You have documentation on http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade. 4.1.2 to 7.4.3 should be OK but it all depends: * what modifications you have on standard pages/templates * what API you are using (we usually don't delete APIs but you might need to install something that have been moved as optional extension for example because it's not maintained anymore or makes more sense as extension) * Colibri skin has been removed so either you install it or you move to Flamingo skin (Flamingo is way better and Colibri might not fully work on 7.4.3) Also you might want to look at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/ContentOrganization since the whole space/page/parent organization changed in 7.2. > > > - Can I migrate directly to version 4.1.2 to 7.4.3?
