Hi Adebusoye
Did you upload run any scripts? just uploaded the war file and restored the  old database backup but the problem is everything seems fine but cannot display information related to dataset.

Hi,
I posted a similar requirement a few months back. From my experience 2.0 to 2.10 worked fine.

All of the table altering stuff from earlier versions should be accumulated in newer versions but I recall that sometimes things did not go smoothely with major jumps in versions.  I guess the simple fact is that incremental upgrades tend to get tested pretty heavily.  Jumping versions becomes more of a leap of faith :-)

But I do agree, if someone can verify that 2.05 to 2.10 works fine, then it would be good to hear.
I suspect the bigger problems will arise because the metadata integrity control on earlier versions was a good bit looser, so there will be hiccups caused by inconsistencies in categoryoptions, groupsets etc due to "broken" metadata in old databases.  Certainly before attempting such an upgrade I would consider trying to repair as much of these as possible, though again without tools it is not always really easy.

Of course the most important thing is to make sure you do all of these experiments in the full knowledge that you have a complete, verified/restored backup copy of the source database.

Meanwhile I guess the answer to my earlier question is that nobody has setup a dhis war museum.

I thought Dan's point was that it would not be necessary to go through every version?

But if it's necessary, maybe it would suffice to describe in simple steps how to build old versions.

The question of upgrading from very old dhis2 versions came up recently in another post.



It emerged then that we don't seem to have a historical archive (museum!) of war artefacts going back beyond 2.10 on http://apps.dhis2.org/ci.  We do have the source code tagged back as far as 2.4.  Has anybody kept hold of these historic build or should we consider rebuilding and making available?  Who would volunteer to do that?

Hi Moemedi,Not sure, but I think you could try upgrading directly from 2.0.5 to 2.13 first, and then run the first script. Then 2.14, then script, then 2.15.
If things don't work, you should provide the actual error messages.

Hi All
I am upgrading DHIS 2.0.5 using postgreSQL DB, is there a shortcut other than using incremental way like 2.0.5, 2.0.6 ......to 2.15. Directly executing scripts from http://www.dhis2.org/download/resources/sql/convert-fixed-attributes-to-dynamic.sql gives errors like column does not exist.

Hello Moemedi,
The upgrades should happen automatically except for 2.13->2.14 and 2.14->2.15 Those scripts can be found here https://www.dhis2.org/downloads 





2.13->2.14 http://www.dhis2.org/download/resources/sql/convert-fixed-attributes-to-dynamic.sql





2.14->2.15 http://www.dhis2.org/download/resources/sql/rename-patient-to-trackedentity.sql
