If you have just a few accounts on the server, I think the better way is to dump your database as field inserts INSERT INTO table (field, field, field) VALUES (val, val, val); reinstall and reconfigure server and load the dump. Missing field values will be filled with defaults and you may trim the SQL with sed/vim for the rest of the problems arising. Just load the dump in transaction (after BEGIN;) to easily back up when something is wrong. Using this method it is also possible to change database backend. The UPGRADE document is for the ones using the latest jabberd release. It would be very complicated to prepare upgrade procedure for every combination of from-version to-version of every jabberd ever released. -- Tomasz Sterna Instant Messaging & EDI Consultant Open Source Developer http://tomasz.sterna.tv/ http://www.xiaoka.com/ -- To unsubscribe send a mail to jabberd2+unsubscr...@lists.xiaoka.com
