Thread:Project:Support desk/Easy way to upgrade from version 1.8 to 2.1?/reply (8)

I have set up my new MySQL database with the same names and credentials as the old. I have tested this by logging into mysql.

I have restored my old MySQL database into the new one and that was successful. However, when I attempted to run the update script, I got the result I've already mentioned. Having checked the table structure, from the error it appears that my old database doesn't have the same structure as the new one, missing several fields. Have there been significant changes made between the versions?
