    I’ve got an old CatDV Enterprise Server 9 MySQL database that I need to salvage by migrating it up to version 14. In the past I’ve baby stepped the schema version up with each CatDV version update. With such a large gap between versions and the CatDV product ownership changes I’m not sure how to approach this migration task. What is the best method of bringing this older MySQL data into CatDV Enterprise 14?

    Hello again,

    I was able to find the right combo of versions that allowed me to migrate everything successfully. The trick in my case was finding the correct MySQL version (8.0.36-arm64) that would allow me to import my MySQL backup file. From there I was able to incrementally update version by version to get current.

    Good luck out there. Who am I kidding. No one is reading this…
