Upgrading DHIS2 db from 2.0 to 2.15: Any advice?

Hi all,

I saw (for the first time) a DHIS2 implementation version 2.0 build date circa 2010. It uses the H2 database that comes with DHIS2 live. Knowing that there might be issues with a direct upgrade I did a full xml meta data export and then realised that the format changed around version 2.12.

Now, has anyone succeeded in this conversion. There is always the option of getting the meta data and data exported to csv and reconfiguring from scratch. Before embarking on a fool’s errand, any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Busoye,

sorry I think it will not work to do smooth exchange through DXF - brute force hacking likely needed.

cheers

Hi Aaron,

Many thanks for this. I had to start from version 2:10 and was able to upgrade the db to 2.15 from the xml export. I didn’t have the data export to hand at the time but I don’t think there should be an issue here either.

Thanks again.

Cheers
