Description

I saw some tickets and explanation to migrating the versions and databases...but my problem is bit different.

My old database was on 0.8.7 and now we have installed 1.0.0 on a different machine altogether.
0.8.7 is completely functional and is in production. SO we couldnt take the risk of upgrading it in the same machine. So 1.0.0 is installed on a different machine and is working fine.
Can you provide the STEPS to perfectly migrate all the databases' data from 0.8.7 to 1.0.0 ?

I did try to restore databases but there seems to be some tables/columns added in the new verison and hence restoring isnt working. Is there a way to restore. I am using TOAD for MySql as mysql IDE.
If possible, kindly reply asap. i have a very little window.

Everything is explained on the wiki : RedmineUpgrade

If you're on a new server, you have 2 steps before upgrading in place :
  • backup your database and restore it on the new server
  • transfer the files under subdirectory files/ to the new server

I close the ticket as it's not an issue in redmine core. Please use the forum instead for your next help requests.
