    You should be OK going from old(revolution branch) to new(2.0 branch) although admittedly I’ve not tried this lately. As revo matures into a GA release Provisioner will be updated to match this at which point we will have a stable baseline, until then you may get a few funnies depending on how far apart the installs are in time.

    I’m a little confused

    "Revolutin brach" is the version that I can download from modxcms.com site (Revolution 2.0.0-RC-1 (expected Spring 2010)

    "2.0 branch" is new version with all fix/updates from last version


    The 2.0 is final and "on working" version with all updates

    Is it OK?

      Yes, the ’bleeding edge’ if you like and as such is undergoing continual testing as new features are added/bugs fixed, some of these features may alter the JSON data returned by the processors to the Provisioner component, which at the mo wouldn’t know this and so might not behave as expected.
        Use MODx, or the cat gets it!

            I’ve seen that in my svn version I’ve a "_build" folder.... Do I’ve to build the project before overwrite my old (revo) version?? or I’ve only simply to overwrite my version old-revo version (without consider _build folder)?

            Thanks

              I’ve made other tests

              I’ve seen the "_build" folder....my question is this: if I’ve an existing version of (old) Revo and I want to install/activate new version (downloaded from SVN), Do I have only to overwrite my old-revo version with new Revo files without consider _build folder?

              Thanks

                Build the SVN export (php transport.core.php), then copy all the folders over your old revo installation and run setup (upgrade).

                (you can remove _build folder, it’s not needed)

                  This action will also update my existing "old Revo" DB ... adding new features/fix/updated??

                  only a final question:

                  in transport.core.php and transport.data.php I show something like this

                  if (!defined(’XPDO_DSN’))
                  define(’XPDO_DSN’, ’mysql:host=localhost;dbname=modx;charset=utf8’);


                  if my DB has another name Do I have to modify these information???

                  There are other things to check/modify in these 2 files?? (only in these 2 files??)
