Posted August 10, 20186 yr 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 ?
August 10, 20186 yr 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.
August 11, 20186 yr Author 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 ! Edited August 11, 20186 yr by Surendra.S
August 16, 20186 yr 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
