Restoring 2.4.7 backup into 3.0.2? Restore 2.4.7 linux into 2.4.7 Windows?

Hi all, We are still not able to get our OTRS up and running again. We had version 2.4.7 working but after an upgrade to 3.0.2 nothing is working again. I am trying multiple things to get it running again, but I am almost out of options now. One thing I still want to try is install 3.0.2 with a clean install on a clean system (Ubuntu, OpenSuSe, etc) and after that import the backup of the 2.4.7. Is that somehow possible? Or can you only import the backup of 2.4.7 on a 2.4.7 install? If that's the case, is it worth a try to install 2.4.7 again on a clean machine and upgrade it to 3.0.2? Last question for now is if it's possible to import the 2.4.7 backup created on a OpenSuse 11.2 system into a 2.4.7 system installed on a Windows platform? We don't have much knowledge on Linux so when we can use OTRS on Windows, it would be great. Can anyone help us? Met vriendelijke groet / Kind regards / Mit freundlichem Gruß, Erik

Hi Erik,
yes, you can backup the database + configuration settings from the
Linux machines and load that on a Windows machine. Of course, minor
adjustments to the configuration file (paths!) will be needed, but the
database dump is fully usable on a Windows MySQL database as well.
I just did a conversion the other way around for a client: Windows >>
Linux. That was a breeze.
