[Phamm] Upgrading from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17

[Webhabitat Admin]

Yes it is and no it isn't.

YES: if you only change / adapt the acl's.

NO: if you want to take into the new functionalities offered like the 
calendar integration it isn't that simple. Why: phamm changes the user 
information but doesn't take into account the ldap modifications for 
additional schema functionalities.

Example: you upgrade and add the davical schema and modify a (existing) 
user and make him / her a davical user you will get an error since the 
davical profile isn't there. You must this manually before you can 
manage it via phamm.

It's the same issue as for creating a domain without ftp access and 
enabling afterwards.

This is one of the issues phamm needs to address. When adding an 
additional functionality (even if it is included in the base version 
installed) the functionality has to be treaded as a modification / 
change taking into account the necessary modifications and not trying to 
modify an existing profile.

So basically yes, without any problem unless you want to have existing 
users be expanded to an additional feature like davical access.

Kind regards,

Miguel
