Well... although the database loaded alright, it is unusable. I get an empty first page and error messages like:

Very annoying....
By the way, I do not expect any of you to have a solution for this... I guess we just have to use the old databases on a different install.
With the databases unable to be loaded into new versions, and postmaster not being allowed to run more than once on a machine, I guess this means you have to ditch all of your data every 1-2 years when software must be updated ;)
In this way, one can only use it as a test environment.
