Upgrade while converting from MySQL to Postgres instructions unclear

Post by williamconley »

FAQ post: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7519&p=23173

Procedure to Convert MySQL to PostgreSQL:

1) Upgrade to latest v11.0.X of TimeTrex still using MySQL. Confirm that you can still login to TimeTrex and that everything is working as normal.

Challenge with Step 1): There are no previous or archived versions of TimeTrex available. Only the version with MySQL removed (11.1). Thus upgrading and logging in is now impossible. Upgrade fails, the DB is not upgraded, and the mysql commands that follow mostly fail.

If 11.0 is, in fact, available: There should be a link to it in the FAQ post as any other location search for previous versions of TimeTrex results in "nope: just use the latest".
TimeTrex_CE_v10.0.4
openSUSE 13.1 x86_64 in WMware ESXi 5.1.0
hardware 4Core 2.3Ghz/virtual 2Core 60G HD and 2G RAM
Installed via zip 5.0.7. Upgrades: 7.2.5 zip, 7.3.4 zip, Unatt->v10.0.4
MySQL Ver 15.1 Distrib 5.5.46-MariaDB
PHP 5.4.20 (Zend v2.4.0)
