XML profil file from CA 1.7.17 compatible with CA 2.0.9?

Hi!

I've a Raspberry Pi 3 model B, which is running under the newest "Pi OS": Debian 1:6.12.34-1+rpt1_bookworm (2025-06-26) aarch64 GNU/Linux.

I installed all that is needed to run the last release of CollectiveAccess (apache2, php, mariaDB, phpmyadmin... that's often called a "LAMP" server).

This is not to run a collection management site in production (I think it would be too slow), but simply to have a small transportable complete server that I will use as a demonstration/sandbox for practical works in my collections management lectures with my students. (And also a little to see if a cheap Raspberry Pi would be able to run a CollectiveAccess instance properly.😉)

I exported the XML profil file from my production instance of CA 1.7.17, in order to copy it in this new version CA 2.0.9, but at the step of running the install step, I've this error message:

Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: XML profile validation failed in /var/www/html/ca2/providence/install/inc/Parsers/XMLProfileParser.php:81 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/html/ca2/providence/install/inc/Installer.php(158): Installer\Parsers\XMLProfileParser->parse() #1 /var/www/html/ca2/providence/install/inc/Installer.php(123): Installer\Installer->parseProfile() #2 /var/www/html/ca2/providence/install/inc/page2.php(58): Installer\Installer->__construct() #3 /var/www/html/ca2/providence/install/index.php(152): require_once('...') #4 {main} thrown in /var/www/html/ca2/providence/install/inc/Parsers/XMLProfileParser.php on line 81

So my question: is the XML profil file exported from CA 1.7.17 compatible with CA 2.0.9?
Or is there some script to apply to, or things to change for that compatibility?

Thank you 🙂
