Hi All,
Is it possible to upgrade directly from 3.2.4 to 3.5. I tried uploading it refering to this URL : http://ez.no/ez_publish/download/changelogs/ez_publish_3_5/upgrading

I completed Step One and Step Two, but in Step Three when I run this script "./update/common/scripts/updateiscontainer.php mysite_admin", I get this error,
Failed to run update query
Unknown database 'nextgen'

What shall I do now?

Thanks for you help
Ashwini

You know that you have to perform the upgrades from version to version?
That is: if you want to upgrade from 3.2 to 3.5 you have to follow this upgrade path: 3.2 -> 3.3 -> 3.4 -> 3.5.

I know I've upgraded sites from 3.3 -> 3.5. Is this a particular issue with 3.2?

I have to run the database upgrade scripts ( in update/database/mysql/3.x ) to take the database from 3.3 -> 3.5 and usually run most of the scripts in the update/common/scripts/

In terms of the original issue

when I run this script "./update/common/scripts/updateiscontainer.php mysite_admin", I get this error,
Failed to run update query
Unknown database 'nextgen'

"nextgen" is the default database name. Have you copied your setup information to the new install?

Cheers

Hi

If you have your database settings in settings/siteaccess, please specify the siteaccess when running the updateiscontainer.php.

If there is no database definition in settings/override/site.ini..., it'll probably go to default, which is nextgen ( settings/site.ini ), unless siteaccess is specified.
