Hi All, OK I think I have a solution to my problem which I hope results in a correctly upgrade database. The last piece of the puzzle, is what are the "content" files and what do you need to do with them? Well I guessed that you are meant to do this:
rt-setup-database --action insert --datafile ./etc/upgrade/3.8.1/content --dba root for each file (in order). So my end solution would be: 1) install RT 3.8 to new dir 2) going thro each directory in order in etc/upgrade apply the files as necessary until 3.8.0. schema files are applied by redirecting into a mysql session and contect files are loaded with rt-setup-database (as above). 3) run schema.mysql-4.0-4.1.pl and apply the resulting SQL to the database 4) apply the final directories in etc/upgrade as above to take to version 3.8.1 Bit more of an effort than a single command, but it seems good to me (ignorance is bliss ;) ). thanks, Andy. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. _______________________________________________ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: sa...@bestpractical.com Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.
