Lars tells me this is not necessarily true and I think he is right. All of the 'legacy' sql upgrade stuff should be present in the dhis.war to upgrade from previous versions so you should indeed be able to upgrade from 2.x to 2.7 by just deploying the latest war. And given you will have taken a db backup first there is no real risk in trying anyway. > > On 19 February 2012 18:56, Mark Spohr <mhsp...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Thanks very much for this update.
