Hello,

i want to update my Jomsocial site from version 3.2.0.7 to 3.2.1.1. But what is a good procedure? Do i need to uninstall Jomsocial component first and install the latest version as decribe in the blog? Or can i use iJoomla do upgrade to the latest version?
Thank you

Hi, Real.

Please, follow this steps:

0. Make a safe copy of your whole system (files and database)
1. Browse to Backend -> Extensions -> Extension Manager -> Manage
2. Search all extensions using filter "com"
3. Uninstall all JomSocial related extensions
4. Search all extensions using filter "jom"
5. Uninstall all JomSocial related extensions
6. Download latest JomSocial package from here: www.jomsocial.com/component/digistore/licenses
7. Unzip it
8. Install com_community package via Joomla! installer
9. Follow installation steps
10. Install iJoomla installer for future version check and upgrade.

After that you'll need to do a menu fix also:

When you upgrading JomSocial menu items in JomSocial toolbar lost "connection" with component. Joomla! mark them as disabled and with notice: "Component 'com_community' does not exist". In order to fix it please follow this instruction:

- click on menu item in JomSocial menu in order to edit it
- when in edit mode don't change anything
- save
- menu item should be fixed
- do it for every JomSocial related menu items (if needed) in all other menus

- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

2. Search all extensions using filter "com" < -- do you mean jomsocial component?

4. Search all extensions using filter "jom" < - do you mean all jomsocial modules? like Community - active groups, activity stream events module etc etc?

This is not really clear for me, what do i uninstall ? and how about plugins?

hi, Real.

Literary: type "com". prntscr.com/45tj3m
Then just check ALL extensions which title indicates that they are related with JomSocial.

Same thing for "jom" : prntscr.com/45tjed

Hi, Real.

iJoomla Installer also could upgrade JomSocial... but sometimes (depend from server) it's better to uninstall first. You may first try to upgrade via iJoomla Installer - if there will be no issue, you can stay with that.
