CMS Made Simple Forums

I've given up trying to discover why 1.8.2 will not work with postgres-9.x. I have an opportunity to host my company web site on a server slice that uses mysql as the back end and I want to learn if I can transfer the tables intact.

I've used pg_dump to create a sql file of the cms database created with 1.8.2 on my local system. If we translate from postgres to mysql, can we load these tables into a new installation on that server running either version 1.8.2 or 1.9.4?

I'd prefer to not start from scratch to recreate the entire site if I can avoid doing so.

TIA,

Rich

The DB will need to have the same CMSMS version as the site where it comes from, then you can upgrade etc...

Thank you. That answers my question and allows me to move forward.

Much appreciated,
