New uPortal 2.5 and 2.6 Upgrade Scripts Now Available
Good news for uPortal 2.5.x and 2.6.x users planning to upgrade to uPortal 3.1: We have created special "export versions" for these earlier releases that will help automate the upgrade.
Previously, export scripts were only available for uPortal 3.0 and above. Those scripts have now been adapted for use by 2.5 and 2.6 users for upgrades to uPortal 3.0 and later.
The special releases include data export scripts back-ported from the uPortal 3.0 code base which include a large number of fixes that were not easily included into the 2.5 and 2.6 scripts.
Please note that these releases cannot be used to run a uPortal instance, only to export data from a uPortal 2.5 or 2.6 database for upgrading to uPortal 3.0 or later.
Instructions for using the releases can be found in the release notes on the wiki:
