Migration from OX 0.8.x to OX6

[kgpd123]

Hi,
We are currently using OX 0.8.x and considering migrating to OX6. It appears that the MySQL database schema in OX6 is completely different.
Anybody has an idea how the existing 0.8.x pgsql database can be transferred to OX6 MySQL?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Pani,

some partners are currently finishing a migration tool for exact this reason, they are beta testing it on "real" installation right now. I'm gonna forward this thread to a colleague which is closer to this topic.

Hi Pani,

as Martin said the migration tools are in Partner Beta.

Is the project very urgent or can you wait until the tools are released officially?

Do you have a integration partner who maintains your OX5 installation or did you implement anything yourself?

Did you already request your new keys like described in this document?

Hi,
Thanks Martin and Daniel for quick responses!
I implemented 0.8.x myself. I am thinking of implementing ox6 on redhat/fedora.
That's why I'm interested in some tools for migration. Are these tools going to be free or do we have to buy?
Thanks!

Hi,
I really need to know about the availability of migration tools to decide which upgrade path to take.
Could someone please let me know the options available to me.
Thanks

Hi,

any news to the migration tools? As I see, they are still not available yet?

[kgpd123]

Hi,
I believe that migration tools are available for licensed OX5 users.

Some of our cerified partners did the first successfull migrations - we can bring everybody interested in contact with them.

Daniel, I'd be interested in hearing about organisations who have successfully migrated from OX5 --> OX6SE. Can you tell me more?
