Hi Alexi,

Did you upgrade from 3b to 3c using the steps you outlined? Or did you find an easier way?

Hello Alexey,

I know it a long time ago but do you know which DB upgade scripts were run when you upgraded ?
I want to upgrade my Derbyb DB 3b installation to 3c but did not succeed until now due to unavailability of the correct scripts.
If I know at least which scripts need to be run I can try to create them myself for the Derby variant.

Kind regards,

Herman

I done a upgrade of Alfresco from 3b to 3c, everything working fine except for a few thing (I think it have to do with template missing). I done my backup of the database and data (alf_data). But in the post, somebody talking about this : "- backup alf_data, backup MySQL database, backup the settings (new document type, settings, etc…);". Where can I backup the settings? Thank.
