emoncms upgrade v5 to v6 - using MySql as database engine - running on Ubuntu

Submitted by kaiyer on Wed, 30/10/2013 - 19:25

I am upgrading from v5 to v6 based on the instructions at

I set up the default engine as MySQL using

$default_engine = Engine::MYSQL;

Now when I get to Step 5

I cannot get to the Admin page. The instruction asks me to use the admin user id and password. I do not remember having one for emoncms. I checked the users table on the mysql database and did not find anything that resembled an admin.

How can I upgrade the database to v6 from v5?

How did you login to emoncms when you used v5?

I figured it out. Had to go into mysql and in the users table looked at the admin field. If flag is set to 1 its the admin account.

It was smooth sailing from there. v6 work beautifully. I am running it on a t1.micro session on AWS assigned to an elastic IP.
