I have recently started a new job, and my first assignment is to upgrade currently dormant system which is in zope 1.10.2 (source release, python 1.5.1, linux2) to the latest version and I see that this week the latest became 2.6, I had never even heard of Zope before Tuesday, so I've been looking into it and found some documentation on installing and upgrading Zope 2.x and Upgrading to 2.2.0 (final release). Would this cover from 1.10.2 , or is there more help needed and if so where could I find the needed information. Steffan G Bowen

Egad! 1.10.2? :^) First, you'll need to convert your old object database to the ZODB 3 file storage format. From waaaayyyy back in HISTORY.txt: An option has been added to the bbb.py script in the utilities directory to convert ZODB 2 database files to ZODB 3 format. The bbb.py script now accepts an '-f' option that takes an argument specifying an output file name. For example, to convert the ZODB 2 data file, Data.bbb, in the var directory, to ZODB 3 FileStorage format:: python utilities/bbb.py -f var/Data.fs var/Data.bbb Note that version data are not converted.

wow. well depending on the complexity and size of your zope content you might just want to download it file by file and put it into a fresh 2.6.0 install. For example, if you just have 100 standard objects using standard dtml, it might be easier this way. Of course if there is a lot of content that is fairly complex, then better to follow Brian's suggestions. <--> george donnelly - http://zettai.net/ - "We Love Newbies" :) Zope Hosting - Dynamic Website Design - Search Engine Promotion Yahoo: zettainet - ICQ: 51907738 - e:george@zettai.net
