It should be possible to include the old app in the new installation just 
by copying the [oldweb2py]/applications/oldapp folder to 
[newweb2py]/applications/oldapp, and restarting the web2py server.  If 
there is a difference in the web2py release between old and new, you should 
still be okay, but it's a good idea to compare the files in oldapp/static 
with those in the welcome app, and take a look at the welcome app's 
models/db.py for modernization.  If you need the appadmin stuff, then 
update those files; if you've disabled appadmin, then there's no issue. 
(Mine's not disabled, but requires ssl port forwarding.)

Skip copying the errors and sessions subdirectories because of pickling 
changes.  files.

Good luck!
