Hi Glenn,
I think the answer was that you'll have to run the database
update/upgrade step included in the 1.4.2-->1.5 documentation.
Good luck!
Sue

1.5.1 without first installing 1.5?
A somewhat related question I hope...
If I want to move from a server that currently is running 1.4.2 to a new
server would the best approach be to install a clean 1.5.1 on the new
server and then move the data over? If so, are there instructions for
how to migrate content from a 1.4.2 instance to a 1.5.1 instance?

Sue,
You should be able to upgrade from 1.4.2 to 1.5.1, assuming you make
sure to perform all of the 1.5.x database upgrades. So, even though
you are upgrading to 1.5.1, make sure to *first* perform the upgrade
steps laid out for 1.4.2->1.5.0.
For DSpace, we make it a point that minor upgrades (1.5.0->1.5.1) only
involve code changes (i.e. the database structure will never change
during these upgrades). Major upgrades (e.g. 1.4.2->1.5.0) will often
involve changes to the database structure.
Hope that helps,
- Tim
