Typo3 Database update from typo3 v7.6 to typo3 v11.53

312 Views Asked by At

I want to update typo3 v7.6 to v11.5.3. I copied the files from the latest version to the old installation. The files are updates but I am facing database issues. The DB structure of v11.5.3 is different from v7.6. I need to migrate my data from v7.6 database to v11.53 database. Is there any way I can do it?

The core does only ship migrations for 2 major versions. Therefore you need to switch 1st to version 9 and do all the upgrade steps there and after that you can update to 11 and do the update wizards of 10+11.

All upgrade wizards can either be run via cli or via Install Tool.

Additional code migrations can easily done by using tools like rector


I personally don't care if the the frontend works in the intermediate versions and fix that at the end but as 7.6. is really old (and the used code could even be outdated in those old times) it will take a bit of manual work.
