Hey, i just did a update from 1.7.2 to 1.7.4 on my Synology DS215j. Seems to work perfectly fine. I performed the following steps:
Thanks for the answer. When gitea is installed for the first time, the internal user gitea will be created. What is the standard password for that user? I need this in order to perform a backup. Thanks in advance
I managed to switch to the gitea user, but the dump command doesn't work. It throws the following error:
Failed to connect to database: Unknown database type:
I am using MariaDB 10 with Version 10.3.7-0051
Any suggestions?
I can save all these files manually, but I would prefer the dump
command.
I have all the repositories on /volume1/git/gitea/
, are they save if I install the new version or should I back them up separately?
I am using the same MariaDB Version and did not get an error. Perhaps ask/look at the gitea forum? In my case the repos are stored in /usr/local/gitea/gitea/gitea-repositories and there were no issues after the update. I am still testing gitea so i was not too worried about the update failing. i am not shure what happens when you update your version....
I made a manual backup and everything else worked just fine. Thank you for the help! Can be closed now

No. Because it's not clear what did you do manually, but this is common theme and all search engines link here. Do not make trash from theme. We already have lot of dirty pages around Internet like a spam that have no structured and useful.
For example, right now I have old gitea on MariaDB10 compiled and installed by me few years ago. According some video on YT. Apologize all of us made it so. I don't even remember folder where it was installed. And I don't understand where is what. What in DataBase, what in files. That's why I ask about step-by-step to-do list for upgrade gitea on Synology.
Or other idea was migrate to Docker updatable gitea. But it ask me about data base on first run and I am not sure that it will not be deleted or damaged. I prefer use already fulled database instead manually copy-past from old one to new. May be some have such expirience like migrate from "compiled, normally not upgradeble gitea" to "upgadable docker's gitea" on Synology DSM?
VitaliyAT, create backup - follow steps mentioned here https://github.com/flipswitchingmonkey/gitea-spk/issues/29
then:
cd /usr/local/gitea/gitea/
./gitea dump -c /usr/local/gitea/gitea/custom/conf/app.ini
this dump includes your custom conf file. Move dump file to somewhere safe.
And then run script mentioned in my issue from console, to update Gitea. https://github.com/flipswitchingmonkey/gitea-spk/issues/30
Just save this as script.sh in file manager, then navigate to that folder using SSH and run
./script.sh
dont forget to change lines 24 and 34 depending on your CPU architecture.
This should work, if you have gitea installed from package center as .spk.
Not working good:
:/usr/local/gitea/gitea$ ./gitea dump -c /usr/local/gitea/gitea/custom/conf/app.ini 2020/07/20 10:04:39 ...s/setting/setting.go:671:NewContext() [F] Failed to create '/var/services/homes/tester1/.ssh': mkdir /var/services/homes: permission denied
OK, let's try it through sudo:
2020/07/20 10:04:45 ...s/setting/setting.go:831:NewContext() [F] Expect user 'gitea' but current user is: root
Hmm, restart session and try login as gitea user
Access denied
OK, let's give gitea user rights for using SSH. Go to DSM Control Panel Users - no I have not gitea user at all.
Do you have any suggestions?

Change to user gitea in terminal using
su - gitea
if its not working, do the following:
sudo -i
cd /etc
vi group
administration -> add gitea to that group, just type gitea among other users there
save it
vi passwd
/var/packages/Gitea/target -change to-> /var/packages/Gitea/target/gitea
/sbin/nologin target -change to-> /bin/sh
save it
after this, You should be able to change user to "gitea" by
su - gitea
and do the backup as mentioned higher in this topic
1st part is OK - add user to group and create dump... But for some reasons dump file size is jusk 4kilobites. My database not less ten 100Mb. Apologize, it's not the correct dump, isn't it?
Why so? What can it be?

First of all login to SSH, change to root
sudo -i
than, change to gitea
su - gitea
than, go to
cd /usr/local/gitea/gitea/
now, try to create buckup without custom conf
./gitea dump
if it works, in /usr/local/gitea/gitea there will be file named gitea-dump-some-numbers
after that, I just move dump file somewhere where I can download it from DSM
mv gitea-dump-... /volume1/homes/.../
Just tried, works fine, my backup is around 50mb
1) According this https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/backup-and-restore/page I should see something like:
2016/12/27 22:32:09 Creating tmp work dir: /tmp/gitea-dump-417443001 2016/12/27 22:32:09 Dumping local repositories.../home/git/gitea-repositories 2016/12/27 22:32:22 Dumping database... 2016/12/27 22:32:22 Packing dump files... 2016/12/27 22:32:34 Removing tmp work dir: /tmp/gitea-dump-417443001 2016/12/27 22:32:34 Finish dumping in file gitea-dump-1482906742.zip
But I see just:
$ ./gitea dump -c /usr/local/gitea/gitea/custom/conf/app.ini 2020/07/20 15:18:08 ...dules/setting/git.go:83:newGit() [I] Git Version: 2.26.2, Wire Protocol Version 2 Enabled
2) Found folder and file in /tmp folder... But it has a bad structure. Inside it has no any app.ini or any files in the root folder. Just database folder, size around 1Gb 3) If I try dump second time - I found other folder with gitea-repo.zip with size just 4kb (empty inside)

Here is GIF, where I show you how to create dump, how it should look and where the dump is when its ready.
Hey and thanks for the great work with the synology package. I'm running Gitea 1.6.1 on my Synology Diskstation and I would like to upgrade to the latest release of Gitea. How can I do that without risking any data loss on the Diskstation? Do I just have to stop the running instance of Gitea and install a "new" package manually?
Thanks and best regards, @AljoLe
