Hi there,

My old version of DNN database is 1.3.1.0. I have tried installing v5.2.3, thinking the database would be upgraded automatically but it failed after "Installing Database - Version 05.00.00...Success". Can someone please suggest the best way to do the upgrade as I don't want to lose the content that is in my old database.

 

Many Thanks.

Alex.

there are no DB versions between 1.0.11 and 2.0.0. if you are upgrading from DNN 4 or less, you should upgrade in multiple steps. For a recommendation post your real version. Note: DNN 5 requires SQL 2005 or above and .Net framework 3.5 SP1

Sebastian,

My mistake. Before I started the install/upgrade, my db version was 3.1.0. After the failed upgrade, it actually upgraded the db to 4.4.1. I am running SQL 2005 and correct version of the .Net Framework. Please let me know what else I can do.

Many Thanks.

Alex.

you cannot upgrade from DNN 3.1.0 to DNN 5.x in a single step. you need to upgrade to DNN 3.3.7, 4.4.1 (switch from ASP.Net 1.1 to 2.0 for the web site), 4.6.2 and 4.9.5, before upgrading to latest DNN 5. The first 3 steps require manual adoption of web.config. You may follow this check list: http://www.deutschnetnuke.de/AboutDotnetNuke/V3V4TippsTricks/Upgradedurchführen.aspx

Is there no way just to upgrade the database?
