The database doesn't get automatically upgraded, but old databases will usually work just fine, so your problem is likely not database related. You need to run manually upgrade the database schema.

Hi,

Currently we have RT running at version

on a Debian etch server.

We have a nice new Debian server set up running Debian lenny.  And we've installed RT on that server from the repository - currently version

ii  request-tracker3.6                3.6.7-5+lenny4

Any pointers on how we move the data from the old server to the new one.

I was told that it was just a question of copying the database over to the new server and connecting to it using the conf file.  Then the database would automatically get updated when it was first accessed - but we've run into a problem whereby the web server fails to start

I will start looking through the docs etc but thought I'd ask for some pointers first.

Thanks,
