texte = >What are, if any, the major bugs or bad points involved w/ upgrading to 4.0?Several upgrade problems have been reported here. It's only been a month since version 4 was released, so of course people are still finding new bugs, such as Bob Minor's report today. In my opinion, it is way too early to put version 4 on your production server.Several major (and as-yet undocumented) changes were made to webcat's internal code in this version. These changes can easily prevent your version 3 sites from running under version 4 -- unless you carefully modify your templates, databases, include files, and/or preferences. Check the list archives for details ... >And does anyone know the period of time that one must have purchased 3.0 to >get the 4.0 upgrade for free? We just upgraded less than a year ago.You would have had to purchase version 3 while version 4 was still in beta in order to qualify for a free upgrade, but that's not what you did, so I'm sure you will have to pay for your upgrade. ================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
