The problems with old project files are mainly related to print composer settings that have been changed internally. As an alternative, you could save the styles of your layers to qml files, and try to create new project files by adding the datasources and stylings to that. That way you only have to recreate the print composer part of the project files.

Migrating project files is not very well tested, expecially when skipping versions. And it's hard to debug without the actual old project file and the data that goes with it. Maybe migrating from 2.2 over 2.4 to 2.6 would have worked better, but that's evenly hard to tell without trying. > The Minidump ending problems should have been solved with the new 2.6.1 > version I read.

The step from 2.6 to 2.6.1 is tiny (only fixes, no new features that often also change the project file format) compared the step from 2.2 to 2.6. But of course that there is no guarantee that nothing will fail in one way or another and therefore keeping backups cannot do harm. Jürgen -- Jürgen E.

[Qgis-user] qgis / windows upgrade from 2.6 to 2.6.1
Hi everybody, I recently installed qgis 2.6, which caused a series of problems, although I saved old 2.2 project versions als 2.6 version before continuing working. E.g. project files collapsed while changing legend items and where completely destroyed afterwards (impossible to open them again!), or every time I closed down a project by "end qgis/project, the system creates minidump ending files. The Minidump ending problems should have been solved with the new 2.6.1 version I read. Is there any chance to get an upgrade 2.6.1 file instead of deinstall qgis 2.6 and reinstall 2.6.1 completely new? Last time I did from 2.2 to 2.6 I lost all my presettings, legend files and so on. Thank you for your answer. Best regards, Claudia ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
