The two are compatible both ways. GeoServer 2.1.x : Stay at 104, move to 119 (minor improvements), or move to the 1.2 series of H2
The 1.2 series creates new databases in the "page store" format, which the older version cannot read. But existing databases will be kept in the old format, so in most cases you would be able to test GS 2.1.x and revert, even if you forgot to backup your data directory. -Arne ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
