Thanks team.

As I would have expected it was a simple and clean update on my testbed machine following https://www.phpbb.com/support/docs/en/3 ... date_full/.

Planning underway on when to update my production boards. At this point I'm planning to stay running on PHP 7.4.

Thanks to everyone who made this release possible. I appreciate your dedication.

This was the release I've been waiting for for some time now, for the simple fact that it has improved MySQL 8 support which will allow me to finally use TLS 1.3 (with PHP 7.4). Now I can plan on moving on from MySQL 5.7 with full confidence. PHP 8 support is also a very welcomed addition.

Great work, as always.

I just got around to updating from 3.2.8 to 3.3.2 the other week. ha.
from 3.3.2 to 3.3.3, would uploading just the changed files work well? Complicated? Is a full install still what's recommended?

[Kailey]

Our recommended path of upgrading within 3.3.x is the full package instructions.

I just updated from phpBB 3.3.2 to 3.3.3. There were no problems with my localhost test environment, but my production server had a change in behavior reporting the version information.

Neither clearing my cache/ directory (from the command line) nor restarting apache could change the Administration Control Panel reported version. It was warning me that the software was not up to date (version 3.3.2).

Finally, I forced an update check as System --> Check for updates and the status changed to 3.3.3.

There were no other issues.

Hi all,

New here and new to phpbb but just updated my new forum from 3.3.2 to 3.3.3.
I chose the changed files package and worked my way down the list.
I noticed the phpbb/install/module/install_database/task folder in the phpBB-3.3.2_to_3.3.3 update package is empty.

Is it supposed to be empty?

Thanks!

Mac
