Hi. I am migrating a Web application from Zope 2.7.8 to 2.10.7.
I noticed the format of acl_users has changed (the format of acl_users' exported XML file is different).
Did you try the .zexp export?
No. Ideally I would combine the acl_users from the old server (existing, production system) with the acl_users form the new server (test), so that we can do a full test involving both the existing user accounts and the new user accounts. I thought I would handle this by combining the XML files and then importing the result, to replace acl_users on the new server... BUT I paused when I saw the XML formats were different. I was also afraid I'd break the new server by export / import using the zexp format; knowing the XML format changed, I assumed the zexp contents for acl_users would be different as well, but maybe that was a false assumption.. I am new to Zope by the way and appreciate your advice. Truly, -at
