Ahh, thanks Anton. That's the critical piece of information I was missing: I didn't realise easy_install was not an RB but a Python tool. I think, Christian, I may have given you the wrong impression as to how serious the problem is. So, it's all going significantly better now: I've upgraded RB

Ok, so I made the cardinal sin of not reading everything you sent. I guess what I need to know is whether that error looks like migrating this site is the best option or whether to go with generating a new site and linking it to the old database. Thanks again for everyone's help. On Sep 13,

Hi, rb-site is provided by the ReviewBoard package, which you should install by doing easy_install -U ReviewBoard. You shouldn't need to touch the tatballs. I don't know why it was angry about setup.py, but perhaps it's just too old. Best way to back up the database is by doing an SQL dump.
