rolling

hope you have a rollback plan and contingencies as well. That complex a migration will likely take a couple of attempts. Any way to break it into stages?
bonne chance.

Have fun,

Mr Paranoid (me?)

Oh yeah - multiple backups at various stages (it is a little broken up, as much as I can, but Thenon is a clumsy beast at best) - with the ability to go back at any time. I lost some 5 hours last night wrestling with their old WebUI feature - seems they've integrated in with the main product so far as Thenon (their so-called package management 'solution') is concerned. We don't use it anymore (the interface is butt-ugly and clumsy to boot) - this became an issue last night. Luckily, I actually have a version of the HTML source/member files from the target version, so I got around that by manually shoving them into the release so Theno stopped freaking out and halting. What a fun night it's been...

Thanks!

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
