Re: [Setup] restoring a Plone site

[W. Anderson]

Thank you everyone very much for the helpful information. The one point made by Gauthier Bastien about using Rel 4.3.1r1 needs clarification.  Today, September 12, 2013,  I noticed on Plone download for "latest" stable release, the 4.3.1r1 UnifiedInstaller that I am using  is the only one with the "r1" extension. The OS X and Windows releases list "4.3.1" only. Do anyone have any idea why this is so?  I would not like to think that the Plone organization has more resources for and/or is putting more attention and resources on OS X and Windows OS at the expense of Linux/UNIX/BSD.

Anyway, maybe you should consider moving to 4.3.1 at least (no more rc1) or even 4.3.2 that is now available.

Anderson a écrit : I am about to "restore" an older Plone 3.1 website to newly installed Plone 4.3.1r1 based website - both on Linux - using the same  but updated Quintagroup 'Schools' theme. The original site theme was installed via unzip into Products directory, while the new (latest) theme was installed via Diazo. I had saved the following files from older site: Data.fs Data.fs.index Data.fs.old data.fs.tmp The new Plone install has a Data.fs.lock (text) file not present in older Plone version. Is this significant? Do I replace the Data.fs file as well as Data.fs.index files? And will the different types of install and versions of theme make site unusable? What other steps are required to complete a successful migration?
