UNSUCCESSFUL upgrade from 3.4e to 4.0a - yes another thread.

nickbsd — Mon, 05 Mar 2012 18:20:50 GMT

I'm curious to know if I can backup an entire SITE in alfresco\share using 3.4e (production environment) and import it into a 4.0c(latest) build without trying to upgrade the environment.We're running 3.4E right now in production and I can't seem to get a working upgrade to 4.0a(b)c so I've stood up

There's no need to switch to Postgress, Alfresco 4 is fine on MySql.

I understand 4x works with MySQL but I can'd find documentation on how to switch over.

The steps leading to my frustration.

SERVER A running ALF 3.4e

-stopped alfresco+share
-shutdown tomcat
-performed a mysql dump of the 'alfresco' database
-tarred the alf_data directory

SERVER B running ALF 4.0d (latest)
-tested I could logon using admin/admin
-shutdown tomcat
-installed mysql-server
-edited alfresco-global.properties to use mysql instead of postgres
-uploaded the jar mysql connector into the tomcat/lib directory
-untarred alf_data backup and placed it in the folder location that was configured in alfresco-global.properties
-removed the 'contentstore' directory in the alf_data folder
-since this is a new mysql installation, the alfresco table did not exist.
-created alfresco database and assigned alfresco permissions

create database alfresco DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8;
grant all on alfresco.* to 'alfresco'@'localhost' identified by 'alfresco' with grant option;
grant all on alfresco.* to 'alfresco'@'localhost.localdomain' identified by 'alfresco' with grant option;‍‍‍

Attempted to start Alfresco– Alfresco share comes up but Alfresco does not.
