This file contains instructions for updating your Bear-based Drupal site.

Updating Bear

Composer

If you've installed Bear using our Composer-based project template, all you need to do is:

  • cd /path/to/YOUR_PROJECT
  • composer update
  • Run drush updatedb or visit update.php to perform automatic database updates.
  • Perform any necessary manual updates (see below).

Tarball

Do not use drush pm-update or drush up to update Bear! Bear includes specific, vetted, pre-tested versions of modules, and occasionally patches for those modules (and Drupal core). Drush's updater totally disregards all of that and may therefore break your site.

To update Bear safely:

  1. Download the latest version of Bear from https://www.drupal.org/project/bear and extract it.
  2. Replace your profiles/bear directory with the one included in the fresh copy of Bear.
  3. Replace your core directory with the one included in the fresh copy Bear.
  4. Visit update.php or run drush updatedb to perform any necessary database updates.
