To upgrade from Build Forge version 3.8 to version 7.0 or later, you
must perform the tasks described in this topic.
- Run bfinstall.pl to upgrade
- Run the bfmigrate script to update your database.
- Complete post-upgrade tasks.
Important: If you are running version 3.8 on MySQL, you must
install MySQL 5 and migrate Build Forge data to MySQL before running bfmigrate.
(Migration to MySQL 5 must include setting up a user for Build Forge to use
to connect to the MySQL 5 instance.)
