Upgrade files for SugarCE 5.2.0f?

Hello, 

I have Sugar CE 5.2.0f (Build 5688).

I understand CE is discontinued, but I need the upgrade files to push it to version 6. 

Two questions:

1 - Can someone tell me if the upgrade files for 5.2.0 would work for 5.2.0f

2 - If the answer is no, how can I upgrade to 6.x?

The old files from sourceforge can be found here:

SugarCRM - Browse /OldFiles at SourceForge.net 

There are no files to upgrade 5.2.0f in that repository. I double checked.

Thank you.

  • Hi QQ QQ,

    If your goal is to migrate to a supported version of Sugar, I would encourage you to treat CE as a third-party CRM and focus your efforts on migrating your data to the supported version rather than attempting to upgrade.

    I hope this is helpful.

  • It is not sure we'll migrate to a supported version, just a possiblity. 

    My questions thus remain, but thanks for the advice.

    I agree with Patrick McQueen's suggestion of a migration versus a series of upgrades based on the experiences of other community members.

    However, I checked through some other posts in the community around upgrading 5.2.0 versions and it appears others have had success upgrading with a variety of 5.2.0 versions, so the 5.2.0>5.5.1 upgrader is the file you should be targeting. The suggested upgrade paths can be found here: Upgrade Paths for On-Site Installations which has been a running list updated for many years and promotes is the most direct paths between versions. 

    I hope this helps.

  • Yes, the upgrade files for 5.2.0 work for 5.2.0f.

    Some time ago I collected all upgrade paths in a little picture, which I attach here.
