Morgin Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Running 3.4. Want to finally upgrade to 4. My server is running ubuntu 12.04LTS. I am using default repos, so my versions of apache and php are quite dated (albeit continue to receive security updates backported under the lts program). What is the best strategy to go from 12.04LTS (php 5.3, apache 2.2) to 16.04LTS (php 7, apache 2.4)? My plan was to spin up a new VPS with a fresh ubuntu install, get it set up properly with current updates, and then copy over my web files and database and run the converter. However, I understood from a few other threads here that perhaps it wouldnt be the smartest decision to run conversion of 3.4 under php7. How did other people do a major OS update at the same time as a jump from 3.4 - 4? I also have a number of tables in MYISAM - does the converter take care of changing over to INNODB, or do I have to do that manually. If manually, ... how?
