From classical to orthogonal persistence

I am trying to update my canisters from classical to orthogonal persistence, I tried to get help from AI, no success, I am just getting back to the place where I start. I have important data in my canisters så mode = reinstall wont work, but it seems to be the only way so, my task now is to deploy my canisters as classical persistence with new export import functions, and manually import, an after upgrade export the data back.Note preupgrade, and postupgrade did not work either, they did not trigger.

Sorry, forgot the error-message “The replica returned a rejection error: reject code CanisterError, reject message Error from Canister Canister called ic0.trap with message: ‘Detected implicit upgrade from classical orthogonal persistence to enhanced orthogonal persistence. Recompile with explicit flag --enhanced-orthogonal-persistence and redeploy to enable this irreversible migration.’“

Any rec?

Did you try to recompile with the new flag?

The main thing to pay attention to is if you do or do not have top level params marked with stable or transient…when you switch to orthogonal things that have no explicit declaration change from transient to stable…so it will barf if you have some illegal stables. Recommendation: explicitly maker everything then recompile with the flag.
