I was able to manage with these tips and get the installation done. Thank you so much Christian
When we upgrade the RB from 1.7.9 to 2.5.x version does the RB mysql tables get upgraded as well ? Because my initial RB was running on 1.7.9 and upgraded it to 2.5.4 using easy_install. Now I installed RB2.5.4 and trying to import directly the DB from mysql dump. On Wednesday, April 5, 2017 at 1:42:41 PM UTC-7, Christian Hammond wrote: > > Ah, this is the problem.
