Hi,<br><br>I've been following along with user's experience in moving to
RT4. In order to see if I wanted to upgrade my RT3.8.4 I've been using
at my work place for the last 2 years I installed a fresh virtual
machine with a vanilla RT4 install. I like it and would like to use it
for production.<br>
<br>I would prefer to import the data into RT4 than upgrade the existing 3.8.4.<br><br>I do nightly mysqldumps of the database and tar up the contents of<b> /usr/local/share/request-tracker3.8</b>, <b>/usr/share/request-tracker3.8</b> and <b>/etc/request-tracker3.8<br>
</b><br>My question is : "It possible to run the upgrade scripts on the
database and get the data in the new instance (RT4) without actually
upgrading my 3.8.4?" or do I have to run the upgrade process on my 3.8.4
instance?<br>
<br>Maybe I missed it, I've struggled searching old posts - is there a step by step guide for doing this? <br><br>Thanks in advance.<br><font color="#888888"><br>Paul<br></font>
