[GNC] Upgrading to 5.3 from 2.6.15

[larry johnston]

We started the upgrade process from 2.6.15. The upgrade from 2.6.15 to
2.6.21 and from 2.6.21 to 3.11 seemed to go ok but the upgrade from 3.11 to
4.14 sees to have hit a snag. When we open 4.14 we get a dialog box that
states: 'There are some predefined actions available that most new users
prefer to get started with GnuCash. Select one of these actions from below
and click the OK button or press the Cancel button if you don't want to
perform any of them.'

The options are: Create a new set of accounts
                             Import my QIF files
                              Open the new user tutorial

Since we are not new users we chose Cancel but none of our files were
available to use.

We then chose the tutorial but did not find anything that seemed to
address our problem.

Is this the normal way 4;14 upgrades? Do we have to set up a new set of
accounts? Can we import files from our 3.11 backup? Should we reinstall
3.11 and try again?

TIA,

Larry
