I'm back wondering if there is any possible way to upgrade my Umbraco database from v7 to v10 without going through v8-v9. I can't find too much documentation on solely upgrading the database so my best bet is here.
I tried going from 7 to 9..but even porting to 8 was a nightmare. Even after spending countless amounts of hours just dealing with the errors to prep the database and addressing the errors at each database migration attempt, there was still so much needed to be done for the templates.
Without really a full list of broken dependencies and what it was replaced with, you'll find yourself going around in circles.
Umbraco 7 database is so heavy and inefficient (client's DB is nearly 1GB)
Decided to rebuild the entire website on Umbraco 9. Even though it's a heavy task, it's been more productive and significantly faster/lighter db. I'm 80% done with project and DB export is only 30mb. With content added in, I expect it not to go over 100mb. The built in self-cleanup versions probably helps a lot with that.
I am facing the same problem and thinking of a brand new v10 installation and the migrate the content. What did you use and how did you migrate the content in your example? Any info very much appreciated
Only update database from v7 to v10
Hello again forum!
I'm back wondering if there is any possible way to upgrade my Umbraco database from v7 to v10 without going through v8-v9. I can't find too much documentation on solely upgrading the database so my best bet is here.
Thanks in advance!
You can only update the database leaving the code but you'll have to go through different versions of 8 first. From 8.18 you can go directly to v10.
You can use blank installs of 8 and 9 to upgrade the database. You don't need to upgrade your code in these steps.
If you are using Umbraco Forms, the documentation suggests that you have to update to v9 before going to 10.
"To migrate to version 10 you should first update to the latest minor release of version 9. This will ensure you have all the database schema changes in place." https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/Add-ons/Umbraco-Deploy/Upgrades/version-specific
