ofbiz 9.04 to 10.04 upgrade

[Varun Bhansaly]

Hi,
I am planning to migrate my current ofbiz 9.04 to ofbiz 10.04.
I do have a list of files changed in core 9.04, further most of my code is
in separate components.

Is there any guide pointing out the set of steps to be executed for upgrade
?
It would be helpful if some1 has done something similar & would like to
share the approach.

I would be interested in such a guide as well.
It would be great if some one shares his prior experience on ofbiz upgrades.

Thanks,

my standard procedure is that all customization is in seperate
components in hot-deploy.
1) duplicate the data into a new database.
2) setup the new version in a new folder.
3) copy the hot-deploy components over
4) modify the config files like the 9.04 (note do not copy since some
things have changed.
4a)use new ports so as not to interfere with current version.
5) start up and see what give errors and fix.
6) read the migration page to see what may have to be changed manually.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBTECH/Revisions+Requiring+Data+Migration
7) when I think I have it all working I do #1 again. if no errors then a
set the copied Database as the main one
8) change the vitural servers to the new ports.
9) leave the legacy encase conflicts show-up so have a reference.
