jsantari Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I've got a new site ready to rollout that was built on 2.3.6 - the productions server is php 5.3.28. I was going to upgrade staging to 2.4 and then go live with it but I see a requirement for php 5.3.8? Does this mean I can't move to 2.4 until my hosting company updates their server?

apeisa Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 5.3.28 > 5.3.8 As always, you can play safe take copy or install fresh PW on same environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsantari Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 In my book it would go 5.3.28, 5.3.29, 5.3.3 which is still less the 5.3.8? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apeisa Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Nope, version numbers go like this: 5.3.0 5.3.1 5.3.2 5.3.3 5.3.4 5.3.5 5.3.6 5.3.7 5.3.8 5.3.9 5.3.10 5.3.11 etc... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsantari Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 My bad - of course that's right, it goes sequentially by section - so it's good news, thanks for the clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martijn Geerts Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 @jsantari. More people have problems reading those version numbers (like me), it's not that obvious at first sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renobird Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Yep. Done that one too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renobird Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 OK, so I have a site running PW 2.3.7, and the server is running PHP 5.2.17. There are no plans to upgrade the server to 5.3+ until later this year. Any options for still be able to run 2.4 in this environment? Is it something that *might* work?

totoff Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Apart from PHP matters, is it safe to upgrade from 2.2.3 to 2.4 directly or should this be done in steps? I have such a case here ... Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horst Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 The only thing I can think of is the admin theme. This has changed, but you can still work with the old way, (needs to uninstall the default theme first, under modules) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoff Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Thanks horst, I'll simply switch to the new default theme than. Doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
