Hi,

I have a version Hesk database on one machine and have installed 2.3 on another machine. What is the best way to get my data from the 2.2 Hesk into the 2.3 Hesk? I was thinking of exporting the 2.2 database from mysql and then importing it into mysql and then following the install with the upgrade information. I ahve not checked if the mysql versions are the same. If there is a better method can someone please let me know.

Thanks
Shanthi

The database structure has changed since 2.2 so you have to do it the other way around - copy 2.2 to the new machine then update it to 2.3.

How do I uninstall 2.3? Just remove the hesk folder. And then copy the old one and do an install?

Thank You

Yes, remove the folder and delete the database, then copy version 2.2.
