Migration to new version

Post by lmartinez »

Good day, I have to move a very old database from an old Linux box to a new one with a new installation of Mantis.
I was able to install Mantis with an empty database that I can access with a browser (of course there is no data in it). I uploaded the dump file using FTP and I can see it when I log in with SSH.
What is the right way to import the old database dump to the new Mantis please?
I am planing on using the following command but I am not sure if I need to do anything else before:

mysql -u ***** –p******* -h hostname database_name < company_com_mysql_mantis.sql

I don’t know how to find the old database version but I have this on the new installation:
MantisBT Version 1.2.0rc2
MySQL client version: 5.0.32

have a look at
http://www.mantisbt.org/manual/manual.i ... rading.php
This is vor version 1.1.x but I think itshould work.

At the moment there is no documentation for this in 1.2
Please use Search before posting and read the Manual
