<p>In seldom cases, Chamilo will generate a series of problems after a migration
. This list is a helper designed mainly by <a href="http://www.beeznest.com/" target="_blank">BeezNest</a>
after its many migration jobs assisting large companies to migrate this critical piece of software.</p>

<h2><a name="1.Version-specific-issues"></a>1. Version specific issues</h2>
<p>Sadly, some issues happen over certain migrations and, so far, the difficulty of
fixing things is still less than the difficulty of knowing exactly what
to do to improve the migration script for all scenarios</p>
<h2><a name="2.Documents"></a>2. Documents</h2>
<ul>
<li>The worst that could happen is a change of codification while
migrating from 1.8.5 to 1.8.8.4. Codification problems are nightmares
because you generally get a limited number of characters you can
freely change without affecting already existing files. Scrips can
be made to ananlyse and fix most of the problems, but you will
still need a lot of manual review before you can be sure you
eliminated all problems</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="3.Database-entries"></a>3. Database entries</h2>
<ul>
<li>Some users reported problems with quizzes: when migrating from
1.8.5 to 1.8.8.4, the quiz_question table has a question_order
field filled with 1's. This generates a bug when using exercises
marked random, as you only ever get one question to the test.
<b>Solution:</b> update the question_order field to have sequential numbers.</li>
