First upgrade attempt from 1.2.21 -> 1.3.0RC4 == Fail

[..hidden..]

Upgrading 1.2.21 on a Debian squeeze machine with PostgreSQL 8.4.8.

Summarizing the steps, which I script for ease of repeating:

dropdb lsmb13
rm -f ./LedgerUpg/lsmb-to-1.3.sql
dropuser ledgernew
pg_dump -C lsmbprod > ./LedgerUpg/lsmb-to-1.3.sql
sed -i -e's/lsmbprod/lsmb13/g' ./LedgerUpg/lsmb-to-1.3.sql
sed -i -e's/ledgersmb/ledgernew/g' ./LedgerUpg/lsmb-to-1.3.sql
createuser  --no-createdb --no-createrole --no-superuser ledgernew
psql -f ./LedgerUpg/lsmb-to-1.3.sql
psql -f ./LedgerUpg/fix-up-1.2.sql 
cd /usr/local
sudo rm -rf lsmb130/
sudo tar --transform='s/^ledgersmb/lsmb130/' -x -z -f /PATH/TO/projects/thirdparty/LedgerUpg/ledgersmb-1.3.0_rc4.tar.gz 
cd lsmb130
sudo perl Makefile.PL
sudo make
sudo cp /PATH/TO/projects/thirdparty/LedgerUpg/ledgersmb.conf lsmb130/



Then I browse to localhost/lsmb13/setup.pl

Fill in my info and it basically dropped all the tables from the lsmb13 
database and complained about permissions for writing to /dblog_stdout.

My next steps are:

to decide who should own the lsmb130 directories and files;

make sure that $ENV{TEMP} is set where I want it and that it is writable 
to ledgersmb;


My first questions are:

1) when prompted for contrib directory I assumed it should be ./contrib/ 
as a relative path to the root of lsmb130, is that correct?

2) are the default AP and AR accounts the account numbers from the 1.2.21 
DB?



I'll report back as I get more data.
