  Metacat has a number of additional settable properties in file
......
587 575 
      <li>build/src/upgrade-db-to-1.2.sql</li>
588 576 
      <li>build/src/upgrade-db-to-1.3.sql</li>
589 577 
      <li>build/src/upgrade-db-to-1.4.sql</li>
578 
      <li>build/src/upgrade-db-to-1.5.sql</li>
590 579 
    </ul>
591 580 
   <p>
592 581 
    So, if you had an existing metacat 1.0 installation and you were upgrading
593 
    to 1.4, you would need to run all three scripts in sequence:
594 
    upgrade-db-to-1.2.sql, upgrade-db-to-1.3.sql, and upgrade-db-to-1.4.sql.
595 
    However, if you were starting from a Metacat 1.3.x
596 
    installation, you would only need to run the upgrade-db-to-1.4.sql script.
597 
    Be sure to use the version of the scripts from the 'build' directory they
582 
    to 1.5, you would need to run all four scripts in sequence:
583 
    upgrade-db-to-1.2.sql, upgrade-db-to-1.3.sql,
584 
    upgrade-db-to-1.4.sql, and upgrade-db-to-1.5.sql.
585 
    However, if you were starting from a Metacat 1.4.x
586 
    installation, you would only need to run the upgrade-db-to-1.5.sql script.
587 
    Be sure to use the version of the scripts from the 'build' directory: they
598 588 
    are customized for your installation in that directory.
