I've installed JR6 on to of my servers for testing
radio1.440music.com/mradio
and
http://216.80.102.45/jr6/

I have been searching for info about upgrading and the info I've found leads to downloads that are no longer available about v4 to v5. I'm only testing I'm still not sure I want to change to the new database, I really like v4 database. But for now I still need to update the database for testing, how or where do I find the files to import the database?

thanks Paul, I found some of that before I posted
I don't find the jamroom4_jrExport_Module for the v4 site, I've installed the module in v6 test site
I'm going through the add-on modules seeing what's what, will URL Mapper be useful if I upgrade?
I'm still not sure I'm making the change to JR6, I'm still using v4 database

Its actually included with the jrImport module. You'll need to FTP to the JR6 site and grab it from the /modules/jrImport/jamroom4_jrExport_Module folder, then copy it to the JR4 site and configure it there.

That module was actually developed for user who had imported their Ning sites to Jamroom, but it is fairly general purpose so could well be useful.
