You should then export the old objecttree (may be pathwise) and import it into the new instance. (Good time to clean up!)
Some of my sites are running (without any problems) Zope 2.4.0 with Data.fs files that were created with Zope 2.1.x and used with every major Zope version since. I run an INSTANCE_HOME setup where the only change that needs to be made is in the 'start' script for where to find the new Zope installation. It makes things much simpler since my Products, Extensions, start scripts and data files are not in the Zope tree. If I need to revert back to another version, I just change one line and restart. So, ZC (or anyone else knowledgeable of Zope guts), is my Data.fs dirty from not going through an export/import process every time I upgrade, or is my positive experience doing it this way because there's nothing wrong with it? _______________________ Ron Bickers Logic Etc, Inc.
