There now is a symlink from the former to the +latter. Previously, there were symlinks from inside +/usr/share/phpbb3/www/images/ to /var/lib/phpbb3. Since we had to make +more and more things writable via the web, the entire directory had to +be moved. If there are problems, make sure to check if this +modification happened alright. Also make sure to correctly change the +corresponding 'Alias' directive in your webserver config where +necessary. + +If you did not choose to use dbconfig-common in the older package (or +when upgrading) you may still use the provided install folder, which +contains the upstream install/update utilities. However, with these +you are on your own. + +Upgrade from older major versions +================================= + +Upgrades from phpBB version 2 are not supported, however, for some +hints concerning a manual update from phpBB2 (etch), see +http://bugs.debian.org/550321#25. + +Switching from non-Debian install +================================= + +Upgrading from non-Debian installed versions of phpBB is currently not +supported. + + +______________________________________________________________________ +If you have anything to add, please report to the phpbb maintainers, +so they can add useful tips to this file. -- cgit v1.2.3
