The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[David Verdin <address@concealed>]

Hi,

There is a simpler solution.

Apply your mysqldump to the VM, then edit the <sympa_home>/etc/data _structure.version.

Change the value it contains from '6.1.22' to '6.1.17', then run 'sympa.pl --upgrade'.

It will do all the changes your data need, including updating the database.

Regards,

David

Hi,

I’ve been working on migrating Sympa from a Sunfire x4150 server running Solaris 10 (apache, msyql and sympa-6.1.17)to a VMware virtual RHEL 6 x64 machine. I’ve installed apache, mysql and sympa-6.1.20 on the virtual machine and copied over apache, mysql and sympa config files, making edits as appropriate. I was going to rsync the list_data and archive directories, then install the sympa database from a mysqldump. 

I was wondering from the mysql side of things if this would work as I think the sympa-6.1.20 mysql database is slightly different compared with the sympa-6.1.17 one.

Would it be better to upgrade Sympa on the Solaris machine first before migrating it to the virtual machine?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Gordon
