In order to use export/import, you'd need to upgrade the v2.1 and v3.0 servers to v3.2 first.

Ok clear for import/export.
But i' am having trouble upgrading.Some advise on this?
We have on 3.0 our production and we want to move on 3.2.I made the copy of extension folder,alf_data,WEB-INF/lib on production.Then i install new 3.2.
So on everything is ok.I start ALfresco 3.2.I enable Ldap and CIFS access.ALl this is working fine,main reason why we wont move on 3.2.
But then mess start.
I stop alfresco 3.2.copy sql from production to database alfresco 3.2.
I start server again.I can see Index recovery started: 1.762 transactions
Index recovery completed.Reindex 100% complete
[org.alfresco.repo.admin.ConfigurationChecker] The Alfresco root data directory ('dir.root') is: /opt/Alfresco/Alfresco-3.2/alf_data
[org.alfresco.repo.admin.ConfigurationChecker] CONTENT INTEGRITY ERROR: System content not found in content store.
[org.alfresco.repo.admin.ConfigurationChecker] Ensure that the 'dir.root' property is pointing to the correct data location.
[org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader] Context initialization failed
How to solve this error?Alfresco crash.
Please.
I follow the steps written about upgrade on http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/General_Upgrade_Process.

You need to copy your database AND your content, you can't do one without the other. From what you have said you just copied the database, hence the problem.

Or as Mike said once you have upgraded your old versions use Export from what used to be the old version and import into your new instance.

Hi i figure it out the issue with workflows,but now i have another questions.
I don't wanna use any more some workflows.
I delete it in extension folder and in web-client-config-custom.xml.
My question here is they will be also deleted from database.Because when i will upgrade database and alf_data from 3.0 to 3.2 this probably would't work.Or should?
How to delete non using workflow in database.Will server automaticlly recognized the new configuration or i need to by hand delete it from database?
How to make it consistent, that upgrade will succeed?
