At first please make backups of your ownCloud directories before migrating. :) 2. Then I stoppend apache2 just to be sure that ownCloud does not do anything in the background while I am not done with my migration. 3. I removed the current package with "apt-get remove owncloud". 4. Then I added their repository and and ran "apt-get install owncloud" to get the latest 7.0.4 package. (GPG key seems to be expired!) 5. I moved the content of /etc/owncloud into /var/www/owncloud/config/ and the content of /var/lib/owncloud/data/ into /var/www/owncloud/data/ 6. Adjust the paths in /var/www/owncloud/config/config.php 7. Restart apache2 and let ownCloud finish the update. Optional: 8. If you have set up a cron job for ownCloud's background tasks you should also adjust it according to this description: http://doc.owncloud.org/server/7.0/admin_manual/configuration/background_jobs.html 8.1 Figure out how to get out of this hellish joe editor. 8.2 Set nano as your new default editor. ;-) The file permissions seem to be fine and the htaccess files are also looking good. But I still have to take a closer look over them. I still want to thank the maintainers for their work on this backport. Imho ownCloud has become usable for me for the first time with version 7.0, because during my previous attempts I stumbled on heavy issues pretty early. Therefore it just feels like a solid "1.0" release for me and I can't imagine that maintaining and packaging such a rapidly developing piece of software is any fun for stable distributions like Debian. :) Greetings, Hakan
