alternative way to upgrade site - export them import content

Saturday 01 September 2007 1:14:29 pm

Hello,

I have 3 small sites I need upgrade to 3.9.0
The oldest is a 3.7.3 site.
All the sites was upgraded before 4 ou 7 times.
I noticed there are one or anoher problem related with the upgrades - class definitions not updated, errors when running scripts to upgrade to the latest version, etc.
So I thing start from new sites and import the content from the old ones - even if this is requires more work and time.

So, instead of upgrade the sites from one version to another, Im wondering if is viable export the content (not including class definitions) from the old site and them import the content into a new 3.9.0 fresh installation.

thank you

Thanks for your valuable info!

Just another question: have you used the import/export web interface, or a CLI interface?

Someone have a suggestion to workarround the related objects issue?

note: I will use 3.9.3, not 3.9.0 (my mistake)
