Upgrade from eZ 2.2.7 to latest 3.3.3 = Mission impossible?

Wednesday 17 March 2004 6:55:28 am

Hi,

The 2.2 and the 3.x series are totally different. As far as I know there are no common/generic update/export/import-scripts that can be used. You would have to do a lot of stuff manually; also regarding the templates/layout, since this is totally different too. However, it shouldn't take too long; if I were you, I would do the following:

1) Figure out which classes I need.
2) Create the content classes.
3) Create the site structure (folders, articles, etc.).
3) Create the pagelayout (main template).
4) Create templates for the different classes.
5) Make a script that exports data from 2.2 into the structure in 3.x.

Good luck!

Try to ask in the 2.2 forum, here is the URL: http://ez.no/ez_publish/cms/ez_publish_2_2/forum - you could also sign up for support.

Export what from Linux and import it into what on Windows? :-) It is impossible to estimate how much a specific support service/session would cost without having a proper list of requirements. You would have to contact our support division and ask them directly. Do this by e-mailing them using support[at]ez[dot]no. A good/clear list of requirements usually results in smoother/better support. We try to help out as much as we can, however - the amount of time used is proportional with the amount that will be printed on the invoice.
