I was not sure if I really wanted to upgrade from 8.2 to 8.3 after I have read all the "horror" stories about upgrades that went wrong.
But some features in 8.3 (Acronis) was needed, and I had to upgrade.
Here is what I did to have a "perfect" upgrade:
1) Full backup the server (Acronis)
2) Backup through Plesk Backup
3) Plesk Reconfigurator : Check everything. It found some minor NTFS security settings, which I changed.
4) SmarterStat Check
5) Start the installer exe file, and was nervous the next 30 min
6) Reboot after the installation was done.
After reboot I checked everything like webmail, control panel, sql etc. Everything was just fine and running.
Well I had many forum posting open with good advises from other "unlucky" upgraders, under the upgrade process. Luckely I didn't need them.
Have a nice day. Greetings from Sisimiut, Greenland.
