Re: Upgrade 2.0.4 to 2.4

 

Hi Ola,
I would like to impose upon you to take a look at our database.
This was originally set up under 2.0.4 and we would like to run it under
the latest 2.5
The database as is does run under 2.5 but it crashes at odd times (mostly
when doing maintenance and reports).  Data entry seems to work well.
I'd appreciate it if you could take a look at this and see what would be
involved to update it to 2.5.  It's a fairly simple installation with only
one data entry form and not much in the way of reports.  It includes some
historical data from 2008 and 2009.
This is a Postgres pg_dump file.

Thanks very much,
Mark
