Re: Upgrade 2.0.4 to 2.4

 

Thanks for this information.  Since this is not yet in production, it looks
like it might be better to piece together an upgrade by importing various
data sets and patching things up as I go along.

There will be a number of disconnected sites which would be good candidates
for H2 at least at the start.  Planned connectivity improvements will
hopefully eliminate these in a year or two.

Do most DHIS sites stay on the same version as originally installed (and
thereby forgo all of your fantastic updates)?

I was hoping to have online access to the system by now but it looks like I
will have to wait until I go back in a few weeks to get this sorted out.

Regards,
Mark
