Copy Users from 6.5
« on: July 09, 2007, 10:45:05 AM »
I have an old SME 6.5 server that won't boot. I have just built up a new server to replace it. I can access the hard drive of the machine that won't boot, is it possible for me to get the users from the hard drive and put them on to my new 7.1.3 server?

Will it matter if I can't do the first step?

You'll be missing the mysql dbs, so you will need to manually copy them over.
Search for the very long thread re upgrades from sme 6 to 7 as this issue was covered there.
