Invision Board 4 on premise - MariaDB?

Hi everyone,

I am forced to finally upgrade to Invision Board 4 as my hoster is going to remove PHP 5.x support and Invision Board 3.x does not seem to run on PHP 7.3

Which is fine, as I wanted to upgrade a long time ago. Unfortuately, my hoster is also removing MySQL altogether, replacing it with MariaDB.

Does anyone have experience with running IP.Board 4 with MariaDB and if so which version and what are the caveats?

MariaDB is fully interchangeable with MySQL in terms of IPS. You should have no issues. Check your host with the IPS4 compatibility tester before proceeding.

Here are the minimum versions required (from the client area download):

  • PHP 7.1.0 or above (7.3.0 or above recommended).
  • MySQL 5.5.3 or above (5.6.2 or above recommended).

Here's the IPS4 compatibility checker:

For the MariaDB versions that correspond with the above, see:
