Hi, I've been following along with user's experience in moving to RT4. In order to see if I wanted to upgrade my RT3.8.4 I've been using at my work place for the last 2 years I installed a fresh virtual machine with a vanilla RT4 install. I like it and would like to use it for production.
I would prefer to import the data into RT4 than upgrade the existing 3.8.4. I do nightly mysqldumps of the database and tar up the contents of*/usr/local/share/request-tracker3.8 *, */usr/share/request-tracker3.8* and */etc/request-tracker3.8 * My question is : "It possible to run the upgrade scripts on the database and get the data in the new instance (RT4) without actually upgrading my 3.8.4?" or do I have to run the upgrade process on my 3.8.4 instance? Maybe I missed it - is there a step by step guide for doing this? Thanks in advance. Paul
