CumulusMX v4 updating

From Cumulus MX version 3 build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since, and has recently released Cumulus MX version 4. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

I have been able to successfully upgrade to v4 of Cumulus MX.

Unfortunately I don't think If been able completely migrate all my data.

When I run dotnet /opt/CumulusMX/MigrateData3to4.dll I get MigrateData v.1.0.0
Failed to find Cumulus.ini file!


I assume I should be using my old Cumulus.ini file but where. I've tried with both the root folder and datav3

You need to navigate into the directory:

Code: Select all

cd /opt/CumulusMX


Then do the command:

Code: Select all

dotnet MigrateData3to4.dll
The data migration program expects to be run from within the directory, otherwise it has no way of knowing where Cumulus.ini is.
