Dear Apollo team,
I'm writing
to you because we need to perform the migration from an old Apollo 2.0.7
software stack to the latest release 2.7.0.
The setup we have is a tomcat 9 server with an Apollo 2.0.7 linked to a MySQL 5.x running on CentOS 7.
As
we need to upgrade this stack I've spent several hours trying to run
the WAR from the old machine on a new Rocky 8 machine / Tomcat 9 without
success, it crashes all the time.
I tried to compile it but the JDK 8 packagse seems unavailable so I tried to use the docker image.
The
docker image works however it uses an internal postgresql server where
we cannot import a MySQL Dump file nor any dump file.
So my question: Regarding our initial setup
- Is the migration of the database mandatory ? (All data on disks can be moved to a new machine)
- Do you know how we could update the Docker image in order to talk to a mysql server ?
- What would be your suggestion regarding our setup ?
Sincerely
Best regards
David
