Description
6.2 has received a new "core updater" mechanism in the Install Tool. And with it, a new setting provided for hosters who want to disable this feature. This has to be documented "somewhere" (most probably the "Installation Guide". I.e. the following:
Core Updater Tool¶
The Install Tool provides a tool to update the TYPO3 Core itself under "Important Actions". For this to work, the following setup is required:
- Only works under Unix and MacOS (symlink support)
- typo3_src must be a symlink
- This symlink needs to be writable (and deletable) by the Webserver user
- Document Root needs to be writable
- One path above document root ("../") needs to be writable (new directories allowed to be created)
- "tar" command available for extracting the core package
Disabling the Core Updater¶
To disable the Core Updater functionality altogether (in order to avoid users using it in the Install Tool, i.e. if you have your own update mechanism), you can set this environment variable:
TYPO3_DISABLE_CORE_UPDATER=1For example in Apache:
SetEnv TYPO3_DISABLE_CORE_UPDATER 1This will disable the button in the Install Tool and all related functionality in the Install Tool.
