Dear Sir, Kindly I need some clarification on your below suggestion about the upgrade from version 1.6.0 to version 3.2, you said the following “I also strongly recommend you to start with a fresh DSpace 3 installation on a new machine with up-to-date OS, Java, etc., copy the database and assetstore over, import the 1.6 database and do the database upgrade steps on the new machine”, what do you mean by “copy the database and then import the 1.6 database….? the scenario is to install a fresh and clean database, then to import the database from 1.6 to 3.2, please can you clarify, thank you in advance.

Dear Sirs, Kindly I need your help in the upgrading of our DSPACE from version 1.6.0 to 3.2, upon your below advise I prepared the following scenario: 1. I prepared 2 new servers: one for the middle-tier and one for the database (Oracle) 2. I will install from scratch the DSPACE 3.2 3. I will copy from our current DSPACE 1.6.0 all the files and directories under "dpsce1.6\assetstore" then I will paste them to the new one under "dspace3.2\assetsore". 4. I will import the database from the old oracle database 1.6.0 to the new oracle database 3.2 5. I will run all the upgrade oracle scripts that related to the database (*.sql scripts) 6. I will add manually the customizations in “dspace.cfg” of the current version 1.6.0 into “dspace.cfg” of the new version 3.2 and also in the “.cfg” files that exist under [dspace]/config/modules directory (since in version 3.2 the dspace.cfg has been split up: many “module” configuration have been moved out of the “dspace.cfg” and into separate configuration files in the [dspace]/config/modules directory). 7. I will add manually the customizations in the files “news-xmlui.xml” and “imput-forms.xml” for the new version 3.2 Please correct me if I am wrong or if I missed some important steps, thank you in advance.

Especially do not forget to do the database schema upgrades. You don't have to actually start DSpace after each single-version update. The upgrade between all versions are documented here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Upgrading+a+DSpace+Installation I strongly recommend you to start with a clean DSpace 3 configuration directory and add in only your customizations. You can find them out by doing a diff between the clean DSpace 1.6 dspace.cfg and your customized DSpace 1.6 dspace.cfg. Then simply transfer them by hand to the clean DSpace 3 configuration. I also strongly recommend you to start with a fresh DSpace 3 installation on a new machine with up-to-date OS, Java, etc., copy the database and assetstore over, import the 1.6 database and do the database upgrade steps on the new machine.
