[Xerte] Re: upgrading to version 3

[Ron Mitchell]

Upgrading is the best option for most organisations. Exporting and importing
into a new install isn't practical or necessary for organisational
installations with lots of existing LO's. Just follow the upgrade
instructions and obviously back-up first then test before restoring access
to everyone.

 

As Julian says very few issues with existing projects especially if already
version 2.1.

Yes, LO's made in XoT 2.x are 1 on 1 compatible with LO's in XoT 3.0
You just need to export the LO's as zip and import the zips in XoT 3.0

I have used this on a new server. The old server had XoT 2.0 installed. The
new server has XoT 3.0 installed.

However, I have not tested an udate from XoT 2.x to XoT 3.0 on the same
server. Maybe Tom can respond on that?

Hi

 

Before I ask our IT folks to upgrade XOT to version 3, can I be reassured
there is backwards compatibility? i.e. Will LOs we made in version 2 still
be editable and usable in version 3?

 

AIso, is there anything in particular we need to be careful of when
upgrading?

 

Thanks

Oli
