In order to install UBB.threads version 7 your server will need to meet the following requirements:

Minimum version of PHP: 4.3
Minimum version of MySQL: 4.0

is it tested under mySQL5 and php5.1x ?

Yes. I'm using the latest version of php and mysql for my development environment.

as am I

Sounds good

So what happens if I try to run it on mysql 3.23? My php is version 4.3.

How hard is it to upgrade mysql and will it interfere with my other boards if I go ahead and upgrade? I have two existing 6.5.2 boards running on the same box that I cannot interrupt while I test out the new version.

What you can do is install a webserver on your local machine to test with. I typically have a working webserver on my local machine for development purposes.

Thanks. I've never done this. I'll have to look into it.

Upgrading MySQL isn't too bad if it's your own server. Your 6.5 threads will run under MySQL 4 with no problems whatsoever, just not MySQL 5.

Yes, I have a full dedicated server with GoDaddy.

I can pay them to do it. But it shouldn't be that hard to upgrade I guess. I just wanted to make sure that the upgrade wouldn't interfere with the other boards. Well, other than the time I have to close them to do the upgrade.

I'm sure there is an upgrade tutorial on the mysql site?

Just to confirm; you "guarantee" no problems with mysql 4.0 and threads 6.5.2 right?
