Migrating Koha database from version 3.18 to 19.11?
Hello everyone Our library has been using a Vietnamized version of Koha 3.18 since mid 2014, running on Ubuntu server 14.04 LTS. No upgrade of the system has been made since and the server had a hardware problem (mainboard) last February. We have a mysqldump of the Koha database (size about 1,8 GB). So what we are trying to do is to install the latest Koha version (19.11) on a fresh Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS (Desktop) and then to replenish the empty Koha tables through SQL inserts in the tables using sql exports of the related fields from the old database. For that we have been comparing the structure of the tables of Koha 3.18 and 19.11 with the tool provided at http://schema.koha-community.org/ Can this way of proceeding, although tedious it might be, be successful or not ? If not, could someone have suggestions ? Thanks for your attention. Quynh ================= M.

I would not do such partial loading, it won't work. You're much better just loading the whole dump, replacing whatever default database your 19.11 installation created. Then manually run updatedatabase.pl or even simpler, follow the instructions when connecting to Koha, it'll run the update from the UI. This will be very fast.

How lucky you are to have gotten this hardware problem, you will have the lastest Koha version :) You only need to reinstall the system, install Koha using the debian packages, drop and recreate the DB, inject your dump into the empty DB. Restart the koha-common service, hit the intranet page and you will get through the upgrade process. Please don't do anything else than that, you don't need do! :) Enjoy Le jeu. 14 mai 2020 à 16:16, Quỳnh Vũ Đỗ <quynhvd@thanglong.edu.vn> a écrit :

Ah, wonderful, very nice. Do existing entries need to be repaired? Or is there a converter? Thanks for the info! Am 14.05.20 um 16:16 schrieb Quỳnh Vũ Đỗ:
