Migrating from digikam 1.2 - resent

[Alessandro Dentella]

Please, is there someone who can point me to documentation or can give
me some hints on this migrations?

Should I be able to just switch version and see alll old data/images?

Hi,

I'm upgrading an old, 1.2 digikam installation. It's now on a server
that I mean to switch off.

Can someone point me to documentation to migrate it to 5+ digkam?. Do
I need to first migrate to intermediate releases?

I tried to start 5.4 and add "local album" but it complained in many
ways and I can't even see my images.

Currently I have the images in the same path on both servers, but I
think I understood db schema are different, is it true?


Thanks in advance
sandro


PS: A couple of months ago I started this migration and I believe I
    managed to see the images but I also wanted to migrate to
    mysql+nas, but I thought in that occasion digikam version was 4.4
    (I took the kde version...)
