ucjohn Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 If I install 4.1 on my website when the full version of 4.1 releases reinstall the entire stuff all over again? I'm hindering on leaving it at 4.0 or just going to 4.1.. I know they add a disclaimer on there site when downloading beta to discourage it.. I just looking for a solid answer I've heard you can by certain people and some people say no... sorry.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevengeFNF Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Quote This is a pre-release version which is not ready for use on a live site. Only continue if you are happy to participate in testing pre-release software, and do not attempt to install it on a live site. It will NOT BE POSSIBLE to upgrade between this release and the final version. Technical support is not available for pre-release versions.

ucjohn Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 I did in fact read that part @RevengeFNF but some people kept saying different.. Anyways thanks for your reply I'll stick to 4.0 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyF Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I guess its intended so if there are issues Support does not have to be involved with trying to fix broken updates from Beta to 'Final' Those with a bit of know-how and do not mind 'getting involved' would likely be able to do it anyway. FWIW: I upgraded a test board from 4.0.x to the 4.1.beta and have kept updating it to each new beta, I'll also update it to 'Final' and that way if there are any issues it can be worked through on a test site first.

Ugur Kaya Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 You can try to override your current installation and than run the upgrader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyF Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I'd be doing mine anyway but as I say I'd do it on a localhost test first, fix any issues then do the live one so I was prepared. As I put it is so support does not have tickets from those using an unsupported beta release that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RevengeFNF Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 And you will risk your live site with it? And if it's not possible to update to final? IPS already said it will not support it, so you will be in your own in that case. Unless IPS is in good mood and decide to help you, you will be doomed, but for god sake, wait for the final. Never run betas in a live site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyF Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 FWIW, two test boards (one with all apps and one with just a couple) neither exploded on going from B9 to B10 then to 'Final' ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
