<liri> there's not going to be any script/web upgrader
<liri> unless you want to contribute something :)
<kreg> manual steps work for me too. just wanna know what they are
<kreg> is supplying a web upgrader alot of work? i wouldn't know.
<kreg> we use this other php/mysql tool called CitrusDB
<liri> well it's work and there are priorities, currently it's not in
any of them
<liri> right
<kreg> everytime he ships a new copy of the web front end, he supplies a
/upgrade.php tool to scan the db and find out what version the db
belonged to. then upgrades it.
<liri> I talked with Paul (it's author) about an integration between
citrusdb and dalo for billing, he pretty much turned it down
<liri> too bad, you could have had a MUCH more better system now :)
<kreg> lol
<kreg> that's funny. Paul's usually pretty active guy
<liri> good to know, I'll look it up and maybe adopt it
<liri> maybe you should bug him again :)
<kreg> i'm not surprised to not see an upgrader. just a comfort for us
non dev folk.
<kreg> but i can do manual work all the same. just dunno what to do
unless told.
<kreg> i can do it. not sure he's a freenoder though

I remember talking to Liran about this last year,
http://www.mail-archive.com/citrusdb-***@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00299.html

The account activation script creates a file, that ideally would be
created daily, of who to add, delete, enable, and disable, with the
account attributes indicated by the activation string. Someone who
knows the structure of the free radius sql could probably create
fairly straightforward script that goes through that file and inserts,
updates, or deletes from the freeradius sql database directly. This
would bypass any GUI like dalo, though I guess you could view the
results of these modifications in dalo. My only use of radius is old
school text files, so i'm not familiar with their database schema.

The new development version of citrus (1.3) does away with the account
activation link in the web application in favor of a php script called
statusupdate that is meant to be run daily in a cron, to update the
status of accounts, and create the appropriate add, delete, enable, or
disable entry in that days citrus accounts file for those accounts
based on their billing history.
