Hi,
Any update on your upgrade issue? I am sorry I don't have an answer for you, but your issue is extremely important for the implementation of Alfresco. I am rather new to the product, but it is critical that it has a reliable upgrade path - for the community version as well.

Please let me know if you were able to solve your issues.

Regards,
Matt

Use this script to upgrade .xml from 1.3 to 1.4. It worked for me.

#!/bin/sh
# Convert ACP XML files from 1.3 format to 1.4
# Expects input and output args
if [ "$2" = "" ]; then
   echo "The ACP XML Conversion utility needs input and output files specified:"
   echo "1-3_to_1-4 <13inputFile.xml> <14outputfile.xml>"
else
   # set the LIB_DIR value to point to the Alfresco lib directory

     LIB_DIR='/opt/Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/lib';
     TEMP_CLASS_PATH=$LIB_DIR/repository.jar:$LIB_DIR/core.jar:$LIB_DIR/dom4j-1.6.1.jar:$LIB_DIR/xpp3-1.1.3_8.jar:$LIB_DIR/jug.jar
   /opt/Alfresco/java/bin/java -cp $TEMP_CLASS_PATH org.alfresco.repo.admin.patch.util.ImportFileUpdater $1 $2
fi
