Finn David Nilsen	Monday 09 January 2006 10:44:10 am My site is running ez ver 3.3.4. Php on my webserver is now ugraded to phph 4.4. This gives fatal errors when running my site... What is the next version of ez I have to ugrade to, without changing my templates? Or have my webhost a wrong config of php? Is it possible to run 3.3.4 on php 4.4?

Take a good look at the upgrade scripts (not only the SQL ones) and if you encounter an issue with one of the upgrade scripts (I remember the need to change one of them, but don't know which one exactly) So - back up your database and settings and templates (or everything for that matter) - copy over a 3.7.2 distribution (or better 3.7.3 which should solve a nasty template bug) - execute all the upgrade scripts from 3.3.4 to the next release and so on (yes quite a lot of them, but you have to) - execute the upgrade scripts from php (here you may encounter the mentioned show stopper, but is a matter of harmless version definitions ) - clear your caches - run eztc.php -s <siteaccess> - cross fingers and reload your site hth --paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans
Ron Stewart	Thursday 12 January 2006 10:04:10 am Hi Paul, Thanks for the post about the upgrade. We are about to make a decision to upgrade EZpublish from version 3.5.1. What is the current recommended version to upgrade to for a Production system? 3.6.x or 3.7.x? Thanks, Ron
Paul Borgermans	Thursday 12 January 2006 11:22:03 am Hi Ron, It depends on the extensions you installed, some are 3.7 compliant, others not (yet). If this is not an issue, go with 3.7.3 with php 4.4.2 for stability. Both are almost ready for release. hth -paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans
