[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Upgrading across multiple versions

[Dudeck, John]

Greetings.

I am an IT professional newly serving as pro-bono technical advisor to a non-profit’s small archives.

About 8 years ago a previous archivist started an Archives Space installation, but then left the organization, and knowledge of their Archives Space system disappeared. Recently by asking the right questions I found the Virtual Machine containing our instance, fully intact and operational. There are a couple thousand records in the database.

This instance of Archives Space is version 1.1.2. I tried doing an upgrade from 1.1.2 to a recent version (3.3.0 I think) a while back, which was not successful, as could be expected.

So assuming that I need to do the upgrade in several steps, I would like to know what intermediate versions would be the key steps to upgrade to in order to get all of the database migrations. Or alternatively, can somebody point me to information on how to migrate the database over that span of 1.1.2 to 3.4.1 ? I scoured the online information on upgrading A.S., and have not found anything sufficiently helpful.

Thanks.
