Upgrade 2.2 to 2.3.1

Hi

I'm would like to upgrade from 2.2 to 2.3.1, and am reading the upgrade guide. I don't quite understand this item at the beginning

 

 

"This upgrade guide only provides the minimum required changes in the form of security updates and bug fixes. These

changes will not upgrade your store to a complete v2.3 version. Please continue to use v2.2 add-ons and do not install v2.3

optimized add-ons as the may not function with your installation. If you wish to upgrade to a full v2.3 version, perform only

(SQL) Database Changes and use the database with a new v2.3 installation."

 

Am I to understand that to use 2.3 I have to go with a clean install, and then figure out how to move the data on my own? Is there a sql script that will properly upgrade my database from 2.2 to 2.3.1? Thanks!

Hi

I think you are right in your assumption, there was a lot of debate on a script to import your existing data over, however this is not really workable as most users have various addons installed on their current markets and some need to have Database info added so a script would be of no use.

There are a few posts on this about the forum, however if you compare each table structure with the new you will be able to import your data ok, it will not take you too long to do.

a straight import will not work as there are differences between the two..
