I had some success testing 500-to-510 upgrade script against rollerweblogger.org and blogs.apache.org.
With rollerweblgger.org, I had to use a custom version of the script because the schema there is a mix of 5.0 and 5.1 stuff. Everything went fine and blogging features seem to be working. With blogs.apache.org, I did the database upgrade manually, as I expect the Infrastructure will do and the migration script hit an error and exited with it hit that drop-index call for "folder_namefolderid_uq." I was able to omit that statement and get the rest of the upgrade to run successfully. I added a comment to the upgrade script template to note that the drop may fail, just so folks know it might be a problem -- it won't bea problem for people who choose the automatic install, which is what we encourage in the install guide. I had to do some work to upgrade the two ASF themes used on blogs.apache.org, but after that, things looked good and I think we'll be ready when the blogs.apache.org chooses to upgrade. I'll upgrade rollerweblogger.org to 5.1 tomorrow and report back later. - Dave On Sat, Aug 16, 2014 at 10:09 AM, Glen Mazza <glen.ma...@gmail.com> wrote: > OK, now I'm done with the docs too, so done with everything.
