Thanks Rick, You are saying, I have to export it at first. Initially, I just built 1.1 in 32bit mode (with the identical db library). With that, I even was just using the same directory and it worked fine. So, I guess I have to go the export/import way.

If so, then yes. You will first have to export your databases to ldif e.g. for a Fedora DS 1.0.4 installation: cd /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/db ../db2ldif -n userRoot -a `pwd`/userRoot.ldif ../db2ldif -n NetscapeRoot -a `pwd`/NetscapeRoot.ldif ... repeat for each database instance The migration script will look for a file called /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/db/<db instance name>.ldif and use that rather than the binary files. You should also run the migration script with the -x option to force it to use cross platform mode. > > Thanks, > -Reinhard > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > -- > > -- > Fedora-directory-users mailing list > Fedora-directory-users at redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users >
