I have installed Sitecore Commerce Server(ver. 11.3) and I need to migrate all data from the previous version of Commerce Server(it is 11.2). Just back up and restore doesn't work, I got following error message:
"Application is not compatible with '11.200' version of 'Product Catalog' resource. Expected resource version is '11.300'"
Also, I tried to follow section "Breaking Changes" from this manual: http://commercesdn.sitecore.net/SCpbCS81/releasenotes/en-us/index.html , but it doesn't help, too.
What are the best practices of upgrading Sitecore Commerce Server?
Any help will be appreciated.

I have recently upgraded Sitecore from 6.6 version to 8.0 update -4.
And started upgrading WFFM module but I was getting some error related with analytics.
So I planned to install fresh WFFM 8.0 module in Sitecore, while installing it's throwing an error "Unrecognized Guid format".
I already tried with removing ItemNameValidation setting in web.config file. But still not working for me.
Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks,

There was another issue with upgrading and Unrecognized Guid format error.
Check this link if it helps: Sitecore LinkDatabase throws System.FormatException: Unrecognized Guid format.
You just need to add an .aspx page from the bottom of this page to your website folder and check if there are any items with broken Tracking field.
If there are any, you open them in Content Editor, click Goals, click Attributes. And that's it.
I currently have the task of updating a Sitecore Instance 6.6 with SIP 3.2. The target is reaching Sitecore 7.0, so we can use Item Buckets.
The problem is when I update Sitecore to 7.0, it doesn't work with SIP 3.2, because assembly references doesn't match anymore and Sitecore 7.0 runs on .NET 4.5, where SIP 3.2 runs on .NET 3.5. So the Sitecore Backend does not work anymore and I cannot update the SIP.
If I update the SIP to 4.0 (which works with Sitecore 7.0) before updating the Sitecore Instance to 7.0, I get a similar problem.
Any idea what I can do to update both together? Or is there another way of achiving Sitecore 7.0 with SIP 4.0?
I would recommend uninstalling SIP first. You can achieve this is via removing the code files and configs from the solution manually - you can try leaving the Sitecore Items there as they shouldn't cause issues.
It will be helpful to redownloading the SIP package, unzip to see the files and view which files and configs it contains, then remove those from your solution.
A simpler way if you have Sitecore Rocks is to create an Anti-package - https://www.sitecore.net/nl-be/learn/blogs/technical-blogs/trevor-campbell/posts/2013/02/28-days-of-sitecore-rocks-package-management-part-1.aspx
Once you have removed SIP, complete your upgrade of Sitecore and confirm your site serves correctly afterwards.
Then its a matter of installing the correct version of SIP for the version of Sitecore 7 you have upgraded to. This will mitigate the issue of assemblies being different versions.
I would recommend backing up your databases before the upgrade as best practice but to also retrieve any SIP Item you may later need.
I am currently trying to install ContentBox 2 on my machine.
I am using ColdFusion 9.0.2, MySQL 5.6 and IIS 7 on Windows 7 Professional.
I have created database named “contentbox” and created a datasource named “contentbox” for it
as mentioned by the ContentBox documentation.
When I try to setup ContentBox, I’m presented with a datasource wizard page.
The wizard successfully verifies the datasource and gives me option to continue the setup.
On clicking the “continue installation” button I get the following error message:
Table cb_entry defined for cfc contentbox.model.content.Entry does not exist.
I’ve already given read/write permission to all the mentioned files and folders.
Can you help me sort out this issue.
I finally got the problem solved.
I contacted Ortus Solutions support. They advised to use ContentBox version 2.1 (Bleeding edge release) as Version 2.0 has some issues with CF9.
I have downloaded and installed the new version.
And it seems to be working fine.
Hi I am getting this error when I am trying to install Social Connected 2.1 in sitecore 7.2
Could not find configuration node:
contentSearch/configuration/defaultIndexConfiguration/analyzer
Could not find solution.
Can anyone help me out with this.
Thanks in advance!
Sitecore does have a workaround in place for the known issues:
Using Social Connected 2.1 with Sitecore CMS 7.2 Reference number:
408378
Social Connected 2.1 isn’t compatible with Sitecore CMS 7.2.
Workaround:
Install Social Connected module on Sitecore 7.2 rev. 140228.
Install Social Connected 2.1 rev. 140113 using the Installation Wizard. During
installation, you'll get the following error message: "Could not find
configuration node: content Search/configuration/defaultIndex
Configuration/analyzer". Close the message. Make required changes* to
configuration files. Open the Installation Wizard and install the
module package again. Use the Skip option for items and files
conflicts. Fix Social Connected module that is already installed on
Sitecore 7.2 rev. 140228 Make required changes* to configuration
files.
* Required changes to the Sitecore.Social.config file:
Change the analyzer tag from
<analyzer ref="contentSearch/configuration/defaultIndexConfiguration/analyzer" />
to the following...
<analyzer ref="contentSearch/indexConfigurations/defaultLuceneIndexConfiguration/analyzer" />
Add the "true" tag to the
"socialSearch/configuration" section.
* You can find the official Sitecore workaround / KB article here *
So you can use Social Connected 2.1 with this fix.
I don't have any good news for you. Social Connected module doesn't have any version which is compatible with Sitecore 7.2 version.
Here is the full table of the modules compatibility: http://sdn.sitecore.net/products/sitecore%20v5/sitecore%20cms%206/installation/modules%20compatibility.aspx.
The answer I've got from Sitecore Support is
There is currently no supported by CMS 7.2 Social Connected. Reasons are - many breaking changes.
EDIT:
According to the latest news, there are now versions of Social Connected supporting Sitecore up to 7.5:
