One of the goals of the BIRT project is to continue to move the project forward while remaining compatible with previous versions to the greatest extent possible. This guide covers any known migration issues when moving from an older version of BIRT to the latest version.

If you know of any migration issues not documented on this page, please add them.

BIRT Engine API: Moving from BIRT 2.6 to BIRT 3.7 or Later

In BIRT 3.7 the Engine deployment and API have been updated based on community feedback to make it easier to deploy BIRT. This has resulted in some changes to the Engine API and file locations. If you are moving to BIRT 3.7 or later from an earlier release you will need to make some changes. These will be documented on this Wiki page as soon as they specific steps are known and tested.
