Ok well what would be the best practice to restore a old midgard database in
various stages of upgrade (I have tried at various points to upgrade the
midgard database so I can't say that it is from version x )? The only data
that I for one host. Should I just start with a fresh midgard database and
some how bring in the old data, or can I start with the old database and
upgrade it? I did try to upgrade it using the upgrade script at install
time, but it barffed a number of errors about the sitegroup tables being
there already, since I had tried to previously upgrade it. As of right now
I cannot tell if the midgard database is working or not because as specified
in my previous email I cannot login as administrator because I do not
remember the old admin password and during upgrad it did not reset to
"password". I would first like to fix this password problem and check to
see how much of the database made it through the upgrade process, then move
from there.
