Hi team,

I hope you are doing good.
Right now we are using community version 7.7 and want to upgrade to latest 8.9 LTS developer edition.
I have purchased developer edition licence already.
Please suggest the next process.

Hey there.

This is a public forum so I’d suggest being careful about leaving your phone number.

You’ll need to upgrade to 7.9 LTS and then upgrade to 8.9 LTS

Hi Colin,

Thanks for the reply.

Because i am using community 7.7 version so should I need to follow below steps.

community 7.7 → community 7.9 LTS then upgrade community 8.9 LTS then upgrade to developer edition 8.9 LTS.

Is the above understanding is correct?

Or can I upgrade from community 7.7 to developer edition 8.9 LTS?
If yes then how we can migrate the old data from database to new sonar version?

Regards
Vipin

Hello.

Please don’t double post.

You can upgrade the edition at the same time as the version – in any order (whether it’s when you upgrade to 7.9 or when you upgrade to 8.9). As long as you are still pointing to the same database and follow the Upgrade Guide to the letter, you’ll be fine (the data will be migrated). :slight_smile:
