Hi,

I have two sets of boards I'm contemplating upgrading to version 7. The one I care about more is 6.5.4, and I'm guessing I won't have too much trouble getting there from here.

But the other is a 2002 version, number 6.0.3. The oldest version available for download from the members area is 6.5.5. In the UPGRADING.html file in the 6.5.5 download, it says that I need to get to 6.4.1 before I can upgrade to 6.5.5.

So am I just S.O.L. and unable to upgrade at all from 6.0.3?

The instructions can be a bit confusing. Basically you just go down to your current version in the UPGRADING.html file, and then work your way up, running each altertable that there is a link for. Once you get to version 6.4.1, then there is a new method of upgrading with the install/upgrade.php script from there.

As you work your way up, it will give you information on exactly what you need to do until you get to 6.5.5.

You know, I wondered why there where so many altertables there...
