blackpoint 0902 to 4.5: upgrade or uninstall/reinstall?


Badge +3

From what I have seen, the upgrade path looks the obvious choice. but I just wondered if anyone had any stories that might point to uninstall/reinstall being the better option?


Thanks in adance,

I would personally also opt for the upgrade over the uninstall option.  But in the end I would say it really doesn’t matter which to use.

just to report back, it all went fine, except for 2 issues which I could fix/work around:


The first is that it reset the SecurityLabels table and so I lost my multi-domain additions - I should have picked this up quite quickly, but the error was reported just as a generic 'could not authenticate' message, so it took me a while to backtrack to find it.


The other error was with the Web Designer - I could not get it working under Kerberos (with constrained delegation).  Since K2 and SharePoint were on the same server I could revert to NTLM (no reporting services, so double hops), but I would have liked to have known what was wrong.
