    Upgrading Ilias 5.3.3 to 6
    Hello everyone,

    we tried to move our Ilias 5.3.3 data onto a new server with Ilias 6. We couldn't find any information about upgrading the Ilias version. Is the new version compatible with the old data and db or do we have to upgrade them. If yes, how?

    Kind Regards

    I haven't tried this huge step. I recommend to do it in two steps:

    1. Upgrade 5.3.3 -> 5.4.16 (or higher)
    2. Upgrade 5.4.16 -> 6.3 (or higher)

    But before all upgrade: Make a full backup of Database,  ./data,  public/data and pulic/Customizing

    Ciao, Joo

    Hello.

    I'm migrating our Ilias 5.1 server to 6.3, on a different server. Export/Import isn't working (excepted quizzes) so I decided to recreate the courses on the new server (there is only3, not a pain) with the same setting, copy the course files to the new server and finished the configuration (starting file ...).

    It's working but takes more time.

    Regards.
