Perhaps I will add some more steps to preserve the statistics. Since it is a 1.5 install, reading the Dspace documentation, it seems you will have to convert (stats-log-converter) and import (stats.-log-importer) the existing log files (i must confess, never did that) But at least, have a backup of the log directory
well, it was just an idea.

Hilton and Bram,

Thank you for the information. If I understand correctly, I can build the new Linux server and install 3.2 version with dependencies. Then, I need to install all upgrades on the old version and then export the data (HOW?) and move it to the old version.

Hi Eileen

I was waiting for Bram to reply.
I have more details about using Linux for DSpace here: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Dspace As far as upgrading AND changing platforms, the answer would be that you export all the contents from the old version and simply import them to the new platform. However the facility to export a whole archive does not exist with DSpace 1.5.2 as far as I know.
Somebody on the list may be able to help you or @mire.

But you can go ahead with the guide to build the new platform, ready to receive content. As far as automated tasks go, see: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Daily_Admin for more details.

    Dear Eileen,

    it's quite challenging to give a comprehensive answer because of
    the many different aspects involved. I will try to start with a
    few pointers, feel free to follow up with more specific questions.

    *General information about DSpace upgrades*

    The general documentation for upgrading a DSpace installation can
    be found here:
    https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Upgrading+a+DSpace+Installation

    An upgrade from 1.5.2 to the most recent version, 3.2 will entail
    that you need to run the database update scripts for each
    intermediate version.

    *Migrating from a Windows based installation to Linux*

    A major area of work associated with your migration will be the
    installation and configuration of the dependencies DSpace needs
    in order to be installed and operated.

    The installation documentation at
    https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Installation gives a
    good overview of the installation of these dependencies.

    One other area that I can think of, which is definitely different
    in Linux compared to Windows, is how scheduled tasks are
    configured. Information about these "cron" jobs is also covered
    in the installation documentation:
    
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Installation#Installation-'cron'Jobs
    
<https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Installation#Installation-%27cron%27Jobs>

    I realize this was rather vague and general, but I still hope
    this helps to put you in the right direction! In case you are
    considering outsourcing the actual upgrade work, @mire could
    provide you with such services.

    with kindest regards,

    Bram Luyten

        We have a DSpace instance installed on Windows at version
        1.5.2 and we
        want to migrate that to a Redhat Linux platform and upgrade
        to the
        current version. Can anyone give me a basic idea of how to
        approach that?
