Where are the old versions?

forrestt — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 15:32:38 GMT

I had an installed 1.4 version of Alfresco that was in fairly heavy use for the past several years (has ~150GB of data in it). I just became the administrator of this data and unfortunately need to either reinstall 1.4 on a new system for it to run on or upgrade to a new version (my preference). H

All the "installer" does is put files in the right place.

You should be able to move your existing implementation from one box to another. Just by copying files. There may be a little tweaking of one or two paths in the config but it should be fairly simple.

I can get access to the 1.4 version of the installed files with some work (it is now only on a backup tape). However, this won't help me with upgrading. Am I totally out of luck with that?

Why don't you try upgrading a copy of your system and see what happens? In theory it should work.
