Migration nightmare....

[Fabio Barone]

I am probably too stupid for RoR and refinery

After having spent innumerable hours trying to fix the application which
was running fine on rails 2.3.5 and refinerycms 0.9.6.31,
I decided I wanted to try deploying everything on heroku.
Our client is yelling at us claiming sales losses.

As I have already a running 0.9.7.12 in my local machine which is deployed on heroku,
I didn't install latest version, cause I wanted to avoid rails3 etc mess.

So I first created a new version of the app using
refinerycms herokuversion

now I am trying to move everything over from my old app.

But there's no vendor folder.
Then I am reminded of my plugins I created.
Now I am totally confused.

Can someone help me on what are the steps required in order to move my
previous 0.9.6.31 installation over to 0.9.7.12, which I then want to run on heroku???
Or should I do something else?

I am seriously very concerned.
I mean, while refinerycms is no doubt one of the best tools I ever used,
deployment of ruby on rails applications is a nightmare.
Too many gem versions, etc.

Certainly the mistake was to go with the hosting we chose, but to move between
versions is really not transparent to me.

I am also certainly a bit frustrated, I apologize.

After having finally fixed the problems with our hosting this has become futile for me.

I apologize for the 'slight' panicking tone in my emails. :(

Nevertheless it might help others (or me in the future) to post something
on how to do such migrations?

Thanks and sorry to all
