Switching to the latest stable version is a great idea. You'll find it much easier to get support if your installation of Koha is current. Since all of Koha's data is in MySQL all you need is a backup of your Koha database. The upgrade process should handle all the necessary updates to the database structure. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org
Hi Felix, Recently I did a migration from 2.2 to 3.4. My experience had been to make a new installation of Koha and then make an import/export of data from the old the new installation. In this way I made some multiple correction to the marc records using MarcEdit and put clear data on the new koha system. Best Regards. Paolo. Il 18/05/12 14.50, Owen Leonard ha scritto:
