Einen Patch aus GitHub installieren
As a rule, new installation/update packages or an EGroupware docker container are “built” approximately every 4 weeks. If this is too long or if you want to test it in advance, fixed files are available for download in GitHub.
Please note:
- single commits can build on each other, i.e. you can usually only install one commit as a patch that only modifies files that have not been changed since the maintenance release.
- Changes to JavaScript or CSS files only work if Minifying is switched off under Admin >> Admin >> Configuration of the application.
Procedure
You need the URL of the commit (preferred from the 19.1 branch). E.G.
To this URL you have to append .patch and execute the following commands:
export patch=https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/commit/601cf51b7febdf97d2bb0460dd47eeba12449920.patch
cd /etc/egroupware-docker
curl $patch | docker exec -i egroupware patch -p1 -d /usr/share/egroupware-sources
# you might have to rebuild JavaScript, if the patch changes .ts or .js files:
docker exec egroupware bash -c "cd /usr/share/egroupware-sources; npm run build"
docker-compose restart egroupware
If something in the container breaks down (e.g. conflict when installing the patch) you can simply restore the original state of the container with the following commands:
cd /etc/egroupware-docker
docker-compose stop
docker-compose rm -f
docker-compose up -d
For EGroupware <19.1 and installations without Docker download the fixed file and replace the file in the EGroupware installation accordingly. After that a restart of the web server and a deletion of the web browser cache is useful/necessary.
The files to be exchanged should be saved or renamed. This makes it easy to undo the changes.
