Database migration
Are you ready for 3.0?
Mingle 3.0 will not longer support MySQL database. Mingle will continue to support Postgres and Oracle databases. In order to help our existing customers migrate from MySQL we have some migration options available.
Migrating to Postgres
MySQL to Postgres script
In order to help migrate your existing MySQL 2.3 or 2.3.1 database to Postgres 2.3 or 2.3.1 we have a database migration script available called mingle-dbmigrate-x_x. This tool can be found in <MINGLE_HOME>/tools/mingle-dbmigrate-x_x.zip directory where <MINGLE HOME> is the directory where Mingle 3.0 is installed.
To use this tool, please unzip mingle-dbmigrate-x_x.zip and follow the instructions in <MINGLE_HOME>/tools/mingle-dbmigrate-x_x/README.
If you just wish to migrate your existing projects you may also use the export and import tool described below.
Migrating to Oracle
In order to aid migration to Oracle you may like to use Mingle's export and import tool. If you would like to use this tool to migrate then please contact our support team.
The tool can be used to export all projects on any database and therefore, if you wish to easily export all projects for archive purposes this tool can be used.
