If you want to do a fresh install and just re-import your existing
content into the new system, then this is possible.
Just install the new opencms version into a new web application folder
and a new database.

After it is installed you can use the export function of the Database
Tools in the Admin view to export your content from the old system into
a zip file.
This content can then be imported into your new system by using the
import function of the database tools.

Modules can be exported from the module management of the old server'
Admin view and then re-imported into the new server.
