I have a Bitnami native installed version 2.0 of DF on a Debian VM.

I am attempting to upgrade to the latest release of DF following the instructions at [https://wiki.dreamfactory.com/DreamFactory/Bitnami\_Linux/Upgrades](https://wiki.dreamfactory.com/DreamFactory/Bitnami_Linux/Upgrades)

When I reach step 6 of the upgrade which is Migrate the system data using the command  
$ …/…/…/php/bin/php artisan migrate --seed I get the following error:  
\*\*Could not open input file: artisan

Any advice on this would be much appreciated - thank you
