How to transfer data from Redmine 2 to Redmine 4

Added by Rtep Athelav over 5 years ago

Hi, please, tips on how to transfer data from old Redmine 2.6.9.stable to newly installed Redmine 4.0.3.stable

All you need is /home/redmine/redmine-4.0.3/config/database.yml
edit access to MySQL database?

Or is it better to try to transfer the entire old Redmine 2.6.9.stable to the new server, and try to update to Redmine 3 and then update to Redmine 4?

Thank you very much for your advice.
