I just installed a clean 2.3 and want to use a data base used by 2.0.18. Do I upload the upgrade folder to upgrade the database for 2.3 use?

Thank you,

Rick

I think I'd upgrade the 2.0.18 site first, then move the db across.

(just my 2yen's worth)

Never let a man who does not believe something can be done, talk to a man that is doing it.

Hi sailjapan,

What I was trying to avoid was not changing the db structure of the db for 2.0.18, in case I need to keep the production 2.018 install.

make a backup of the 2.0.18 site as it is, upgrade the site, ripp-off the db, delete all and re-install the backups.

Thanks for the suggestion, I am not going to risk having problems and down time with the production site.

Thanks
