Simply download the file matching the destination platform from the [downloads page](https://dl.gitea.io/gitea)
 | |
| and replace the binary.
 | |
| 
 | |
| FROM:
 | |
| ```
 | |
| [database]
 | |
| PATH = /home/:USER/gogs/data/:DATABASE.db
 | |
| [attachment]
 | |
| PATH = /home/:USER/gogs-data/attachments
 | |
| [picture]
 | |
| AVATAR_UPLOAD_PATH = /home/:USER/gogs-data/avatars
 | |
| [log]
 | |
| ROOT_PATH = /home/:USER/gogs/log
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| TO:
 | |
| ```
 | |
| [database]
 | |
| PATH = /home/:USER/gitea/data/:DATABASE.db
 | |
| [attachment]
 | |
| PATH = /home/:USER/gitea-data/attachments
 | |
| [picture]
 | |
| AVATAR_UPLOAD_PATH = /home/:USER/gitea-data/avatars
 | |
| [log]
 | |
| ROOT_PATH = /home/:USER/gitea/log
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Verify by starting Gitea with `gitea web`
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Troubleshooting
 | |
| 
 | |
| * If errors are encountered relating to custom templates in the `gitea/custom/templates`
 | |
|   folder, try moving the templates causing the errors away one by one. They may not be
 | |
|   compatible with Gitea or an update.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Add Gitea to startup on Unix
 | |
| 
 | |
| Update the appropriate file from [gitea/contrib](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/tree/master/contrib)
 | |
| with the right environment variables.
 | |
| 
 | |
| For distros with systemd:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Copy the updated script to `/etc/systemd/system/gitea.service`
 | |
| * Add the service to the startup with: `sudo systemctl enable gitea`
 | |
| * Disable old gogs startup script: `sudo systemctl disable gogs`
 | |
| 
 | |
| For distros with SysVinit:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Copy the updated script to `/etc/init.d/gitea`
 | |
| * Add the service to the startup with: `sudo rc-update add gitea`
 | |
| * Disable old gogs startup script: `sudo rc-update del gogs`
