Upgrading question
Posted: 02 Dec 2013, 19:39
Hello,
I am currently running 5.0.3490.beta2 on a Windows 7 x64 media server.
I would like to upgrade to the most recent build (5.0.3800). Somewhere in between the build I am on and the current build, I recall seeing build notes about drastic changes (including changing references to "subsonic" to "madsonic", major database changes, etc.) that require a complete reconfiguring of all the settings.
Assuming a final build (of 5.0) is forthcoming pretty soon, will it have the required functionality to upgrade existing installations without having to do a manual reconfiguring?
The reason I am asking this is that if there is no plan at all of programatically "taking care" of the upgrade process, I'll bite the bullet now and follow the instructions to upgrade manually (if this is so, can somebody please post instructions to upgrade from the version I am on to the most recent build). However, if the plan is to include a seamless upgrade mechanism as part of the final build of 5.0, I'll probably just wait for it.
Thanks,
MediocreFred.
