I've got an Umbraco 7.1.4 website with uSync 2.3.0. I want to upgrade my Umbraco project to 7.4.3 because we need some of the new features. I also want to upgrade uSync to 3.1.4.740 so it's compatible.
The current version of uSync isn't installed with NuGet.
These are my upgrade steps:
Remove uSync 2.3 through the package installer.
Upgrade Umbraco to 7.4.3 with NuGet.
Install uSync 3.1.4.740 with NuGet.
Would the above steps work? Any other suggestions? Thanks for your help!
I think you might need to make sure your .Net version is 4.5.1 as well. I've been using uSync in a test environment for a 7.3.4 site and had an issue initially with it only be a 4.5 .Net version.
normally usync should be ok across an upgrade where the same version of usync works on both (for example v7.4.1 to v7.4.3) as usync will not try to do anything during the upgrade (it checks the IsConfigured flag in umbraco which is set to false during an upgrade).
however between usync versions, and uninstall / reinstall is probably best.
I would say it is also probably best to also remove/rename the usync folder during an upgrade that way when you put the new version of usync onto the site, it will recreate a full sync, and you will ensure everything is set. (or do a full export via the dashboard).

Hi Jeroen,

Yup good one. Definitely need .Net version 4.5.1. Also has some issues with .Net 4.5

Anyone else got some tips?
