Things know to go wrong in the upload:

I've done the CF5 -> 6.1 thing a couple of times now & here's what I've
found you have to watch out for. They are not bugs just things worth noting:

<cfset url = "http://www.domain.com";>

used to work in 5 and under. This will bomb in 6. Same goes for any other
scopes (form, cgi, etc...). Seems obvious but can be a pain.

SELECT max(dateField) in mysql will return binary data in some cases. SELECT
ltrim(max(dateField)) will fix it. Data in blob fields will also be returned
as binary data which makes sense but is different to 5.

Invalid email addresses in cfmail will result in errors. In 5 cfmail would
run with anything in the two and from fields.

Allow some time to recreate all your datasources. I have not seen the
migration ever work properly with mysql datasources. You have to delete and
recreate each one, even if it looks like its got them.


Cheers
