Surendra.S Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 Hi All, I am currently on IPB 4.3.3 Should I upgrade to IPB 4.3.5 ? Anyone done the upgrade and faced any problems during upgrade ? or is it straight-forward ? My only doubt is that IPB 4.3.5 was released just 3 days back (8th August) and so should I wait till any upgrade problems reported ?
Joel R Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 4.3.5 was a pretty hefty maintenance release and fixed a lot of issues, so I would say it's probably a better release to be on.

And not only with the forum, but with all the other stuff that you have running in your server. Latest versions always fix security issues, if any, and iron out all known reported bugs.
Steph40 Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 Regardless of bug fix, it did not break any app or plugin for me so I say do it.
Surendra.S Posted August 11, 2018 Author Posted August 11, 2018 Thank You All ! I completed the upgrade quite easily without any problems. Did not see any problems so far ! Let me test for few days !
dragonfly411 Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 I got an error that InnoDB only supports one FULLTEXT index per table. Had to manually delete the "index_title" index in ipb_core_search_index to continue. Running MySQL 5.7.23
