Upgrade EPiServer CMS 6 R2 to EPiServer 7 (7.5)

Vote:
 

Hi EPiServer Pro

Has anyone tried to Upgrade EPiServer CMS 6 R2 to EPiServer 7 manually?

Sadly the Upgrade with the EPiServer Deployment Center fails with a SQL-Errormessage. Seems that the script can't find some column names like the GUID. 

I could consider to reverse engineer the upgrade scripts. But they seem very complex and I'm not really familiar with the powershell script language. And if someone out there already done that, I would gladly appreciate that.

Thanx for any hints on this matter.

What is the error you get when attempting to upgrade through the Deployment Center ?

Sounds like you need to create a support ticket?

Thank you for your answer.

After those actions: 

EPiServer CMS Deployment Center
Upgrade site with SQL Server database (Version 7.0.586.1)
Show All Sites -> Choose
After clicking through the form I get the following error message:

Error - Ungültiger Spaltenname 'ContentGUID'. (means something like invalid column name)

If there isn't a short solution for this, I will open a support ticket.

If you don't check "Show All Sites", can you still find your site?
