>>> not playing properly and have replaced the existing .rlms which Ron M
>>> posted last week. However we are still having the same problems and

>>> installation. We attempted an upgrade to v1.7 a little while back but
>>> apparently it failed and we had to roll back to 1.5.
>>>
>>> Our developer who looks after our installation is unable to follow
>>> this list due to time constraints so he has asked me to seek advice
>>> from the community. We would like to have 1.7 running and we are
>>> wondering whether a clean install is the way to go. If we do a clean
>>> install, what are the implications for the Xerte resources that we
>>> have already created, some of which are publicly shared as OER?
>>>
>>> If we attempt another upgrade could somebody talk us through the
>>> steps that we need to take including file paths etc?
>>>
>>> many thanks
