The TracMigrate page may also be helpful. I tried to cleanup the steps on that page a little while ago, it was originally written by a community contributor. I'd like to improve it more, but haven't had the occasion to run through a platform migration. If you have specific questions or see omissions, please comment, as I could use your feedback to improve the TracMigrate page. https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracMigrate#TracMigration https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracBackup I recommend the following strategy: * Move to the new server while staying with Trac 0.12.x. Basically, you can create a new Trac 0.12 installation on the server and test to verify that you've done the installation correctly. Then, use the hotcopy command to backup your environment on the old server and move your data to the new server. * Upgrade to Trac 1.2.1 on the new server. I suggest making lots of backups along the way (before moving from the old server, after moving to the new server, and before upgrading to Trac 1.2.1) and scripting all your operations so you can quickly redo them when something inevitably goes wrong. - Ryan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
